All this new gear is great, but without a solid stat system underneath, it's all for show.

What is the point of making a gear class specific if it does not directly enhance the efficiency of that class?
Agreed, but I think it's really just more ground work while keeping people occupied & testing the system live simultaneously. Also this can give people some feel of uniqueness being that the new items carry their class/rank requirement.
