Diadem highlights FFXIV's biggest flaw: Lack of Horizontal progression

While I don't disagree with you, it isn't going to happen. They've said before that they don't want there to be a BiS (even though there already is). Stuff like that also becomes situational, and since we can't change gear mid-fight, you have to decide what you're going to wear for the whole dungeon/fight/whathaveyou.

*insert something about how casuals can't get this stuff cuz casual*

Personally, I would love to have unique stats on gear again (I miss you, regen enhancing whm boots), but looks like we're just going to deal with more crit and spell speed....

Don't need unique stats per se. I'm taking about general enhancements that prolongs the use of existing gear. i.e. enchantment stone that makes your Alexandrian Boots of casting +1.

Look at Zurvan Ex for example. Sophia Ex already dropped a weapon. So wouldn't it have been better if Zurvan dropped some sort of enhancement to that weapon rather then simply making it obsolete with another.

You mean like how you can buy lore gear and Savage drops things to upgrade them into 270, except do that for dungeon drops instead?
