PoE2 - Cant equip any new items

Hi,

My game crashed during last hit on boss (flame boss in Mandun Mine - Act 2 Cruel). After starting game again I was still in the room with dead boss and I was able to progress with main story.

Problem is that I cannot equip any new items, which means I am stuck with gear from Lv28...

For example: new weapon, item lv55, required strength 88 - my lv55 and current strength 219. Item in the inventory is red, same goes for any item from merchants.

Any idea how to fix it?

In advance thank you for any tips.
