This [i]isn't[/i] WoW and shouldn't be copying a game with such different needs. This is a mechanic that [i]failed[/i] in D1Y1 and was replaced by infusion. It is [i]not[/i] the solution, and isn't going to help. Yes, weapons will still be useable for 90% of activities, and yet these changes are meant to help reduce the resources and time needed to balance weapons.... which implies that only 10% of this game will continue to receive attention, and a growing percentage will be ignored and left to go fallow. That isn't progress
