Relics/Wands/Statsticks

The ranged slot is being removed for everyone in 5.0. Relics are gone. Ranged Weapons will be usable in the main hand by appropriate classes. Wands will become a type of main hand weapon. This effectively is a slight nerf to the stats of everyone equally, so doesn't cause class balance concerns.

This was stated in the Q&A

If I understand this right hunters will be losing a statstick that gives 400+ agility and everyone else around 130 int/str/agil

How will we not notice the loss?

In 5.0, ranged weapons will get the same stat budget as two-handed weapons currently do.
