I agree stats on gear is incredibly bland and boring. I want choices, it's boring seeing something is higher ilvl, then automatically knowing it'll be better than my lesser ilvl piece of gear. Please make us have to use thought and our brains to figure out what gear is the best.

Some us would like to rack our brains on which build is better than which because it adds depth to the game and contributes to a richer gaming experience. Being able to play with gimmicky builds that are unique and fun while still being functionally relevant is part of what keeps asses in seats. When everyone is the same, it's boring.

+1 opinion
Yes! I want options, I want to do math, I want to compare things, I want to test things, I don't want the game to automatically tell me something is better because it's ilvl is higher. I wanna figure out what's better myself!

No? The theorycrafters are the one that figure out what set up is optimal, right now you don't need to theorycraft, you literally look "oh, this things ilvl is 5 levels higher, UPGRADE!". THAT's boring, also, you've never played FFXI or a game with good itemization.
