Thank you for the explaination. I must say that this article is probably the best example of why gear itemization is getting re-vamped.

I have been leveling a Shaman alt and going from Vanilla WoW where I was just looking for AG, INT or AP (Basic Stats) To Outland where I started throwing down some hit and then finally to Northrend where I am juggling Haste, ARP, HIT, EXP, Spell Pen and probably others that I don't remember. All the itemization needs to roll a D6 and add it to their charisma. (Sorry, D&D reference)

Not to get off topic, but you don't need to know any of this to get through normal modes. It actually upsets me that they are dumbing down stats because if all you do as a rogue is stack agi now you will be about 100-200 dps off someone who knows about ArP(and mut, it's much less). Why can't we have the complicated mechanics that allow us to be a bit better with some research....for me it's part of the game.
