And thank God for the lodestone being implemented like this. So when someone makes comments about something you can find out how much they really "KNOW" on the subject. OMG End game content needs a nerf, too hard (checks lodestone to see highest class is only level 30... got it... ignore and move on)
To the OP, I do not think that NEED means what you think it means.
Need: Something that is an upgrade to your class to make you a better player.
Greed: Something I wish to have because "reasons".
Since the stats for the item is not for your class/job it is not "technically" an upgrade. If it is *somehow* better than what you are already wearing, then you are already in for a world of fail because they HAND you better gear for your class than those pieces would equate to at level 40 and higher. Seriously, the lack of main stat on this item makes it the equivalent of a piece of level 40 gear (if not much lower).
And to the point that they need to spell it out to you how to play properly, they do. If you choose not to READ something that is your own fault. As others have pointed out, merely opening your character sheet up and hovering over the "strength" and "dexterity" stats plainly tell you that strength increases melee damage and dexterity increases ranged damage. Tell me, how many of your abilities are actually classified as a "ranged" ability in the tooltip? Oh... that's right, NONE OF THEM.
