Warrior is officailly the worst dps plate in m+, thanks bliz i hate you

For M+ keys 8 and above I noticed that it’s way easier to do the same DPS on RET, FROST, and UNHOLY with 5 less ilvl. You can gear the nuts out of your warrior and still get owned by any other plate wearer with 5 less ilvls. Fury just loses so much value at high keys because the mobs outlast the initial burst quite easily. Now they nerf the aoe burst and the sustain is MID AF. ST is MID AF. Mountain Thane sucks, Slayer sucks, it all sucks and I’m forced to reroll and spend more time and G on a new class. THIS WAS BLIZZARDS PLAN ALL ALONG: GET PLAYERS TO START A WARRIOR, INVEST TIME EFFORT AND GOLD THEN NERF IT TO THE GROUND FORCING THEM TO REROLL AND SPEND MORE SPEND MORE SPEND MORE. DISGUSTING. MEANWHILE OK LET’S BUFF THE CRAP OUT OF FDK ALL GOOD IN THE HOOD.

Meanwhile, my mountain thane fury warrior friend ripped out 3.8 mill and shredded a fire mage in dps with more gear on a triple pull in necrotic wake. The nerfs aren’t great, but they are not as bad as people are making it out to be.

Meanwhile, Fury does 800k dps on the next pull while FDK and Ret continue to pull strong numbers every pull.

Do you know the riddle of steel? What is stronger, the sword or the hand that wields it?

Steel will rust and the flesh grows old but it is the conviction of the one who swings it where true strength lies.

Edit: true warriors know what is best in life.

Due to the nerfs, we got a low acceptance rate in M+ :frowning:

that was blowing your cooldowns. Afterward, you did subpar dps. if youre gonna paint, paint the whole picture, not just the odd looking sun in the corner.

I dont play mythics but I do farm the bee’s I have no problem pulling 3 elites and 2 normals, mind you theres no time limit and no tank rushing to the next pack so I take advantage of that and pull when cds are just about ready, but even after all the nerfs im bursting 1.3m and maintaining 550k-600k dps sustained so I dont complain

Well idk what to tell you. The warrior I run with is having zero problems and is routinely near the top in dps. Then again, he doesn’t post on the forums and complain, he just adapted and found newer and better solutions. However, we are both keystone hero and are starting to push 11’s so we are definitely in a minority bracket. Idk what to tell you friend. I’m not trying to be rude, I’m just pointing out it isn’t nearly as bad as everyone is making it out to be.

We’ll most certainly be beaten by better specs when people play well, but Warrior does have solid overall damage in keys if you play Mountain Thane Fury or Colossus Arms.

Single target is kind of a wash no matter what though in keys.

He switched to mountain thane fury and that is what he’s been doing. I don’t see him pulling 6 million on burst pulls like a boomkin but he’s almost always near the top.

Anyone else find it kind of weird when people comment on warriors, but post with a non warrior alt/main?

Or when you look them up and they’ve not bothered to do any content where it matters at all while also playing very poorly.

You realize you’re complaining about people complaining, yeah? Lol

Really, this is so stupid. Someone has to be the lowest… /sarcasmon QQ Warrior is not #1 in every possible part of the game, I hate you blizz… /scarcasmoff

Even elementary school children understand this concept.

It’s crazy how poorly fury performs compared to other plate melee in M+. I just ran a +10 Siege, a Templar Ret pally 3 ilvl lower than me (Thane Fury) was able to do 1.62M overall dps vs. my 1.34M overall, he parsed 98 and I parsed 97, so almost exact in terms of player “skill”.

Templar ret is able to do the same burst as me with their 45 sec cd, (wake of ashes/ hammer of light) as I am able to do with all my 1.5 min cds. Sure, if I ran Slayer my burst would be higher, but I would lose even more on the overall. Every pack ret is able to do what I am every 2 or 3.

Idk how blizzard thinks a Ret Pally’s ONE 45 sec cd should be as impactful as a fury warrior popping FOUR 1.5 min cds.

Not to mention all the utility ret has as well

Isn’t it nuts that Blizzard thinks Wake of Ashes should have the same cooldown as Sweeping Strikes? Make it make sense. Divine toll only being 45 second cooldown is kinda crazy compared to our Shadowlands ability, the spear…
