Okay, so we've all seen the new stats panel for the character interface that was introduced in the alpha patch today. If you don't know what it looks like after it was updated: http://media.mmo-champion.com/images...wStatsPane.jpg
Now, the question I'm asking is, do you think the panel is oversimplified? For example, the only stats that show are crit/haste/mastery/vers, and on the official forums a blue post stated that we will not have the option to see the other attributes unless our weapon specifically has them on it.
Basically, we don't have access to any other attributes that we would normally see, like tanks can't see their defensive stats other than stamina. Tertiary stats haven't been commented on. The point of simplifying the panel was to make it easier for new players to see what they have in terms of stats, but as stated before, other stats that we have aren't going to be shown, and we will not have the option to show them.
Do you think we should have an advanced option as an addition to this panel, or do you think it's okay to leave out certain stats?
Blue post: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/20743314303 the two posts are on the first and second page of this forum.
Keep in mind, the new panel looks pretty damn awesome in terms of aesthetic, but that isn't the issue that I'm trying to address here.
Edit: Adding my view on this. I believe that we should have the option to choose which panel we want to use. For example, if I liked the structure of the old one, I'd like the option to use it. Obviously this new panel is awesome as well, and if they add more attributes like weapon speed I'll be using it (it's most likely not done), but having the option to use either one is what I believe would benefit everyone, rather than benefit some.
