Hey guys, came to this forum for a sec for a clarification, some of the existing topics touch on it, but I can't see any that pointedly refer to a solid word from blizz.
I am considering waiting for Cata to level a hunter from scratch with the applicable heirlooms, however currently they share the same stat sets as Enhancement shamans desire, including int.
Now, in Cataclysm, hunters won't need mana, so won't need int... so it's very possible that those AGI/AP/INT heirlooms will be 1/3 useless if they stay as they are based on the argument that "Enhancement will still need int".
A hunter friend of mine told me that's not the case, that y'all won't need INT any more in cataclysm (like non-holy Pallys discovered at the top of WOTLK) , so when the "gear updates for everyone", all AGI/AP/INT themed mail will just be AGI themed.
Has this been actually stated by blizz to be the direction you guys are going? I can wait till Cataclysm if it's *likely* (obviously we don't know for sure yet) that my DPS mail heirlooms will be purged of their INT.
Thanks in advance for any and all helpful replies.
