The slider on recipes

So yesterday I was offered 10 million infamy to use 200 merits to make a low level proc.

Apart from the price (they're dreaming), I didnt think the slider effected the level of them, that is the recipe always went to max level.

EG I get a LoTG+recharge, my character is lvl 50, so even if I put the slider to 25, I get a lvl 50 IO recipe. (or whatever the highest level drop is for the IO)

Thats how its always worked for me with the random roles, but never tried it for a fixed price recipe.

So does slider work to pick the exact level of the drop?

(if I was at home puter 'd just go test but ... )

it will give you the recipe at either the recipe lvl cap or your current lvl

the slider is used to get IOs that fall within that lvl range

for example if you moved the slider to lvl 20, you could get any IOs that overlapped at that lvl, but they would give you the recipe as high as whatever your lvl was or the highest lvl of the recipe

I estimate 180 mill for 240 merits. At least that's what I would pay for 12 random rolls from a sub-level-41 character.
