11.1 Patch notes... Prot warrior

Is blizzard trying to kill M+ or just homogenize tanking completely?

Lets see, nerf Prot warrior (including coming tier set effect), could this get dumber… and more boring? yes it could, by do nothing to BM monk, makes sense. VDH, bit of a kiss curse. Gdruid meh, redesign could be cool, maybe, maybe, im sure that will be screwed as well… Blood dk, clunky as hell, maybe rather do something to opening rotation over nerfing warrior.

And yes, lets buff pally, cause it is already S tier so lets make that stronger, lets destroy the other A tier tank and leave the rest at the bottom more or less alone. So what does this mean; gear prot pally and only pally, sure thing, sounds like real fun. Great way to support players playing what they enjoy (by making it not enjoyable) and push to make meta more meta.

This is to the devs:
Why even nerf tanks in the first place? do you not realize that big part of the reason M+ is dying can be credited to the horrendously stupid changes made to the tanks (and heals) ending DF?
The red flags were the size of Burj Khalifa! Not a single content creator was excited about the direction M+ was taking with heals & tank nerfs, yet this detached motley crew still went ahead and did it, now you cant find tank and heals for M+, and what do yall do; nerf another tank and leave rest that are already dying to white hits in the dust.

coolbeans, im sure M+ will be great in S2, keep up the good work

That’d be great if threat hadn’t been a problem since Burning Crusade.

Every season they make tanking harder earlier in the season and then back pedal.

It’s w.e I’m warrior I’m used to nerfs and buffs

Prot will still be great and only worse than pallies because we can’t force move mobs as good as paladins.
