[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Reynhart]

How high was your HP and how long do you think you'd survive wearing that gear in Sophia EX?

I wouldn't survive...because I didn't even have the average ilvl to enter Sohia EX. Yet I did enough DPS because I had a higher weapon.

It's a weapon. The weapon is where most of our damage comes from. Not our armour (though it does add to it).

That would have made sense...if only every piece of armor wouldn't add to your main damaging stat...
