For sure it would be a easier, but 4 levels above is your limit really before the enemy become 'red' and very hard to hit.

I suppose the trouble with getting the best gear for your level - is that you will often gain experience in doing so and grow out of them faster. With heirlooms, you get the equivalent best gear for your level every time you level up. It's a nice luxury
