Rend can stay a Talent. It shoul only be buffed and spreadable by cleave to make it viable. Ww isnt that far behind slam in terms of dpr and pulls ahead on trash. I use fevored Ww and get good results with only minor singletarget reductions. I also got the ww legandary belt
Rend would be nice as a mechanical ability, but not as just a press it and forget. It needs to have a secondary effect to be interesting, which is why it did have a secondary effect when they tried to make it useful in WOTLK.

What nerfs do you guys till might come to arms warrior once they update the spell changes notes?
fairly new to warriors
Nerfs? None aside from the Archavons Heavy Hand (Legendary) nerf. Arms already got gutted earlier in the expansion, thankfully it scales well with gear and so it survived but I really doubt any further nerfs are going to happen. Stranger things have happened though, Blizzard makes changes with balance and design that make no sense all of the time, so I guess place your bets.

I hope they do and give it some type of buffs or setup buffs from other skills, or procs. Rend has always been a regular skill since Vanilla.
But on another note, yes I fucking hate Rend in few areas ... like taking up a whole GCD. But it's a ticking dot so what's there to hurt?
The legendary ring and the gloves already have been nerfed thoroughly on the ptr. I would expect further "fixes" to tone down mastery scaling since they implied multiple times they were not happy how much stronger second stats are for certain classes. I am going to prepare my fury artifact after trials ^.
I think arms already suffered enough. Making it also dependent on applying a dot in melee range at this point without a full rework can only hurt.
Well there was no mention of the ring being nerfed in the datamining posted on the front page, all I heard was a frenzy of panic within 20mins of the PTR being up and then nothing confirming it outright. So I don't know if the ring is nerfed or not, at least I've not seen any conclusive proof or datamining notes with anything about it.

If it is then it doesn't affect most people, same as the gloves.

They have to buff our base dmg after those nerfs to gloves and ring(Yeah ring is nerfs as well many people have tester it on ptr) or we will fall behind... again. It would be great if blizzard would leave arms as it is now, no spell changes, legendaries nerfs etc. It is a bit sad that we need gloves to be on pair with different dps classes, but after getting them the class feels great.
I am really scared that they will do some strange changes to our abilities and stats weight and our class will be trashed for no reason.
