    There's nothing they can do to itemization to actually make it interesting, imho. Until something besides 'moar dps' matters, it won't matter what stats they add, it'll always be cut and dry.

    That I agree with, but I do think there needs to be a change in the game where DPS is no longer all that matters, like a point where having support roles for things like enmity control (y'know make enmity an actual hard thing to deal with) and support heals or buffs is necessary. I don't think the next expansion will have the potential to go full throttle on this but I'd like it if some actual depth was put into the stats of this game. That being said such an overhaul of a game system is a big undertaking, and due to many rumors of a lack of manpower on the FFXIV dev team (which is a crime considering how much money this game makes for the company and how little they put back into it) we can only pray they'll do something eventually.
