The simple fact that Blizzard wants to add a Haste scope leaves me a little depressed. Haste is just about the most costly and least scaling stat for Hunter in Wrath. Yet they want us to get it. That appears to indicate that they don't really understand that situation. It is a horrible scope. And in general the scopes unveiled as actual downgrades in effect over the current scopes given that we need about 2.08 times the stats at 80. There better be even better scopes. Because these truly don't cut it. We go from 1.26% crit -> 0.87% crit and 1.90% hit -> 1.22% hit.
This is happening with nearly all the gear though. Look at the LW patches. Each will also be providing less crit at 80 than their counterparts at 70. This is due to the major scaling they did in ratings.

The glove enchant... *sigh* Haste again. Worthless more or less.
This enchant is rather weak unless your class scales well with haste. The rocket launcher "enchant" is exceptionally good though for dps classes. 15 agi is currently worth about 10 dps for my druid. The rocket launcher is worth 19 dps not including crits. With the consolidation of hit/crit this is going to likely be even better. Its a nice perk and sets the precedent for newer ones of these as the endgame progresses and other stats start producing more dps.

Stamina trinket appears to me a great melee trinket. Hunters are once again left standing around wondering where our version is.
Im kinda wondering what "the noise from melee combat" actually means. Does it mean actually melee? Or just being near someone being meleed?

Epic tanking gun... AGAIN??? I hope that is some sort of sick joke on their part. It is just not very friendly towards Hunters. Of course it could just be one of several guns, but we only have TBC to go by, and there we had one epic, also this one is BoP indicating it is a perk for Engies. The same goes for the Blue DPS gun. Wow, a very very marginal upgrade from my crossbow... So where are the good things?
I'd expect this is just the first of them. Look at all the BS weapons and such. I don't see why they'd make the only profession that makes ranged weapons ONLY make a pretty poor gun. If it does stay as such, then yeah this is a pretty valid complaint.
