Uhhh, consider this partially the details phenomenon in that absorbs or healing is a means of mitigating incoming damage for warriors whereas in shadowlands 20/20 dstance wouldn’t have shown.
Warr was shifted into some self healing in this case because it’s a little easier to balance than dstance just making you a ms applying tank that peels or shuts everything down.
Similar to how hunter’s kiting to avoid damage isn’t shown anywhere.
Every time people complain about warrior sustain, I think of one of the last times warrior got played in AWC. Supatease was going on about how hard it would be to kill the warrior and that warrior self healing is really strong, meanwhile you can see the meters where the warrior was being outhealed by two of the other DPS and ultimately died, then they swapped him out for a rogue.
I’m not even sure why we’re so hung up the only class that literally needs to be standing next to you to hit you having mitigation anyway.
Most “melee” at this point can hit you from 30 yards away, or they have an auto charge and can play hit and run style (WW), or are a rogue and don’t deserve to be counted as melee anyway.
We can talk about Bladestorm being annoying but lol “warrior healing” is not the hill to die on.
Yeah, there’s a distinct lack of nuance when comparing defensive kits.
This is also started to feel super dated for warr, like I really expect them to add 3 yard increased melee range to arms at some point or whatever because good grief does this class feel ancient in pve.
Dude I have been trying to do keys this season on another warrior and it is so bad. I have to stand in the death to do damage and run out during, meanwhile rets are standing back by the casters doing their full rotation.
I can’t brez. I can’t lust. I have no CC. I can’t heal my team. I have no dispels. I don’t even do higher damage than the other melee.
Considering I have games on my enhance where my ‘aoe’ healing to an entire team is barely equal the self healing of a warrior, i’d say that is an issue.
Healing surge is a waste of a global on your team these days.
you will say the damage is high
they will say well look at the raid boss they do tons more
create a thesis as to why you are wrong and that warriors deserve to be op
…excuse me I’ll use the term warriors use “balanced” and how “every class” should. be
