I think that instead of abolishing levels, it should be made so you can only wear items that are within a certain range of what you can enchant them to.
Similar to how you can't use weapons with more improvements than you can handle, you should only be able to wear items say, within +2 of your ability.
So say you can enchant something up to +2, you could wear armor and items up to +4.
This would stop people from just getting +12 everything right away.
