Q u o t e:
Where is the strength based dps ring? Why is it always the strength dps option that gets left out or has to wait to be added in later like the Dalran rings? I would really like to know since when cata comes around strength based classes will get even less benefit from agi that we do now.
The reason we haven't added one is actually a frustrating technical issue that prevents us from having more than 4 rewards on a quest like this. We do intend to fix this though and add a strength ring in the future, we just aren't sure this will be done for the Ashen Verdict line or if it will have to wait until the next time we use a system like this in a future patch.

Q u o t e:
There shouldn't be a strength ring. Not every spec has to be perfectly represented on every quest reward. Isnt that the load of garbage you told tanks about QD?
It depends on what we intend to accomplish with the quest line. Different quests have different purposes.

This 100%, the way itemization has gone since forever ago is horrible, and I always feel like the devs are laughing at us from their lazy boys in hell. There is so many valid ideas of how they "could have" done the reputation ring, that it is a bit of the slap in the face that they could not think of it. I mean unless Devs are misleading us again, they did WANT to put the ring in right?
There are a lot of restrictions on these rings and we don't expect players to understand how tricky some technical issues can be.
We have done the four ring system in the past and while players may be a bit more selective about their stats these days, we don't want players to expect every source of loot to have perfect itemization for every class and every spec. There are other alternatives if you are unhappy with this option.
