Removal of Secondary Stats
So, as some of you may have noticed, with the arrival of Luminous also comes the removal of secondary stats on equipment (with the exception of Empress):

Well, I have been thinking about this for a while now, and I've checked around for a satisfactory answer, but have found none. So, I was wondering: What is a Pirate's Secondary Stat? Dexterity, or Strength? Both branches of Pirates utilize a different stat, so which of these stats would be removed?

Wow, just came back on and so many comments!
@izama: Yes, that's what I meant: the armor. The weapons, I can make a pretty straightforward guess at; but the armor was a bit iffy. Hopefully, they remove both stats!
@Laguniroth: That is a good question, they'd probably have to remove both. If it's to armors that is, but even then its not so bad for pirates. I honestly don't see why primary stat is even in a requirement on armor, not like wer'e going to have an under amount of primary stat. Leaving it on weapons will help guide people from asking what their main stat is a I guess (assuming they can't read).
Well you have at least about 6 months till then maybe xD so maybe it'll be out, and maybe they will create a legend. We have no idea till the time comes haha.
@izama: this thread is literally the first ive heard of the removal of secondary stats on equipment.. but im assuming (from this thread) it extends to armor as well as weapons. if thats not the case, let me know.. but if it is, "pirates" are in a pretty unique position as both of their sub classes use different primary and secondary stats. none of the other classes have that.
This literally doesnt affect me at all as by the time "Luminous" (seriously.. no XXXXing pirate legend? REALLY?) comes out i will have LONG quit.. (provided Guild Wars 2 is out by then,..) but yeah nexon hates the fake pirate class they created for no reason.. even more than they hate thieves.. which is saying something.
[quote=Laguniroth]yes but what hes saying is.. since sairs have str as a secondary and buccs have dex as a secondary and (with the exception of weapons) they use the same equipment.. which requirement will be removed. Since it's pretty freaking obvious that nexon hates the "pirate" class, pirates dont lose either requirement.[/quote]
It's not that hard to figure out if they only do it based off the weapon. Remove str on guns, remove dex on knuckles, remove dex on cannons. Removing secondary requirements means in relation to the weapon/ class, not the entire pirate branch. I would hope they don't make a screw up like that, but then again they do hate pirates. Either way being statless as a pirate isn't that hard anyway, so meh.
[quote=some1crazy]They said the removal of secondary stats REQUIREMENTS.
Means that you won't need secondary stats unless you want to equip the best of the best equipment.[/quote]

im guessing its gonna require 0 dex and 0 str?
