People had a lot more freedom to decide what kind of stat allocation they wanted and still perform just fine. There is no choice in FFXIV. Your weapon damage and main stat are all that matter. You may think that 500 crit rating you have is raising your dps by a sooo much, but in reality, your damage is exactly the same as everyone else with the same ilvl.
I know how stats work in ARR, thanks. But, no, XI was not balanced.
