Getting rare mats depends on level?
I think you get decrease reward if you are over level. Try to farm mobs near your level.
But you will still get high level gear drops as a level 80 and they will salvage into T5 and T6 mats.

1) rare mats will match your level. Under a certain level, there are no rare items.
2) no decrease on reward if you are over level. In fact, you can get level 80 rares in Queensdale, which you cannot get at level 20…
3) Opening chests at lower levels: the big ticket items, like exotics, are always equivalent to what you’d get if you opened at level 80. Rare items are in the same range of level as your character. This is the same with all rarities below rare, too. (Why opening chests with a level 53 character is done, to get the linen scraps and still get direct t6 mat drops)
4) I’ve received an ascended chest from Tequatl with a level FOUR character (yes, it’s possible – reviving and using turrets).
