There isnt a single weapon I’m excited about or that is really even more then a 50dps upgrade from ZG and BWL.
im sure many other classes have similar thoughts going into this phase.

Yeah warriors wil actually be doing basically the same dps due to nerfs and everyone else gets big upgrades
All other things being equal, a P5 bis warrior will do LESS damage than a P4 bis warrior. The new ZG world buff is the only thing that props warriors back up a bit.
Rogue tanks are getting a 20% nerf lol
They are making plenty of changes for both raids and have upgraded lots of items…Did you not read any of the posts they made ? They can’t just keep upgrading gear or the power creep would be too much as time goes on. ZG is a catch up raid for alts and to get enchants for mains not for you to get bis gear in. BWL on the other hand has loads of new updates. Not sure what the issue is. Hope you have a great day Elvo 
Power creep has been expected ever since the end of Phase 1 
There was a chance to put the breaks on, but I imagine it was a tough decision because you either keep attempting to deliver on expectations or pull a 180.
The issue is that the new items aren’t upgrades for warriors. Even with them nerfing empyrean demolisher from 1ppm (it’s normal proc rate btw) down to .6ppm, it is still within 20 dps of crul on sims. Which means that if you get good uptime on procs you will still do more damage. The nerf didn’t do anything but make warriors potential dps more of a lottery to achieve. We’re still using the level 40 crafted helmet from gnomer that gives 20% attack speed for 10 seconds. Current sims are using 3+ squawk buffs to help warrior even approach the dps of top performers. They should’ve thought about power-creep before we started hitting wotlk levels of dps.
They’re slapping insane procs on some of these new weapons for so many specs and then some of us are just like, where upgrade? This shield isn’t helping me do more dps as fury.
Tanks → who cares
