The point here really is that being able to actually design an item instead of relying upon a random program is sure to produce more innovative ideas & items. And to me, that’s the whole point of ItemBuildr.

The problem, however, is that any build of an item that doesn’t completely max a stat is going to get downvoted by a majority of the population as “useless”. As mentioned, the winners will inevitably be the ones that spend all the points possible to maximize Offense (and perhaps defense) or Charisma (and perhaps luck) or Frugality. Odds are low that we’d end up with any items the community liked better.
