Everyone wanted the stats to be more balanced, but while that is a good thing by it self, since the stat system is so bland, it doesn't really help that it doesn't matter what secondary stats to get...

Well, ofc it matters differently for each job, but at least when I looked at MNK, there's like a weighted 6 STR difference between BiS and a set with as high SS as possible... If you just try to stay away a little from SS, you're fine.

I'm still aiming for that BiS, but still... We need variance to our gear, and the materia melding to raid/tomestone gear in 3.2 won't really change much, since you'll just meld whatever stat is best for your job.

Don't know why the OP is saying there's only one 210 set though...
