Lol Arms is bad? Try playing a ret pally first
Yeh I figured you were and for PVP maybe your right. I should have added pve, there’s a lot of vid’s up if you go searching. Besides that warriors builds are tight as, I play fury and prot and they are in a very good spot. As I said if they get a nice dps balance pass once raiding starts they will remain S tier.
Would like to echo OPs concerns with arms specifically in pvp. It feels like we dont apply the pressure we always had through execute, CS, MS and MS debuff.
Coupled with our severly lacking survival as a result of loosing ignore pain (significant nerf) and the despicable state of defensive stance I have not been able to push any meningful rated content. It has caused me to play prot in rated SS as I have yet to see a single arms 1800 or above.
Yes i am salty, and even though its easy to pin op as being negative i completely understand the post and hope to see further attention brought to fixing arms.

Cant be the top dog forever. Times change and every spec gets its time to shine and also its time in the dumpster.
Hey Arms warriors, get cozy in your dumpster.
Druid and RMP says hi.

I don’t think half these zugzug brains realize Arms got a massive nerf a month ago putting Fury ahead again for all pve content which is dumb af, let’s force all warriors one spec again… oh and pvp? Well let’s increase the player health pool by 40% ruining a burst class like arms so now we have to… you guessed it play fury again for pvp…. Love playing my burst main class that should be strong at launch before people get large hp pools. Well …. my main for both PVE and PVP. Guess I won’t play Dragonflop like I was planning. Stop forcing warrior mains to to only have 1 dps spec blizz & have to forcesight to buff a burst class when you increase the hp pool by 40%! 40%! And they can’t think to buff a burst class for pvp. Mind blowing!

Oh shut up Yeet loser. I’ve been wanting to play arms for years! The only time I Couldave played it was during Shi tolands and no way was I going to continue that pointless unfullfilling grind. Guess I have to wait another 4years you DONKEY! What a dumb comment “can’t be too dog forever” as if we have been too dog often. I have so much mean things to say to you but I’ll refrain
Does it smell like up-dog in here? or “too” dog?

Druid is a class, not a spec. Fury is doing just fine and prot looks very strong.
As for RMP, I counter with WLD.
Guess I did. Enjoy Dk you lol

Lol Zurp!
he said “top” I was rage typing and misspelled
Arms playstyle is so much more engaging that 3 button Fury spamming raging blow… Not at all happy with current arms damage , anyways, huge let down.
I know you misspelled it because you were rage typing lol.
And honestly, I used to love complex rotations but now I enjoy braindead rotations because its a nice break from the complex ones. But that’s just me.

Reading the Nov. 15 patch notes the went full “we don’t want you playing this class / spec” with arms warrior. Across the board they gutted damage.
Well all the nay-sayers in this post have been made to look like fools. Arms is practically useless in PvP.
I’ve always preferred fury over arms (save for in Legion), but seeing this spec in the dumpster makes my heart ache. It’s probably all the pizza I ate over the weekend, but still. I tend to switch to arms for a fun change (in PvE, at least) and arms was always my go-to PvP spec. Now it’s just… hope the enemy doesn’t survive your burst or it’s GG (which is 95% of the time).

I have been doing pretty well in most BG’s. Do I do as much damage as a DH?
Hell no.
In terms of PVP Arms is a solid C/B depending on how you play it. Some builds are performing better than others. The nerf doesnt seem to hurt the skullsplitter burst as much as a thought it would.
In terms of PVE however, Arms is an outright SAVAGE at single target pulls for raid.
Arms warrior absolutely dunks on people in cds so idk what ur talking about, even with just colossus smash, you do very considerable damage, with every cd popped arms warrior has some of the highest burst in the game
Been styling on people all night as arms. Its gonna be strong the woe is me thing is bfa part 2
