State of the Warrior in SoD

try this build out, your using cleave for aoe targets to have it crit and apply a bleed, and thunderclapping to keep general aggro, switch between devastate and endless rage for single target and aoe.

Our warrior tank held threat easily in the bfd with a ret pumper, rogue, and three ferals ripping apart the bosses. He was 2h.

Shadow priest needs some love we are trash right now its really bad

aww man I can experience in due time /s what kinda take in that we are capped at 25 to slow our roll and they gave warriors a fat nothing burger in some of these runes including the one that makes our PvP experience much more enjoyable behind an insane farm lol

cool let warriors eat a dung sandwich while locks can out tank/sustain any warrior they run into lol since we have no slam or way to stop healers from just bubbling lol like at least realize the idea of SoD was supposed to be not trash classic that these andys love and trash on retail while that is a better experience overall

Warbringer is completely broken and probably will get nerfed. You can’t really complain about the grind (all of the items are tradable btw - you can just buy every single turn in)

Warbringer is far from broken, I would like to see you engage on the meta lock in combat and see who comes out on top LOL how are you a warrior and think them giving us the ability to do something that retail starting warrior has is “OP”
you’re only saying that cause it feels good to not be a sitting duck in combat

A Warlock with Metamorphosis active (which is a terrible build in any sort of real PvP setting because it prevents the Warlock from using Fear) is the only thing a Warrior doesn’t beat 1v1 after getting Warbringer.

Prediction: Warrior is still gonna be the best raid tanks at 60. If things don’t work out now, then that’s fine. I mean, it’s level 25. People are going nuts about BiS etc when it’s just going to be invalidated in a month lol. Heck even BFD doesn’t really matter.

A lot of people have made the argument about what happens at 60, but I think what people are not understanding, is that right now we can’t go past 25, and soon we wont go past 40.

You guys are advocating for the game to be in a state where one class has an absolutely miserable experience for months while we watch other classes have a blast with new and fresh stuff.

It’s literally the “I got a rock” meme.

Also, we don’t know how things will shake out 60. We don’t know what classes will get new things that could potentially shake up the meta. All we know is that right now, warrior isn’t fun- and won’t be for months- in a game mode that was sold as being all about having fun.

The only “valid reasons” are you can kill Warriors and a Rogues in a duel… Warlocks don’t need metamorphosis for that. Soul Link has been the best dueling build for 20 years.

Outside of a duel with Warlocks who happen to be using that one specific rune: Warriors beat everyone 1v1 after Warbringer. That’s broken. It will probably get nerfed.

True, no body knows. But the game will continue to evolve. Each class will have its ups and downs. All I’m really saying, if warrior isn’t fun now, play something else. Level your toon up, and play something else. Who knows, maybe next band warrior will be gods. If not continue playing that other toon.

I play a warrior and a mage. And frankly both are under whelming right now. But, I’m also a casual mindset where I don’t care if I don’t get every rune, or everything cool.

look, SoD is just not for you ok? this is season of hybrids, not season of warrior meta. sorry sweety, maybe its time for your class to take a back seat, sit down, and be humble. as a proud human male ret paladin, i can safely say that SoD is a huuuuuge success and we don’t need, ahem, “”“warriors”“” spoiling it for the rest of us

Warriors are still one of the top dps and best (single target) tank.

Next phase they will have mortal strike which will make them top tier for pvp.

When the solution becomes “just go play another class” a lot of people will just go play another game. Im not saying it isnt an option, but i am saying that blizzard ignoring the outcry from warrior players will hurt them

why do people keep saying it’s the best when clearly not playing the class. Use a source or some evidence if your going to say their the best tank and dps because I assure you, there not. Everyone apparently sees “one warrior” who was top DPS of BFD or got one shotted in a duel, something and that’s just not the reality, especially in PVP where warriors are left in the dust.

I think Warriors are fine for lvl 25…

Warriors have always grown most powerful through the scaling of gear. Always… Most folks just don’t have anything yet? Once the casuals make it through the new 10man a few times thing’s balance out.

Still won’t help against some builds. Never did…

typical classic andy response

Use Consumed by Rage with it

Start a fight by getting to 80 rage, it procs, then dump rage.

CBR+RB is incredibly good and the rage weaving is a very fun mechanic
