Warrior mobility

It is pretty difficult for MM to kite warriors for long.

Really need to be on your game with scatter for self peels, steel trapping out and typically trying to line in that period so he cant charge reconnect to you.

Teammate politely swaps to the Warrior just long enough to break it. :innocent:

The problem is most understand to stagger BS/Avatar, so a steel trap won’t stick for the first 2 minutes of the game.

The warrior himself can basically stick to a marks hunter like glue, and will Sb/sw/disarm each trap attempt and add fear into this mix during trueshot. It either negates the marks hunter completely, or baits offensive trinket opening up a win condition.

Right now warrior is one of the hardest specs on 3s to deal with as marks due to this toolkit.

Only exception being in 2s, no freedom, and the hunter takes conc pvp talent.

Have you considered trapping off of other stuff so the traps are longer? :thinking:

root trap. /end thread.

Hunter is only 2nd to mage in the warrior kiting dept, sounds like l2p issues.

Yes considering mages and other range can 2-3 shot me while i get stunned, rooted, knocked backed, disarmed, fear spammed, coiled, then i finally get to the mage/lock he blinks/gateways/alters etc legit such a pain trying to have any uptime believe it or not. charge on a 20s cd and leap on a 45s cd, blink a charge, knockback the next one, cc me or root the leap gg 20 seconds minimum you can kite me without me touching you.

Like others have said you still have things to do. Essentially, if you are doing jt right they will give up trying to kill you giving a big open.

If you are bm it should be much easier for you because you can do all that while still pressuring kill target.

I prefer mm and you really have to be on your game with your utility to make distance and somethimes that can be hard.

Please go level a Warrior and then go PVP without using any of your gap-closing abilities and then report back.

Yea I had that experience on my MM, I was like 2800-2900mmr and I felt like warriors I ran into were professional MM slayers you could never escape, especially if other DPS was intent on ignoring them and not peeling or helping peel.

Having a priest was like my only hope to grip me on occasion and give breathing room or druids to clone in between.

They are a ton easier to manage on mages, my sympathy goes to MM one tricks.

I definitely sympathize with you.

idk mage is 1 thing, but locks r very hittable

Your berserkers gives immunity

Never said it was. The post you took that out of context was a direct reply to someone claiming that a warrior is countered by a trap.

I simply explained that the kiting matchup of warrior vs hunter in 3s how the warrior can negate those abilities without any partner assistance, and the roughly 30 second rotation of sw/sb/disarms effect on a hunter trying to kite a warrior.

Since bs/Avatar staggering almost completely negates steel trap, 2 charges and leap to each disengage cd, and disarm prevents bursting/scatter/conc I feel it’s relevant to the discussion of warrior uptime.

Warriors struggle against frost mages, and certain bonkers wizard triangles that need fixes. However warriors mobility is pretty out of control out of these situations. If the triangles of death get nerfed, warriors would still be nutty.

melee talking about precog, but if i wasnt running precog, I can juke a kick, run away, then i still have 5 different micro CCs to work through.

right now everyone has too many tools in the bag. just like mop.
