That's more a reflection of bad players than the meta itself. Under the STR meta, the emphasis was being on point with your defense (i.e. good CD management) as well as your offence. The ignorant/bad got it twisted by only seeing the DPS numbers and thinking that's all they had to focus on.

Either way I'm glad for the shift in accessories. Like I said earlier, it's not like the mentality is going to shift; the ones who knew what they were doing will simply stand out more vs those who got by off following the meta but not really understanding how/why it worked.
