Missing Gear stat Combos

Some classes have a much easier time getting their starter gear than others, and some don’t even get to get the gear they want at all.

I would like to have Toughness/Healing Power/Condition Damage at level 80, but it doesn’t exist.

Condition Damage combo’s are lacking everywhere and necromancers probably have the toughest time gearing. I’m trying to gear an earth based elementalist, but I don’t see the point of making that now because I’m going to need to take Power instead of condition damage.

Why is gear like this? I thought this game was just going to be like GW1 anyway and just be cosmetic, but instead this is the most I’ve ever had to worry about gearing in any MMO. I don’t really mind gearing so much, but make it a little more organized and balanced for everyone if you’re going to do it.
