I’ve been playing Warrior since Vanilla, and honestly, it’s time for a change.
Right now, Warriors bring very little unique utility to a group. I understand if you don’t want to give us Bloodlust – fine. But we still need something that makes us more valuable to our team beyond just raw damage or tanking.
Also, whatever utility you give us should work across all specs – Arms, Fury, and Protection. Warriors shouldn’t have to sacrifice their preferred playstyle just to contribute meaningfully to the group.
Please consider bringing back some of the iconic tools that made “old school Warriors” both fun and essential. Here are a few that should return as baseline or talent options:
Storm Bolt (Talent)
30 yd range · Instant · 30 sec cooldown
Hurl your weapon at an enemy, dealing 125% weapon damage and stunning them for 4 sec. Deals 500% weapon damage to targets immune to stuns.
This ability combined with Colossus Smash in MoP was epic for Fury Warriors – please bring that synergy back!
Disrupting Shout (Talent)
Instant · 40 sec cooldown
Interrupts all spellcasting within 10 yards and locks out that school for 4 sec.
Shares a 15 sec cooldown with Pummel.
Vigilance
40 yd range · Instant · 2 min cooldown
Protect an ally for 12 sec, reducing their damage taken by 30%. While active, your Taunt has no cooldown.
Safeguard (Talent)
25 yd range · Instant · 30 sec cooldown
Charge to a party or raid member, removing all movement-impairing effects on you, intercepting the next melee or ranged hit against them, and reducing their damage taken by 20% for 6 sec.
Replaces Intervene.
Mass Spell Reflection (Talent)
Instant · 1 min cooldown
Reflects the next spell cast on you and all party/raid members within 20 yards for 5 sec.
Reworked Rallying Cry (Suggestion)
Talent · Instant · 3 min cooldown
Grants all party and raid members within 40 yards a 12 sec buff that reduces damage taken by 30%.
(Instead of a simple health boost, this would make Warriors a true defensive pillar in group content.)
These tools brought skill expression, utility, and fun to the class. Right now, Warriors feel one-dimensional. It’s time to bring the glory back – across all specs.
Also – please bring back Odyn’s Fury with its original 8-target limit, or at the very least, increase Whirlwind to hit 8 targets by default again.
Right now, our AoE from FURY in dungeons feels incredibly weak. We need tools that let us stay competitive in Mythic+ without sacrificing our ability to deal damage in raids. Give us the flexibility to shine in both!
We truly hope to see a response or meaningful changes still within this expansion. Warriors have been patient – now it’s time to be heard.
