      ring is constant - some items do require minimum map difficulty levels.
     
     Yes, I recall from what I've read that you are correct that the likelyhood is
completely constant based on difficulty, with the fact that many items requite a
minimum map difficulty levels. I agree with that both reducing the number of
items at high levels, but also increasing the chance of more valuble appearing
to a point that getting a ring of ruling or something like that at the *highest*
floor of a TC is equal to of better than currently despite the reduced number of
items.
