I'm sure folks would like having stats on a kingdom item, but i really would like to start focusing more on how to RP better now and not just stats anymore, it may not be the reason, or it could, but kingdom items were made probably because one person who was in charge wanted to outdo the other leaders and made something with desireable stats (the stats were also grossly high making their item overpowered) and it carried on from there.

Dustari and samurai mainly have boots that add lots of stats, and the recent pirate boots i see have high stats also, if you need stats on kingdom items think outside the box for a minute, any kingdom shield, boots or whatever WILL be a worthy item to own, but instead of having ONLY good stats make a bad stat to them also, such as dex-2 or something similar to the tower shield, it's a great and rare shield but it was probably the ONLY item i admire because it's balanced.

So my suggestion would be add both good stats and bad stats to future items, there are more than enough items without negetive stats already, or just DON'T add stats since kingdoms should try to RP more and not worry about who can own who.
