Simple, i got the steel armor recipe and got heavy armor to level 4 then tryed to use your tokens to make tier 5, they came out tier 1, so i scraped them and crafted them at the work bench like a normal no modded player does........ As i said above its not just steel armor, its any item made from your tokens, they all come out level 1, dont matter if its the augger, leather armor, or the ak-47, dont matter if you got the skill to craft them above level 1, your tokens only make level 1, making most of the tokens useless but for getting stuff to scrap for parts. after all level 1 steel pick axe, is junk and a massive stamina drainer, same for steel armor, since lvl 2 of the tier before them has the same stats, but far less stamina drain.
