Anyone else find Prot Warrior super boring this expansion?

Aside from have no self healing, it also comes down to just charge, stomping, shield slamming and then Blocking until the sun comes down. Just seems so…basic. Anyone else feel this way about it?

i don’t find proc warrior boring at all,dies fast but isn’t that what warriors do?

Prot Warrior is supposed to be the “Vanilla” tank option. I dunno, I have fun with mine.

I think its really fun tbh, mobility is everything in this game and Warriors have it in spades. I’m just sad their kit isn’t cohesive like the Prot Pally.

I could forgive their gameplay if they at least had decent self heals. It’s really dumb to me that literally every other tank can self sustain, but warriors are still kept as the “nah, just die, bro” tanks.

Pray for leech to proc on your gear.

All current tanks are rotationally boring.

Yeah,but i’m just glad i don’t have to worry too much on that with a bag load of bandages and food like before,gg.

At least mine an alchemist .

What I can’t wrap my head around is how Warriors, of all classes, somehow became the squishiest class in all of WoW.

Prove me wrong.

Mage.lol. you’re wrong.

I completely beg to differ - as mage you have some of the strongest personal shields in the game, insane mobility as well… oh yes and a “Nope” button to avoid certain death, allowing you to survive things no warrior possibly could.

doesn’t make the mage not squishy.

Warrior tanks are fine they just do low DPS and that makes them bad in keys. Warrior tanks do really well against Tyrannical bosses in my opinion.

nope,three hits and it’s gone and sometime just one,warrior can self heal (forget what they use right now ) and have mitigation.

While I agree, at least they have cool stuff going on. DH turns into a demon, bear is a burr, DK gets cool shadow spells and zombies and Paladin is a light show. Warrior is just stomp and smack.

They should just rework their abilities to work like a prot pally.

I’d make Revenge apply ignore pain when it’s a free cast, make Victory Rush a free proc after X# of Shield Slams, and have Shield Slam apply Shield Block.

Then they’d be equal to Prot Pallys and have a fun rotation.

In the same turn, I’d love to see Prot Pallies get a big boy mobility move – like Heroic Leap but flavored in Paladin. So like Consecrated Path from PoE or something similar.

But then you end up with the MDI andy’s crying about Tanking being boring because you don’t get blown up by trash mobs.

It got super super boring since Legion.
Not only is the spec rage starved, it’s button starved. Literally there is not much to press for long periods. Literally it’s waiting for things to come off 5-8 second cooldowns.

Go ahead and try it with that Deveststor talent and have one less button to push. Tell me that’s more fun.

They need to do something with Revenge, it shouldn’t be a rage spender. Why does WW cost rage too??? It should be free and a build rage.

Roll it back to WoD gameplay or better please.

100% agree. Solid on everything you said.

I mean your premise is wrong.

DK and Paladin have high self sustain.
DH and Druid have medium self sustain.
BM and Warrior have very low self sustain.

There’s not really a scenario where a healer dies halfway through the boss fight and a BM heals themselves through it, and while it’s technically possible for a druid or DH it’s going to require some gamey dodging to pull it off.

BM tanks can still on-demand heal themselves though. Not saying any of them are telling the healer to take a hike.
