We need to create a certain amount of Ranger specific items to appeal to their effect needs. However, if you are grouping or raiding and your ranger has these items already then the item is often deemed as worthless. This also solves a number of other problems like introducing Taunt criticals, itemizing properly for bards and crusaders and a whole host of other issues.
From there we would likely adjust critical multipliers down to one generic effect as well. We could then balance classes by role so that they have higher base crit mults for their specialties instead of everyone using a 1.3 base. For example healers get a higher heal crit mult than everyone else. Rangers get the highest ranged mult, etc. This will obviously take some planning and I stress its just an idea right now so nothing to get too worked up over.
We would then continue to consolidate effects where it makes sense like double attack and ranged double attack. Other things might include base damage increasers and +damage increasers.
This disturbs me.
