Is that really such an issue?
IMO anything that incites even a brief character interaction is a good thing.

If we come out of a conclusion that +5 weapons for really low level characters break pve, then yeah 100% an issue, as we've changed nothing if we leave this exploit avenue available.

Leaving high level characters able to buff low level characters in ways they can't do themselves does change something because it incentivises interaction and familiarity that wouldn't have happened otherwise.
I thought we were an RP server, not a PvP/PvE server.

I'm not saying that promoting interaction is bad of coruse... but..
When it's literally any character with 15 lore and lvl 17+, it can be cheapened out. Sure, it requires the interaction but barely any, and you've stuck with the initial problem that low level characters can steamroll early pve with +5 weapons. Does it worth it really.

Change scroll interaction, not spell interaction. Not to continue the honored trandition of whataboutism, but this change harmed melee classes whole-sale, especially dex melee classes.
