I haven't found the answer to this anywhere, hopefully somebody can give me some sort of feedback to this and apologies in advance if I just missed an explanation / answer to this somewhere. Yesterday I ran through a few things to get some pinnacle gear, vanguards, gambit, etc. but when I got the reward, it was not increase in power level compared to what I had. I was at power level 1588 (with 15 coming from artifact), every piece of gear I had was at minimum 1573, some of it was 1574 but the "pinnacle reward" I got was the same level as the items I already had. example: my boots that were 1573 and the pinnacle reward was boots that were 1573.
I've never noticed this happen before and it happened 2-3 rewards in a row yesterday and I don't know if this is normal or if something was busted or what? Anybody have any insight by chance?
