Oh Deshiba, this is why I fight to make gold value completely unrelated with effectiveness. Let's talk about your points:


 * Missing and Dynamic stats: You're referring to actual effectiveness. If there was a defined gold value for those stats, it's a constant. Always a constant. If you don't get what I mean, gold value is not effectiveness by the slightest. It has nothing to do with it.
 * Misleading Information: It's not misleading information. People just misuse the information... a lot. It has a purpose, helping determine how viable an actual item is and how quickly is a purchasable. If used outside those two, it really doesn't mean much.
 * Trivial Information: This, I actually agree because it's not super important, but where I disagree is that it's still useful and nice to have. Most item pages themselves usually aren't packed with information that makes and this gives a nice little extra knowledge about economics. The only thing that should happen is that they only remain within the item pages because that's all they serve.
 * The actual maintenance of them is pretty easy considering how little items actually change, especially considering how few times the base GV actually changes as well. When cooldown reduction GV was changed, it didn't even take a day for all the items to be corrected (and I didn't even have to do anything myself). I have spent weeks on end not even touching these sections, and rarely do they need updating. And I personally know this because I'm one of the only few mods who even touches these individual pages. If you're gonna complain about maintenance, I would like to see you actual edit these pages on a normal basis and you'll see how little these pages changes. If you want to see something that actually requires a lot of maintenance work for very little information, go look at the stat pages and them fall down to where the items are at.

To what Neon wrote, I'm not even surprised. So many people uses the gold value so wrong.
