Poor you. Do you still wear the same items you had at level 60?

That item will get changed in Cata anyway. Defense wont exist anymore.
And your post is just a QQ about something that wont happen before 4+ months. What about you enjoy the game right now and care about this stuff maybe when it will really matter? Blizzard surely thought about it, and if not, I am sure the millions of other post like your on their official forum will remind them to do something about it.

I was under the impression that Strength still gave benefit to Feral Tanks, can't see why that should change?
(Read: The statement about Agi and Str is most likely just a general one)

What does a druid use strength for? I know for Warriors/Pallys, str = block, and for DK's it's pure attack power... but what does a druid get out of it?

NO,
It's exactly as you read it
"Attack Power: Attack Power will be replaced by allowing Agility to provide the necessary Attack Power for leather and mail wearers. Strength will provide the appropriate amount of Attack Power for plate wearers. This means leather and mail items will no longer be desirable for plate wearers. "
The only change will be that Leather tanking items will have Agility on them instead of Strength... Problem solved

well, fyi, leather tanking items already have AGI and no STR, my concerns are for the tanking items I got that have no AGI and only STR.
And the items I'm talking about is the rings, necklace and cloak. Theses tanking items are used by all tanks, including bears... So I wish Blizz will adapt their statement to us as well. Because all bear tanks have both AGI on their leather gears and STR on the rest (ring, neck & cloak)...
Listen,
it's not that hard to create different versions of the same ring, one for Bear tanks (with Agility) and one for the other ones (with Strength).

Where does it say that rogues, droods etc wont benefit from strength? Agility will still be superior, but youll still gain ap from strength. Just as plate wearers still will get crit from using agility.
all it says is that pure "attack power" will disappear from items. and an explanation why, that they dont want plate wearers using leather and or mail.

it doesn't say that rogues & druids woudln't benefit from STR, they say Plate wearers will benefit from STR... so, can we understand that leather wearers wouldn't get any attack power from STR ? this is what I'd like to confirm...
blizzard never said that mail and leather wearers wont benefit from strength. happy news all hunters! You can still roll on tanking weapons and 2hers with strength on.
