    Tertiary Stats

    Tertiary stats are bonus stats that can appear on gear that don't count towards the item level budget. Lifesteal, avoidance, sturdiness, movement speed (stacks with other bonuses), cleave, and more.

    Sounds a bit like a diablo thing?

    That sounds amazing and it would make new loot really fun to itemize with!

    Will make attaining BiS impossible. No breaks between raid tiers as u can always farm better bonus stats.

    It actually reminds me a ton of Vanilla. Things like defense, resistances. I mean these are more modern iterations, but I like it. I'm more concerned about one piece of gear fitting all your specs.

    Pretty cool from what we saw, though I worry about the movement speed stuff.
    Small AOE avoidance and durability protection seem fine, but movement speed feels like a really strong stat to be put on random gear, especially when it stacks.

    They are saying it stacks with other bonuses. That means, that the little speed boost on boots, will for instance stack with sprint on a rogue. The speed boost a hunter gets from the disengage skill or whatever will stack with the speed bonus. Stuff like that. They are not saying that you will get run speed on all your pieces and have it stack so you are unable to be caught...

    I'm sure any attempt at stacking or abusing these stats in any way will be nerfed into irrelevance.

    In fact I wouldn't be surprised are straight up disabled in arenas/rbgs (and possibly raids).

    You can hopefully eventually develop different styles if you get anough pieces for it.
