Default Green weapons.. a new way forward?

It would seem that we will all have the opportunity to add 15^50 mod's ect onto weapons soon, basically we can all have the chance to have the rare skins we've always wanted at a fair price and the mods we want to add.

Which brings me onto my point about green weapons.
Is now not the time to make these weapons drop with better stats, not huge increases, just enough to make them worth collecting, to me there would be a point and a reason to own them, for example:-

Kanaxai's Edge

Slashing damage 15-22 (req. 9 Swordsmanship)
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)
Armor penetration +20% (Chance: 20%)
Health +30

Could change to with a 5 increase.

Slashing damage 20-27 (req. 9 Swordsmanship)
Damage +20% (while Health is above 50%)
Armor penetration +25% (Chance: 20%)
Health +30

Nothing to major but a real reason to buy and own one, IMO something needs to change given the fact the whole weapon situation with mods is about to change, whats everyone think to the idea?

yes, lets just undermine the very principles of the game, shall we?

the game is balanced. lets not unbalance it.

No. Not a good idea. GW is about balance and this would screw it up completely. Rich buggers would farm them, buy them, and yell at newer players for not having 'leet' weapons.

BTW, this would be one of the most serious updates added and it would f--- things up. Why were greens added in the first place? To let newer, poorer people get good weapons, giving people who farm 28/7 less advantage.

Hehe, try reading more then the first couple of sentences. He isn't really talking about inscriptions at all.

Anyway, major notsigned and never going to happen. This game is designed with specific mathematically balances in mind.

Yea...this is way unfair because all the weapons now do the same amount of total damage in a few seconds ( they are pretty balanced) This idea would really stink...especially for everyone who bought a Max damage, rare skinned sword for 100K+xx ectos. Its just really not worth this, unless you make a new weapon thats limited and really hard to get, not something that is kinda (although kanaxai's weapons are hard to get) uncommon.

I scream IMBALANCED! imba imba imba!

Seriously though, just because no one really gives a crap about damage on weapons in pve doesn't mean the pvp community wouldn't freak out about this obvious imbalance.

lock please!
