Really?! I mean is this a joke?

So put what in its place? You can't put nothing, because then you're left with just Crit Det and then all gear variation is gone.

I agree. The answer isn't to remove stats, it's to add more functionality to stats. Make Skill/Spell speed increase the TP/MP regeneration rates. Make the parrying function apply an automatic counterattack. Make accuracy... Well, I've always thought accuracy should be melded together with Critical Hit Rate. Logically, the more accurate your strikes are, the more often you'll strike vital areas.
