Blizzard has access to the numbers for spec damage performance in M+, Raid, PvP. They actually seem to be doing a reasonable job of buffing underperforming classes on a regular basis, hotfixes and weekly maintenance changes have been brimming with tweaks.
But what about us you ask? Well, with raw data on display & with the upcoming nerfs, we are being tweaked into the lower end of mediocrity, and in some cases (Fury ST) getting a slap down to the lower decks.
Okay then, so why will we be fine you ask? Blizzard obviously has people monitoring the numbers, that’s clear from some of the changes.
Then why are DK & Paladin our plate wearing brethren smooshing us so much on the meters, & with their utility toolkits? This is where Blizzard wants us all to be, it must be right??? Those guys are getting no nerfs afterall!!!
Logically this must mean that the recent warrior nerfs have been a rouse, they’re demoralizing us in preparation for some huge class changes, don’t worry guys & gals, there’s no other explanation, a full class rework is on its way! They’re just making sure we’re a bit miserable so we will be extra grateful when it all comes in.
We gonna have;
utility, damage & self sustain
bloodlust
a summonable squire which does all of our daily admin jobs (including writing our overly complex whining forum posts, trying helplessly to get devs to listen)
a tank mount with working turret
an armoury which lets us customize weapons
Witcher potions
lightsabers
a pet spec which we summon dozens of honey badgers and tasmanian devils
Victoria’s secret chainmail underwear
customisable protest war banners, for moments when you feel the need to go on strike in game
finally, fury warriors will be able to duel wield shields to help them deflect any future nerfs
Not proper ones, we’ll be getting versions with the correct sound effects/animations, & they will actually cut people in half. I’m talking legit in looks and ability to dismember and decapitate, I don’t want no transmog, it’s all or nothing.
Idk how but shaman gets rework before tww and it will get another rework next week.
Meanwhile arms didn’t get it’s dragonflight talent rework yet…
I am out here wondering how the hell did they get there feedback?
Like fr the developer handling warriors is not really aware of the class & they don’t know how it works in general. Like people are complaining from the first nerf that we are s^&$ because not everyone got tier yet and no gear. then BAM!
but for mages and rpala it’s ok they can have it with a slap on the wrist.
They’re just teasing us by making all these changes to other already significantly reworked classes. Our rework is going to be the rework of all reworks, it’ll be like nothing we’ve ever seen before. Trust, it’s on they way, they’re definitely, probably, maybe just teasing us with a lack of attention, potentially anyway.
i love how they keep upping the base damage of Raging blow and blood thirst to try and make reckless abandon obsolete so that they can justify those bladestorm nerfs when we go in to anger management and use twice as many of them.
Oh wait they are also nerfing Odyns fury next uppdate reduced damage beond 5 targets now instaid of 8, great keep going after the cleave, it’s the only aspect we’re good on atm.
This week’s raid numbers are looking promising! We’ve fallen off even more, so if my theory is correct our state of demoralization is almost complete, & the class rework & buffs are just around the corner!
