(See the best response by Kaiochao.)
Code:
    sword
        name = "Sword"
        icon_state = "sword"
        description = "+5 Power"
        overlay_state = "sword"
        overlay_layer = 2
        map_state = "sword-map"

        slot = MAIN_HAND
        // make the sword actually give you +5 power
        
        equipped(mob/m)
            m.overlay(src)
            m.power += 5

        unequipped(mob/m)
            m.remove(src)
            m.power -= 5


Problem description:
Possible to make it so that items cant be equipped unless Said class or a certain level?

I.e :
say I am a Mage and I want to equip this bow, or chain-mail armour. It wouldn't let me because I am not the right class. Or if I wanted to equip a level 80 wand but I am only level 79, It wouldn't let me.


PS : Above is the code for a basic default sword code that is given with Action-Rpg-FrameWork

Put if(src.level >= (level you want)) on top of m.overlay(src)

I haven't used this framework at all, but here's what I gather from less than a minute of looking for a quick solution for you.

It's clear that there is a proc that determine whether an item can be equipped:
item
    proc
        can_equip(mob/m)
            return 1


You simply need to override that proc and return a value depending on whether the player should be able to equip that item. When it returns true, or 1, the item can be equipped.

For example,
//  The level 80 wand can only be equipped by players
// whose level is equal to or greater than 80.

item/level_80_wand
    can_equip(mob/m)
        return m.level >= 80

Alright I will try that Kaiochao Thanks for giving it a look.
I will post back, if I need more tips, or if something didn't quite work.

--edit--

    sword
    
        name = "Sword"
        icon_state = "sword"
        description = "+5 Power"
        overlay_state = "sword"
        overlay_layer = 2
        map_state = "sword-map"

        slot = MAIN_HAND
        // make the sword actually give you +5 power

        equipped(mob/m)
        
        can_equip(mob/m)
            return m.level >= 80
            return m.class >= "Knight"
            m.overlay(src)
            m.power += 5

        unequipped(mob/m)
            m.remove(src)
            m.power -= 5



Works quite swell thank! also is there a way I could add a message for when a player cant equip it?

I am not quite sure where to put it..

       cant_equip(mob/m)
            m << "You can't equip this"
            return

Your code will never reach the second line under can_equip()

In response to HavenDev
 
can_equip(mob/m)
            if(m.level < 80 || m.class != "Knight")
               m << "You can not equip this"
               return 0
            else
                return m.level >= 80
                return m.class >= "Knight"
                m.overlay(src)
                m.power += 5
