Customizing stats is a great addition it allows us to utilize our equipment better and easily juggle hit cap and what not.I see no problem with this at all period.They are also moving the game back to vanilla somewhat by removing complicated stats like Armor Pen and not forcing tanks to juggle Defense cap so really the stat game will be simpler post x-pac.
What does this mean regarding rolling for gear drops?Does this mean if Pally Healer Plate drops, Every plate wearer imaginable can roll on it cause they can reforge it?
here comes argues in raids for rolling weapon :P
I can't believe so many people are missing the concept...What Reforging Is: Another option in the stat juggling act. You will not need to Reforge every single piece of gear. You will only Reforge if a piece of gear will put you over a cap and you can spend those points in a more useful, and missing, stat.What Reforging Isn't: A way to change gear from Role A to Role B. The Reforged stat is still there. Best case scenario will be making the gear less horrible for you. It will not make Rogue gear into Boomkin gear. It will not make tanking gear into DPS gear. You might be able to make some healing gear into placeholder DPS gear, but it will be as short-term a solution as using healing gear without Reforging it.Is your Mage over the hit cap without gemming, enchanting, or talenting (because those are gone) into hit? Then you can Reforge that +100 Hit Rating staff into a +60 Hit Rating/+40 Crit staff. Is Dodge more useful to your tank than Parry right now? Convert some of your Parry into Dodge, so long as the gear doesn't have Dodge already. These are the reasons Reforging is being implemented. If your Master Looter (because who cares about Heroic loot, you can run it again tomorrow </sarcasm>) wants to give someone the wrong spec gear because of Reforging, either never PuG with him again, or let his guild know he is misunderstanding a game mechanic.
Arena gear cannot be vendored so ..... 1g FOR EVERY ITEM?
