There are only 3 stats to choose from on gear pieces. Every other RPG has the essentials. Strength/Endurance, Intelligence/Intellect, Agility/Dexterity, Spirit/Wisdom, and these stats increase other small stats like Spell damage and attack power or things like that. Lets say they keep the stats the way they are, because they "work". It's a very simple way to get a game out the door without having to do too much math and programming to make sure everything works. Also, its challenging with a shooter because your damage is solely based on your ability to aim and not your ability to equip the appropriate gear. So, that being said, I think legendaries/exotics need more "random" perks to make things more interesting. Instead of having a legendary only offer 3 perks, make them more LEGENDARY by having them do more things. Example: Random Crota raid gauntlets: Increased reload speed for special weapons (already in place) Chance on precision to spawn orbs (already in place) Increased grenade throw distance (sure why not) and than additional things like: Increased ammo pickup range. Increased damage to non-guardian targets (New feature) Increased chance to spawn legendary engrams (New feature) Increased glimmer gained by killing majors (New feature) Increase motion tracker distance (New feature) Targets hit are marked and can be seen through walls. I'm sure the community here can come up with more creative ideas of their own. But the idea is that having more stats to be a part of the loot roll, it will allow players to REALLY build a custom character, rather than having the same exact gear as everyone else. You'd be able to actually collect gear and build your own sets.
