    Are you suggesting that you should be reallocating your stats for different fights? Well that is one more good argument to get rid of it.

    I thought assigning stats points is meant to be meaningful and how it can be meaningful if you just reallocate them to suit every fight the best? Why have them in the first place then? There will still be best stat assignment if not per job, then per fight, and every end-game pve player who will want to progress hard content, will know what that best assignment is. Really it's why blizzard got rid of talent trees in wow and why it got rid of stat allocation in d3 - because it serves no other purpose than to gimp the uninformed.
