Because obviously, Warriors in LFR are just too powerful. I mean, a mere 3% nerf to all damage? Pfft. What are we doing here, Blizzard? Clearly, that’s nowhere near enough to address the absolute god-tier dominance of these outrageously overpowered characters. Heaven forbid they hit a button and actually see decent numbers. We need to drag them down, and fast!
And now, in the PBE, we’re getting a cap on Odyn’s Fury and Thunderous Roar at only 5 targets? Wow, Blizzard, really holding back on the punishment there, aren’t we? I mean, if a Warrior can’t single-handedly annihilate the entirety of Azeroth’s wildlife with one button, are we even playing the same game?
What’s next? We just let Warriors have fun? Gasp! The audacity! No, no, clearly what we need here is a little more nerfing. Maybe make them do negative damage. Like, they hit Odyn’s Fury and heal the enemy for 3% instead. That’s balance, right? And Thunderous Roar should just be a cute kitten sound now, because why would you ever want a Warrior to feel powerful in any context?
So yeah, Warriors, prepare yourselves—because clearly, there’s more “balancing” to come. But hey, look on the bright side: maybe one day you’ll be nerfed enough to get that true LFR experience of being bottom of the DPS charts. Fingers crossed!
Fury always struggled with doing dmg in bigger pulls and now when it’s finally decent it’s not even the best when u have multiple other specs that do competitive or even higher dmg lol.
Blizzard you just want fury to do tank damage in bigger pulls like it was for last couple expansions? Think twice before u make such a clueless decision.
You don’t give anything for that nerf.
IF you want to nerf fury BURST AOE THEN CAP WHIRLWIND CLEAVE TO 8 TARGETS INSTEAD OF 5 AS COMPENSATE AND KEEP THE NERFS.
I mean, look at these insanely powerful warriors getting gapped right now in raid. I’m so glad that we are getting more nerfs when these other classes are already, with ease, with half the parses doing more damage.
Our rally is huge, such a lifesaving tool. Maybe the key leader will forget we don’t offer any form of cr, lust or even decent attack range on part with all other melee classes.
Rally is laughable at best. it offers lifesaving for VERY CLOSE edge cases, not as useful as it used to be.
And looking at warriors getting gapped is an understatement. at 99th percentile, we’re getting gapped by augmentation in single target. check sikran’s log for 99th percentile on mythic in WCL.
with this nerf to our aoe, we’ll get gapped by all classes. I’d say it’s not a good time to be playing warrior, but this is the only time warriors were good for 3 expansions. blizzard couldn’t give us a month.
warriors were decent in SL in m+ damage i guess, at least for those who weren’t dumb enough to go for anything besides NF.
Now we’re forced to compete with tanks on dps, have absolutely 0 skills that scale well in m+ pulls, be forced to take a talent made for crit builds (BT’s nerfed CSHB bleed) on a class with 0 use for crit, and watch as smol indie company tells us all about the previous 8 target cap that odyn and TR DIDN’T HAVE, so it looks less stupid changing it to 5.
