What if stat customization was purely cosmetic?

Seems like the dev's need to keep this game as basic as possible for the sake of being basic, people will fight over stuff if it changes slightly, like that doesn't already happens in the game people tend to ruin the system that's been implemented it's not always the system itself that ruins it. /shrug

Changing something like the meta-setup for a boss fight is not "slight changes". The moment you design something like primal fights to favor one element or the other like someone has mentioned, you either end up tuning the fights around the optimal elements (essentially causing the illusion of choice fallacy) or the fight is tuned without, making it become an absolute joke if you stack the proper elements against it (which again causes the illusion of choice)

I rather have it basic and balanced then that it flies all out of control.
Do we really want groups with 4dps's the same job because they are obviously the best for a fight?
