In the recent post there was something mentioned about lack of, or possibly removal of tanking weapons.
This makes it sound like tanks will be rolling against a bunch of DPS classes now, including other Warriors if they go through with an alternative to Titans Grip.Will there still be tank weapons since Defense as a stat is going away?
We will still make weapons with Stamina and perhaps hit on them. They may not be as valuable as tanking weapons are today without defense, but that's probably not a bad thing. We won't make a ton of them in any case since half the tank classes don't want them.
I personally love tank weapons, and do not know where they got the notion that tanks don't want tanking weapons. Not only do I like weapons that increase mitigation/avoidance, I really dislike having to roll against a bunch of DPS.
I would have posted this in the Warrior forums, since that is what I play, but this really concerns all tanking classes.
Thoughts on this? Would you like to use DPS weapons in Cata? Will there still be "Tank Weapons" with just a bit more Stam like they said in the blue post?
