Disclaimer - this is kind of convoluted and contains some math. If you aren't interested in this sort of thing, stop reading before it is too late :p

First of all, the quality of a weapon drop is not dependant on your level.

How drop quality is calculated:

The notation [0..3] means a random number in the range 0-3 (it could be 0,1,2, or 3).

skew(50) works as follows:
Start with a value of 0. Select a random number between 0 and 99. If it is less than 50, then add 1 to the value and try again by selecting another random number. If it is equal to or greater than 50, quit. Notice that this is an unbounded value. There is no upper limit on weapon power, just a statistical probability that it won't get too high. For instance, the probability of getting a skew value of 8 or greater is 1/256.

A number is calculated as follows:
7 + [0..3] + [0..3] + skew(50)

This number is applied to each of the items base stats as follows (base stats are listed at the end of this post):
If the stat is >= 0: stat = (stat * number) / 10
If the stat is < 0: stat = (stat *10) / number

Notice that the lowest an item can be is 70% of its base stats. As I indicated above there is no upper limit on an item because of the skew function.

For example, if you find a +115a+46s gladius, then the number calculated was 23.

Adding special abilities to an item:

The following special abilities can be added to an item:
"Curse", "Glows", "Flames", "Bless", "Lucky", "Disease", "Blind", "Panic", "Blast", "Enchant"

This is calculated as follows:
Get the weapon power: 3 * base attack + 2 * base defense + base skill. Assign this to a temporary power value.

Roll a random number in the range 0 - 2047. If it is less than the weapon power, randomly select one of the special abilites described above. If the special ability is already on the weapon, remove it (this is why you can find things like matchlocks with no blast), otherwise add it.

Subtract the random number rolled above from the current temporary power value. Go back to rolling a random number as described in the previous paragraph to see if an additional special ability will be added to the weapon. This continues until the random number rolled is higher than the current temporary power value.

Notice that the more powerful weapons are more likely to have special abilities on them.

Base item stats:

Every item in the game has a base starting level described in the following table (the columns are read as item | attack | defense | skill |where you use the item, two columns for right + left) | item default abilities):
