What happens to multi class trinkets

[zcks]

I know Attack Power will be removed off of all gear in cataclysm, however what will they do in terms of trinkets that were meant to work across the board for all physical damage classes like http://db.mmo-champion.com/i/50343/w...-fanged-skull/ & http://db.mmo-champion.com/i/47131/deaths-verdict/ ? Will there be any more trinkets like them or will rouges/feral druids/ hunters get their own while warriors/ret paladins/death knights get their own.

I'm not sure but they are only removing those stats from gear, not from the game entirely I thought.
So maybe trinkets and buffs will still be able to give effects such as +attack power?

This most likely.

For instance, spellpower has been removed from gear, except for weapons, wouldn't surprise me if it showed up on select trinkets too, since both are meant to be important parts of your gear.

Fuck AP, remove expertise, I hate that shit

Show us on the paper doll where the bad stats touched you. What's so hard about hitting a 6.5% cap?

OT: They could simply change it so that it, somehow, changes stats based on the class wearing it. Anyone know if they're able to do that?

think all attackpower, spellpower and mp5 trinkets will be redone to give Agility for the rogues/hunters/feraldruids and str for dks/paladins/warriors

[Aerikaya]

Similar to the Darkmoon Card: Greatness, or Death's Choice/Verdict, it could grant you a bonus based on your higher ability i.e. Str for plate-wearers and agi for ferals, rogues, hunters and enhance.

Or they just leave AP on trinkets.

You mean mastery rating?

Why would they redo spellpower/Mp5 trinkets to give agi to rogues?
Any trinket that has spellpower baseline will just be converted to Int, and the Mp5 ones to spirit. AP ones are the sole exception, and they are rare anyway.
Buffs will probably stay the way they are. The change is to base stats on items, AP and SP still exist.

Anyway, Blizz specified at the last BlizzCon that AP would stay as a stat for this exact purpose.

As for SP, you don't have the problem in the first place, since it is only granted by Int, though weapons still give bonus SP.

They'll probably leave AP on current trinkets. None of the new trinkets added in beta so far have AP on them.

[rubiksmind87]

yeah, but they also have nothing but the basic stats, either. compared to the on-use trinkets of tbc and wrath, the new trinkets seems a little boring, imo

Well, they're all blues and greens so far. Epics will probably look more like what we have now.

This. It's a one fix all stat. Everyone can use it, and then DPS/Tank/healer can be dignified with the proc/use.

The question is, how will blizzard use this stat.
Will mastery>all itemization wise?
Will it be good for some but not others? (this is bound to be true)
Or will it simply be a stat that you either have or you don't (like using cloth over mail as shaman)
