So Much to Sort Through: Goodbye, Hit and Expertise! Hello, Movement Speed, Cleave, and Potentially Others!

In the latest stat shake-up, we'll be losing hit and expertise rating. Presumably, this means that the chance to miss will be eliminated, as well as the chance to be dodged or parried.

Wait, what?

This could have incredible implications for tanks. While the lack of expertise does not automatically remove the possibility of dodge or parry, it does seem to make them less likely to survive.

The other big thing that I'm curious about is that there will apparently be new stats. The two that were mentioned were "movement speed," which is pretty straightforward, and "Cleave." I don't know what Cleave rating will do, but I could imagine it causing your attacks to occasionally hit other targets, or possibly make a portion of your damage hit additional targets.

Are there more of these stats to come?
