Guild Wars 2

As previously stated by many others, ANet should allow crafters to allocate the stats on crafted items and gear. For example, an Armor-smith would be able to choose which stats would fill the primary and secondary slots on gear. This would enable crafters to create gear that opens up new builds, as well as provide gear that uses underutilized stats like Boon Duration. In order to prevent ANet from rewriting the entire crafting skill, ANet could reserve this custom slotting ability for Master/ Grandmaster crafters.

As for players that want a strict adherence to stat combos, I would go with power (primary), precision and toughness (secondary) and power, precision, boon duration, or power, toughness, boon duration.

Wow really necroing this

I’d like to be able to create stats of choice, even if it meant long grinds for recipes and / or materials.
Make it a high level crafting thing.
While I’m talking about it, some stats are seldom if ever used by other than new players. I’m thinking of healing, for example. It might be worth looking at buffing some of the existing but little used stats or otherwise making them more attractive.

Healing Power is almost worthless. That’s why it isn’t used for anything other than bunker troll builds in WvW mode.
