We may not end up with 1 agi = 1 RAP after everythings said and done, they may adjust it to 1 agi = 1.5 RAP (rounded down) or something. We may end up with several new ranks of lightning reflexes or we may end up with other bonus agility talents of some sort or other. Who knows?

I know this isn't going to be a popular position with most of the hunter community, but I'm honestly hoping the 10% or so worth of max DPS we're losing from the RAP changes is going to our pets. There really isn't any way they could increase pet dps output significantly enough to make them fully useful (read : worth the healers spending mana on) without making them totally imbalanced in PvP.
Blizzard obviously went to a great deal of effort to make pets viable dps sources throughout Naxxaramas, and so it makes sense to me that this would be groundwork for making pets more of a viable dps tool in raid encounters.
