Make arms into a healing spec

You read it right, make Warrior arms spec into healing.

Why the hell not, Paladin gets S tier tank, S tier heals and for some reason gets a ‘viable’ dps spec which now competes with fury.

Spread it around, give Warriors a third PvE option since we only get two. That was the justification for buffing Paladin after all.

I don’t really understand… The title of the thread is about a warrior spec, but the body of the thread is about Paladin specs? Just another thinly-veiled Paladin rage thread?

Call it whatever you want. Rets got buffed unjustifiably and I’m welcome to my torment of Blizzard for being cowards.

Several classes were buffed with the iLvl increase, including paladins.

And yet rets fell further behind than we were in Naxx (and fury significantly passed us when they used to be behind).

That buff was not even in impact, and resulted in a relative nerf to rets due to our poor gear scaling.

@Bladetsar-arugal

Rets have more utility, that should be the end of this discussion in regards to their dps. Nevermind the fact they have S tier tank (with no competitor) and S tier heals.

And locks have stackable utility too, while being top tier DPS.

Utility is a terrible argument for being below the bottom of the DPS meter, especially when that utility isn’t unique to ret. There were 50% more fury warrior kills of Algalon, and almost equal arms warrior kills on him as there were Rets before the buff, and that’s a fight where the utility people love to throw in Ret’s face was best.

So… Rets were being avoided on the fight where Ret has the most useful utility, so it stops really making sense to say “but you have utility!” As an argument.

I knew I kept my flask set for a reason …

I don’t even want a fury dmg increase, I’m fine with trying to carve out my niche. What I’m not fine with are Prot Paladins being two tiers above the next tank and the stats reflecting that.

Unjustifiably? Incorrect.

If you think that Warriors are underpowered, then try making a case for it without whining about other classes. Because what you’re REALLY telegraphing is that you think DPS is a zero-sum game and that you’re simply jealous of other classes.

Sure, nerf Prot paladins… I don’t care. Tanks shouldn’t have a cheat death.

I agree with Smeetologist on this one. Cheat death mechanics are just cheese. I don’t really like it in the game at all.
