Warriors currently worst class in Shadowlands?

Bajheera went Nightfae and he is crushing everyone in arenas :laughing:

308

Did he really? Wow. Weird, because he said he liked the Kyrian aesthetics and they seem to be preferred.

309

If you have problems keeping on characters it is great, otherwise I think the nf is way better. Dude hit me 10k and stunned me with it. My jaw dropped. Meanwhile my condemn is hitting for 3k 4k, then I got no abilities until 35%. I would switch if I didn’t like the zone so dang much.

He was going to join the Kyrian but decided last minute to go Nightfae instead.

311

I’ve deleted a pair of druids in a BG with Ancient Aftershock. Was pretty fun.

Max said he knew warriors were weak and thought blizz would’ve buffed them more going into mythic. They had 2 geared and ready. He said if he were to change anything it would be to replace atrocity with another monk if they had a 2nd for denathrius. Class is terrible and blizz wont fix it til next tier if at all.

It’s not, though.

314

What? The one spec that works with the one Covenant competitively maybe?

Not sure how else you could describe it as less than terrible.

That’s great for Arms. I still want some buffs for Fury.

This is not accurate at all. Both Kyrian and Night Fae are performing very well. Neither of them are very far behind Condemn spam ST. Both are a lot stronger in AoE, and both don’t suffer the dead zone of burst that Venthyr does.
Yeah, Fury warriors absolutely need a ST buff. Arms could use a little bit more to put them upper middle of the pack. That doesn’t mean you can’t compete in any of the content out there right now. People need to stop blaming the class for all of their poor performance.

Of course. Its just one part of a poorly constructed puzzle of power balance.

What…?

Literally have zero idea what you’re talking about.

I’d be surprised if you’re not playing an Arms Warrior in the Venthyr Covenant.

I’m not, I’m Night Fae. Three out of four covenants are very good for warriors. Saying that only one spec/covenant combo is competitive is completely wrong.

I agree with you, I am venthyr currently but seriously debating swapping to nf/kyrian.

322

Arms dropped down to 15 on Wowhead and no balance patch.

Arms is good Damage wise Fury needs a huge buff!

324

Arms is no where near ‘good’ damage wise. Even more so if you aren’t Venthyr. Good enough to warrant being brought for 5% damage buff? Absolutely.

Its been shown several times that Night Fae and Kyrian are competitive on Single Target with Venthyr for Arms Warriors.

Here’s a 95 Percentile parse on Mythic Shriekwing of a Kyrian Warrior.

Here’s another one (97%) for Mythic Hungering Devourer.

Is Venthyr the best single target? 100% can you still play other covenants, have competitive single target AND better AoE? Yup!

Arms is also a little below middle of the pact in terms of DPS for single target. A slight buff maybe, but for the most part its fine. If you’re at the top, theres a good chance you’ll be nerfed. Middle of the pact is a good spot for single target, especially since Arms has powerful when two target cleave.

Arms has three strong covenant choices.

Same to you. Both Kyrian and Night Fae are strong.
