Guild Wars 2

Since stats will be removed from trait lines, I suggest reintroducing the stat allocation from old style RPG into Guild Wars 2.

Players can put stat points in Power, Precision, Toughness, Vitality, Condition duration, Condition Damage, Boon duration, Healing Power, Profession mechanic.

Why?

• Nostalgia
• Simple to learn
• Easy to implement. At least easier than putting the missing stats into the gear.
• Leveling feels rewarding.

I STRONGLY support this. (and in fact suggested this a week ago! :P )

In addition to your points, it ALSO addresses the issue of losing Boon/Condi duration, AND the issue of sPvP stat distribution.
