Special Dmg items on Chars with no Special Dmg???

I have seen this repeatedly, but why am I asked to equip items with Special Damage as the primary stat (sometimes hard to make items!) On characters that DO NOT deal special damage at all? It is very frustrating.

    I have brought this up before, and it got a similar response... Silence...

    :( .... Also potency items on characters with no negative status effects, dispels, turn meter pushback, etc. Same issue: bad itemization and waste of an item slot.

    Well you see, its like this.

    You dont want to die by falling out of a plane do you? No, of course not. So, how do you prevent such a fate? It's easy, you wear a parachute at all times. You may not need it now, but maybe someday you will.

    They did change a few items last update but yeah, a lot more work to be done before we have a coherent gearing system.

    They changed a few of these on a few characters but it was all at a low level and a lot of characters weren't even touched, like Daka.

    Biggest balance issue in game imo.

    Yeah I just had to upgrade someone with no special damage with special damage gear. I thought it was weird. Perhaps they want us to grind/farm more and have given up hiding it.

    if you change all the special dmg items for physical dmg items in chars who dont have special dmg, this chars will end hiting the double of the chars who have physical + special dmg and will be unbalanced, so stop cry for nothing

    I'm hoping "ships"deal special damage.

    Why does it have to be a straight swap for normal damage? It could be distributed appropriately between any of the available stats.

    I would rather have a +5 resistance or some other crappy (but easy to get item) than a hard to get +120 to special damage item on a char with no Special damage attacks.
