Not the item squish, mind you, that I still have some reservations about, but the secondary and new minor stats. As you&#8217;re likely aware, if you&#8217;re here reading an obscure gaming blogs WoW Post, several stats have been removed entirely. Dodge, parry, hit and expertise are gone. I&#8217;m very happy with the removal of hit and expertise. Those stats always felt so limiting. It was never a &#8220;boost&#8221; to reach their respective caps, just a pain when you didn&#8217;t and it always caused such touble in choosing gear. I&#8217;m a little more torn about dodge and parry. While I agree they weren&#8217;t very &#8220;fun&#8221; stats, they did provide a little something in making a tank feel like a tank and not just a dps with threat. I&#8217;m curious to see what tanking abilities and passives are added to make up for the loss of passive mitigation from the stats. The new stats, however, seem really fun.
