Any IIR / IIQ penalties for running low level content?

I've reviewed the available documentation on the subject, but then my wife hit me in the head and I forgot it all. Could somebody please refresh my memory?

There is an IIQ penalty on currency for being overleveled, at the very least, iirc. I honestly don't remember the values though, but the range effectively gets larger at higher level, so you're allowed to be a bit more overleveled later.
IIQ for Currency (orbs) drops I believe 2% for every level above 2 levels over the area level, if I'm correct.

So if the area level is 20:
At level 22 there is no penalty.
At level 23 there is a 2% drop penalty for currency items.
At level 33 there is a 20% drop penalty for currency items.

Right, right, but what about NOT currency things, like items. Like... uniques.

I don't think there's a penalty on items at all...just currency and XP.
Don't think? We need to know these things.

Currency penalty applies. Running low level content you dont get any currency.

No penalty for items. Farm Normal Merveil and you'll get plenty of low level rares and uniques.

Wait. Fuck. Is there diminishing returns on IIQ on maps?
IGN : Reamus
no there are no diminshing returns, getting twice more quantity will result in twice more drops
Wait, are we sure?
