It would be nice, if Blizzard brought back the Execute potential warriors had in i.e. Uldir.
At this moment, a raid warrior is just an equivalent to a ticking dot. It has no flavor, does not excel in anything. Warrior has no prio target burst, does not excel in execute, it is just a vibrator that buzzes around the boss and does OK, until you start fighting bosses like Sylvanas (where we were robbed of our super weak execute potential).
In Uldir, warrior was dogpoop from 100% until execute phase, then he crawled back to the top of dps meters. It was good at executing bosses. It was a spec, that you could play around with in similar way that you had play around with balance on Sylvanas mythic. It had flavor.
Give warriors a feature, that will make him special.
Also warrior should have his stupendously designed mythic plus performance rewamped. If you do your thing today, you rip aggro off after first Whirlwind → Rampage combo followed by Aftershock and Bladestorm. Mythic plus performance was super nice in BFA, where we had a powerful DOT (via azerite pieces). Aggro was manageable that way.
And if execute if out of the picture, warrior constant damage should be buffed. Why? Most of the bosses require big CDs, not constant damage (there is simply not enough uptime on important bosses in the last 3 patches, where our constant was irrelevant), so at least we would excel in that.
We simply can not make an impact on fight such as Lihuvim, where no warrior on can make a difference while burning inactive automa.
Cos powerful Execute is kinda problematic to balance not all fights even have execute phase, some have multiple and some are almost only execute phase, what kinda make spec balance around Execute to ping pong between usless and god
Alsow on progress when you group is not reaching last % of boss and you are right above tanks in DPS it kinda make hard is some guild to say why they shoudnt repleace you cos you will top on execute
Making points that warior is meh when top 2 DPS spec on hc ( too early for Mythic data) are Fury and Arms is kinda…
I like the current Warrior iteration, although its true, I kinda miss the execute spam. Maybe ande the execute procs at execute range will bring back some of its altered identity as a spec.
both warrior specs are at bottom atm. my 97 parse wasn’t even close to top dps with blue parse in our group. That nerf hit warriors really hard and even without the nerf probably damage is still not enough.
Warrior top dps?
Thats why method and all other top guilds that have all different classes in their raids and their fury warrior(s) are at 6th 7th place in dps.
Sure poping reck and all CDs make you do big damage but out of that you fall to 6th or 7th dps classs/spec.
Even hybrid classes such as boomkins do better in dps.
