Any warriors plan on skipping ARP for S8?

We’re in the last patch of wotlk where ARP is nerfed, so it takes more to reach soft/hardcap if im understanding correctly, so it will take more ARP than it did in vanilla wotlk s8 to reach these breakpoints, making it even harder to mix pve gear in with pvp gear to obtain these numbers.

Whos going mostly pvp gear for s8 instead of ARP soft/hard cap?

In full bis you are running around 70% ARP and 1105 resil.

ArP was originally nerfed in soon after the start of S7. S8 was played in full with the nerfed ArP stat.

Back then I was a str Warrior and had no issues beating Shadowmourne arp Warriros, not sure if it will still be the case this go round in S8.

If I can rem right, I had around 800res and 100% arp for 2’s but in 3’s and 5’s a full resil stack was needed.

I rock full PvP gear with Grim Toll/Mjolnir Runestone, as a player that has tried all builds for Warrior that one is my favorite.

I’ve done that myself it’s not bad at all!

A classic vid or it didn’t happen post

full resil gives you stats like this slightly over 30% less damage from players, that is all damage, not rounded up, 100% of everything that comes at you from any player at all is 30% less effective. You have crits now having a 15% less chance to proc, the crits that do proc cause 33% less damage.

Oh hey, didn’t answer OP thread question. For warriors, I had mine, was fun. Idk. Depends on what your spec is and how you play for what you stack. A warrior full S8 gear in arms spec…all you got to do is pop one single bladestorm right ontop of cloth healer after they are cc…and they die. You as a warrior should have a team that focus on allowing you to go full out Hulk mode as often as you can.

Edit:…oh I still kinda didn’t answer him. I said other things though about how cool warriors were back then. Reckful the rogue made a warrior of his own after the rogue was given to him by a friend. He played a female toon most times that he modeled to look like his sister to honor her. I call him Reckful the rogue. Even though that was not the one he created, it still was rightfully his. Best PvPer ever. He got banned because Blizzard took notice of an account that went from just average to highest rating ever in the world at that time and then when someone reported it was not the original owner, he got banned for “boosting/win trading by account pilot” even though that was not the case. He was not boosting that account for someone else. He was playing one that the owner had given to him. Best rogue ever exists in Wrath, best paladin ever did too. One passed away, the other quit WoW to go run a cult.

I’m not a fan of armor penetration. The way that armor diminishing returns work causes it to be extremely effective against low armor targets.
