So I Know when blizz took away the crushing blow mechanic a lot people QQ'd, so iwas curious as to whether or not there was anyone who liked def as a stat and were actually going to miss it? I find that I do really like def only because of the extra avoidance it brings. My hope is that since they are removing def that later raid gear will have more hit and expertise on it so tank gear has a bit less of an Iron wall feel to it.
As a side note since block and parry are being significantly changed my hope is that each tank will have a greater focus on specific avoidance type like dks focusing on parry more and warriors and pallys block.
