Jairek has posted a guide in the SI:7 Library on how the new burning crusade rating system will work compared to the way percentages work with the current system. He goes over how your +%crit items will be effected. Very good read! It looks like Hand of Justice will keep its scalability as well! Hold on to that one!

The Entire system seems to work around the idea of forcing people to upgrade, as well as making sure the +crit +hit items dont get out of control in the new expansion and future expansion. My first response was of course... ah crap nerf! But closer consideration makes me say props to blizz for making a decent effort at fighting mudflation. Moves like this will make sure WoW stays playable for a long time and does not sky rocket into the +100 STA items by the next expansion.
