I've found that a well equipped warrior hero can manage to level up extremely fast if you fight solo. If it's really a problem and you want to use the higher level items, get the Potential line of traits or pick up General for your profession.

This lets the players decide how fast the want their capital to grow compared to the spawn cities.
