CO's Itemisation Issues

Is there a plan to revisit Loot tables/Drops and Crafted items to set them up with itemised stats specialised for the different damage types/roles in the game ?

Arms purple crafted items could be itemised for Might/Melee and Muntions based characters but unfortunately there are many heavily INT/END pumped items. The primary utility for example is more useful for a Force/Fire character than any class that would logically relate to "munitions".

How about reitemsing the stuff thats currently in the game to make it viable/useful ? Munitions players would love a custom "Gun-Toting" armor set based around dex/ego/end/rec for them, as would any other class for that matter... I would bet that when the celestial power set comes out a whole range of specialised celestial armor will appear as you guys have a little more time/knowledge and preparation for the stats needed.

We dont want to all be wearing roughtly the same gear as everyone else.

I know CO seems to want to make all classes balance nearly all stats out but no-one actually wants to play that way. A world full of people with 6000 health 300 energy 20%crit 65% severity is a boring world.

Currently places like andrithal and mandragalore arent worth visitng for lacklustre INT/DEX based Blues and only 40 points towards the 1000 needed for armor that is weak for the specialist.

Changing crafted items so they are inline with poorly itemised loot is not the way to go about encouraging people to farm loot/tokens, reitimising rewards/loot would have been the correct method....

Hopefullly these quick fixes to item inbalances will make way for a more general rethink of items and itemisation over the coming months. Otherwise with no true incentive gear to go and farm for Level40's the game will grow very boring, very quickly. The only reason people play warcraft so religiously is to get that next piece of major improvement gear that the other guy has got. That does not currently exist in CO as noone is desperate for Unity/Cosmic/Nemsis gear as these items make players feel dilluted.
in short : Is there a plan to review itemisation in the game ?
