I think this was a very good change, but it will fuck people over if we don't get a proper respec.  The horse riding difficulty changes (like courser going from 4 to 6 riding) was a very good change.  But there was no respec, so it really fucked over quite a few people.  I think this new WPF rework will fuck over even more people.  That being said, I think it's an important change, and one that I always felt made the most sense.  You shouldn't get "free" WPF unless you put points into Agility or WM.
