Other Stats Should be Buffed/Reworked Like Resilience
As most of us have already been made aware, resilience is now the most valuable stat in the game, due to it now providing flat damage reduction instead of more health. Even more so, the stat scales very well and actually requires the player to heavily invest in resilience to get value from the investment. The downside to all this, is that basically every other stat is just nowhere near res in value. Now part of this is due to the inclusion of elemental well builds, subclass 3.0 effects, etc. For example, I don't need recovery when I can just proc devour or restoration, and recovery has been one of the most desired stats for the past few seasons. At least in PvE, there's basically no reason to not prioritize resilience.
My point in all this is that I actually think that the resilience changes are good, albeit the magnitude might have been a bit too much. The main takeaways I got from this change were:
1) I believe that armor stats should provide benefits that are largely unavailable through other means
2) I believe that the stats should be weighted towards the higher tiers, encouraging players to actually choose what stats to invest in
2b) Players should not necessarily be punished for not choosing the other stats, they simply don't receive the benefits
I'm hoping that Bungie is planning to provide similar buffs to the other stats, because I honestly think this is a step in the right direction. I've played other RPGs, but spent a decent amount of time in WoW and Diablo, and a massive part of perfecting builds in those games is getting the proper stat allocations from your gear. In those games, the stats provide noticeable impact to your character's performance in combat encounters. While I understand Destiny is a completely different game, I think that Bungie would be wise to lean a bit more into the RPG side of the game if they insist on stats being in the game at all.
TL:DR - Other stats should get a revisit like resilience
Also welcome to other viewpoints/feedback here so Bungie can see it
