I know 99.9% of ppls visiting the forum does not give a sh*t about this (being lvl 70 or higher), but for the minority (like myself) playing around enjoying the old part of the game, this is really annoying. The drops from BRD where some of the first "useful" palatank drops - now turned into "yet another Warrior dps drop". It might be, that they (Blizz) whant ret palas to be the lvl'ing spec for paladins, and the gear to match that, but:
1) They can just jump into the allready existing dps warrior plate
2) I DON'T REALLY GIVE A sh*t about ret paladins.
The biggest problem with the changing in itemstats is not the "no more pala tanking", it's the "no more interlect and spell dmg gear for pala period!". Are we supposed to take (if holy) our two fantastic heals and wear cloth just to have a little mana? After 2.3 every pre TBC pala will be forced to be ret. Ofc it's still possible to be holy pala in cloth gear, but come on. Would any sane groupleader pick a pala (who only has 1 real healing ability) who is wearing cloth, over anyother healing class?
There's prob allready a post or 100 on O'board about this - but now it's allso here :)... (Man I'm getting all worked up about this :P)
