Now both 1* and 2* armor max out at level 50, whereas a 3* will max out at lvl 70.
Now lets say you have a level 51 armor and a level 61 armor, you should get a level 56 armor. It would be impossible to get a lvl 56 1* or 2*, so it would make sense for the armor to have to be at least 3*.
Although it may be able to just create a maxed out lvl 50 armor. I've not tried it, but I understand where (s)he is coming from.
