Warriors Nerfed

it seems that only some warriors are nerfed. Arms warriors in my guild say they dont really see much of a difference. They seem quite happy.

However my lock lost about 1k dps at first. But had to adjust gems, enchants and talents. Seems fine now.
 
With Duel Spec and an arms build I have been seeing some reasonable results. Just need some more armor penetration gear and a decent weapon. But I agree the heady Fury days of 4 fury warriors at 4/5k dps plus and Sath 3D in 70 odd sec's I think are gone.

And warrior tanking is very average, the dps output as a prot warrior sucks, magic damage burns our butt and busting my finger spamming HS is not a great gaming experience at all.

So overall not our finest moment.

dps output for protection spec warriors is not the point of tanking. Comparing protection warrior dps to class whose sole reason for existance is pure dps, is incorrect. Yes dmg generates threat, but its your spell rotation that is more important. You should be trying to proc sword and board for shield slams and using revenge as often as possible.
 
I totally agree. Between our MT's, a warrior (played by my son) and our Pally tank, I prefer healing the pally in raids.

The warrior went DPS as a result of other classes being able to 'tank better'. Now I think he'll just get that lock to 80 and put the old warrior on ice for a while.

Warriors tank fine. Our MT is a warrior and he does brilliantly. Our guild uses bears, paladins and warriors. They all tank bosses fine. We found bears a problem in some fights where there are multiple adds, especially in waves. They dont have the AoE threat abilities that paladins and warriors have. Then we just put the bear on the boss and the warriors pick up the adds. No problem.

With my warrior, i usually offtank. When there is no need for offtank, the dual-spec is brilliant as i can now do some decent dps as well. Sometimes the MT goes dps and I tank.

Our healers have no problems healing warriors.
 
I was a tank before and I hated it so duel spec is actually usless to me unless I go full fury or full arms. but at the moment I have lost about 1k dps from the nerf have a fury/arms talent table
