Why is itemization so bad???

This is a serious question EAWare, why is itemization just so bad in this game? The Hazmat implants are just the latest in terms absolutely atrocious forethought and planning. I mean minimal, and I do stress MINIMAL, stat point boost for 10x the cost of BH implants. I'm sure many people would not mind spending this much, if the upgrade was even remotely meaningful.

 

Most of the mods/enhancements seems like they were just haphazardly placed by someone that apparently doesn't play SWTOR (or MMOs). We've had the SAME set bonus for almost a year now. I mean is it really THAT hard to be a little creative? Do you even CARE about this game anymore? Seems like all the resource is going into F2P and designing "killer new pets" and other nonsensical and meaningless things.

 

How about some interesting set bonuses with certain implant+relic combos? How about rare earpieces that have cool cosmetic procs or any procs. How about certain items that give off cool graphical effects. How about relics that alter the way your lightning looks. How about rare pieces of gear that gives a boost to credits/xp earned on quest/killing. ANYTHING but "ohh look we added 3 AIM to the new tier 5 gear!! Time to get back on that hamster wheel!".

 

I mean there are SOOOOOO many things you can do to make items more interesting and FUN. I honestly just don't understand.

Understand this: without you(the SWTOR gamer) on their development team(staff), they are limited to what a team of programmers can dream up, with occasional useful suggestions trickling through the vitriol that makes it's way to said team via the forums and other mediums. As such, they are unable to anticipate your every wish. I don't mean to sound confrontational, but that's what I feel it truly comes down to.

If all the gear was perfectly itemised people would get bored very quickly. Get in, get gear, get out. I for one don't are how it's itemized as long as I can get the mods I want and swap them around to have the gear the way I like it.

 

EDIT: You have also already started a thread on this exact issue. Stop spamming.
