Stat rolls on gear should act as local Requirement reductions

These are simple suggestions that easily relieve confusion and hassle in a handful of ways. There are two:

1. If a piece of gear has a Stat roll (Str, Dex, Int) on it, that piece of gear's requirements should be lowered by that amount. Example: A Body Armour that requires 80 Dexterity to equip rolled with +20 Dexterity Suffix. That body Armour's Requirements line now says "60 Dex" in blue to denote the reduction.

This is so you can equip a piece of gear that "self-fulfills" its own requirements without swapping out some other random piece of gear first.

2. Show us our Total required Str/Int/Dex for the currently equipped Gear/Skills on our Character Sheet somewhere. Perhaps under the stats themselves, or as an addition to their hover-information.

It is a huge pain in the rear end to have to go over every single gem, every single gear piece, and try to remember which one has the highest required value of what. Completely unnecessary obfuscation of very important info.

I think these two things would make the game at least 8% less awkward to interact with.

That 8% is multiplicative lol

8%...I'm going with a considerably higher % than that.

I've suffered for 4000 hours in poe1 because of this ridiculous oversight

I'd even argue attribute requirements for gear are kind of outdated at this point, but I didn't put much thought on the matter and what that change could turn out to be

I think they could stand to be reduced by a little bit, but overall I think its a good move to have certain gear types require at least some investment into attribute stats.

The problem is sometimes they just turn stats into an annoying little puzzle where somehow, you're always either 1 or 4 off from the mark.

I don't think we need quite as many annoying little puzzles that are relatively arbitrary for most builds. If you aren't stacking attributes, their inherent bonuses to you are meaningful of course, but not by huge amounts. If you are stat stacking, gear requirements barely matter at all.

If requirements were lowered by 20% it would still make sense that you need over 100 strength to wield a giant two-handed weapon, but not an amount that requires you to sacrifice other stats or fuss over tiny amounts of these things on gear.
