Playing warrior in arena is the least fun it’s ever been for me. Losing feels bad, and winning doesn’t even feel good. I’m in a constant state of frustration until the match ends.
It’s a weird place to be in. I’ve mained warrior since BC, and I’ve always had fun in arenas. However, lately it just feels miserable.
Its not even arena itself, i played on my hunter and immediately had a good time, but I think its the state of warrior in general. I miss the days of bringing utility to the game, and actually being a real threat when I had uptime on my target.
right now it feels like i press 4 buttons, cycling through my dps rotation and waiting til they make a mistake. The only comp i get excited to face, sadly, is other warrior comps.
If i had real tools to bring to games where i could make some plays, i think it’d be far more enjoyable. Intervene to eat traps/blinds, banners to close gaps, spell reflect and disarm without having to basically choose one or the other, etc etc.
I’m sure most players feel this way about their mains right now, but it bums me out. I’m heavily considering just hanging up the warrior and moving on.
sadly i didnt start getting back into arena until i think it was the 3rd nerf of their 4 week nerf streak.
I just want the ability to help my team and setup kills. I’m at a point where I’ve thought multiple times, “man, if I had an intervene right now I could help you.”
and the moment I start daydreaming about something as simple as intervene, it leads me to realize just how much warriors seem to be missing with utility.
what I think would make us good is Shattering Throw and maybe baseline stormbolt. that would make it at least situatinallywonderful. and also help countering RMPala
I’d trade stormbolt for charge stun, intervene and intercept any day. Would also love 1her/shield into shield block revenge spam on all these moron dks running around.
