From the Forever beta client's own talent tables (build 1.60.1.69977). Talents marked "was" have a new name compared with Classic Era, so their effect has probably changed too. The beta can still change any of this.

Stat priorities

What to look for on gear.

Arms / Fury
  1. Hit %
  2. Strength
  3. Crit %
  4. Agility
  5. Attack power
Protection
  1. Defense
  2. Stamina
  3. Dodge %
  4. Agility
  5. Armor

Starting priorities, based on how Classic stats work. Forever is still in beta and Blizzard is changing stats, so treat these as a starting point. The upgrade checker lets you change the weights.
