Guild Wars 2

Currently the “Attack” stat is just the sum of your power and weapon strength, but that sum is not used in the damage calculations. The damage is calculated by the PRODUCT of the two, so I think “Attack” should represent the product. This product is in the millions, but would be no problem as 4,613,523 could easily be represented as 4.614

I suggest this because I always hear people talk about their attack stat which doesn’t mean as much as their power, because a 10% increase in attack does not mean a 10% increase in damage, but a 10% increase in power DOES mean a 10% increase in damage.
