    in WSG with 50% pvp resi (not much i know) i got hit by a warr for 70k mortal strike and a 120k execute.
    i hope blizzard fixes soon, reminds me of paladins at start of wotlk.
    i just hope blizzard doesn't do their usual heavy handed nerf and totally wreck the class.

    warriors do not do any more damage then any other class.warriors have great burst every 5 mins when we cd stack.other classes like locks,priests,mages and dks,have that burst on demand.i got to shot by a mage yesterday,go figure.i think warriors got buffed to be in-line with other classes that i brought up.so no warriors are no op'ed,but rather balanced with other classes.

    god i almost forgot to bring up Bm hunters lol.wt=hey with out question do more damage/burst then a warrior can dream about.there self healing is also very good.

    I would have paid to see a Rogue bitch that they needed to be nerfed as much as players of other classes expressed that they needed to be. I really don't think that any of them were crying that they were ruining the game.

    These threads are useless, I do not know why people post them or reply to them. All it is, is a bunch of kids who are mad that they are not on top anymore, masquerading as a crowd of people who pretend to give two flying fucks about game balance, when in reality, all they really want is to be a ret paladin with a little bit more burst so they can 1v1 every fucking retard in the game, or just regularly express that they want every other class in the game to be just weak enough so that they will never have to face losing a fight as a realistic possibility.
    The thing with rogues last expansion is that they too were overpowered from the start, but in a less obvious way. Until the last season, rogues' damage wasn't really broken. Just utility. If you lose to a team because they control you better and eventually set up a kill, it doesn't feel as cheap. Doesn't mean it was right, but it was probably more subtle. You might think that you were outplayed. Warriors as they currently stand just pick a target, tunnel and blow every cooldown and kill the thing. That feels cheap to everyone (except the majority of warriors apparently). Nobody thinks, "Man, that guy used every cooldown/immunity, stunned/silenced me indefinitely, and then shattered my only defense. What mad skill."

    Besides that, rogues didn't "ruin the game" as much as it's currently being ruined. Even at their peak (S11), there were a great deal of other viable classes. Like, R1 viable, if it weren't for the stagnated mmr pool ruining competition (Blizzard's fault that first month imbalances carry on to end-of-season rewards, not players'). Actually, I think every single class aside from warriors still had a viable comp. Turn the page to today, and good luck getting anywhere without a warrior or hunter on your team. Certainly there are a few caster comps, but they are a small minority. Warriors had a crap expansion for PvP. I get it. That doesn't mean you get to be the only PvP class now.

    I never defended rogues at any point during Cataclysm, or probably ever, buy why would it matter anyway? You think warriors' current state somehow only affects Cataclysm rogue players? I legitimately want competitive balance, and I feel like except for warriors, bm hunters, and possibly frost mages, balance may be as good as it's been. And maybe a few other things like priest healer buffs, but the point is most classes seem to be pretty close to each other. I don't care in the slightest what's been overpowered in the past. Sure, if the game could've been balanced completely from day one, that would be awesome, but it wasn't and that's in the past. What we can and should strive for is better balance today and in the future. You're probably right though--all anyone cares about is feeling good about themselves as they skillessly destroy people.

    I doubt that'll still be the case. Warriors scaled quickly because more damage gave them more damage and more rage, which of course turns into even more damage. Other classes for the most part just got more damage. Now warriors' rage generation only scales with haste, which is a terrible stat that you're not likely to see any self-respecting warrior wearing.

    I don't think they can. Warriors have good survivability, CC avoidance, team support, the strongest execute, incredible mobility, and a lot of hard killtarget CC. All S9 warriors had was broken damage, and after that was nerfed they were left with nothing. Warriors could do zero damage and play setup for a mage and still do well.

    Warriors do have above average sustained damage. It isn't off the charts, but it's probably still better than any other class. When you use every cooldown, your damage is insane. For all intents and purposes it's as bad as a hunter's stampede, except that it's a little easier to escape from a warrior. The tradeoff is that an immunity class can block out stampede easily, where a warrior will just break that immunity and kill you anyway.

    Mages are a touchy subject. I've always hated the deep freeze burst model, but Blizzard very clearly likes it. The thing is it's counterable. Not in 1v1, but in team play you can have every frost bomb dispelled as it lands. Or you can blanket silence the duration of eny deep on a teammate. I'm not a big fan of the design either, but it can be dealt with which is all that matters in competitive teamplay. Your options for surviving stampede or avatar & reck are more limited.

    I think it's the whole nature of their class anyway. Rogues are pretty easy to take out if you can actually engage them for longer than a couple of seconds. Good Rogues tend to keep you locked down and make you feel violated.

    Well you look like you're in the thread then, it's clearly discussing the hate expressed by players toward warriors as opposed to Blizzard hating a particular class (especially the comment that you seem upset about).

    *EDIT*

    Oh and to the guy below, dragonroar? Seriously?

    Your a warlock? Do you know that you haven't had a single bad season? Are you really that silly to complain about warriors, who have had quite a few bad seasons, when warlocks have had none?

    I look forward to dragonroaring your green warlock butt.

    The irony in your post is quite hilarious. If you don't see the point of these threads why did you post? If they are full kids why did you post the most childish reply in the thread? You obviously don't care for balance and have nothing constructive to say, so why post?

    Warriors need to be tuned, this is universally known by the player base. With the exception of the Warriors out there that truly think that they suddenly got good at the game.

    Sigh... Warriors. Warriors are easily snared, thats about it. A warrior paired with a class that can break snares off of other friendlies (a lot of classes can do that these days) means Warrior is about to smash your face in.

    But why are they smashing faces so hard to begin with? For one executes damage is way to over the top. As a Ret, my execute (Hammer of Wrath) crits for about 45-55k with every CD possible in use, including external ones such as a battleground zerker buff. Warriors 150k+ when all of their CD's are popped. And their executes hit for about as much as my HoW does when all my CD's are up and none of their's are.

    The problem is Warrior's sustained damage is REALLY GOOD, but they also have really good burst now thanks to Avatar. (Do PvP warriors even pick the other 2 talents?) They also got increased mobility thanks to War Banners/Safeguard. They gained all these benefits, but lost nothing in return. Lets add it up real quick:

    Warriors:

    Pros
    ------------
    -Increased Mobility (War Banners)
    -Increased Burst (Avatar)
    -Increased Sustained Damage (??)
    -Increased Execution Damage (WTFM8)
    -Almost immune to fears (Zerker Rage thing)
    -Self-Healing that requires no up keep by the Warriors (Second Wind)
    -Other methods of Self-Healing (Victory Rush, bloody bandage glyph)
    -Awesome survival cooldowns (Shield Wall, Mass Spell Reflect, Rallying Cry, etc.)
    -Plenty of CC to push out (AoE/Cone Stun, AoE fear, ranged silence/interrupt, Pummel, charge stuns/interrupts)

    Cons
    ----------
    -Easily(?) snared/rooted
    -???

    The problem is pretty obvious. You can disagree with me on the points above, but all remain true. I will admit there probably are some cons that I'm missing, but that list of pro's is why Warrior is now almost the most represented class in PvP. Just out of fun, I'll list my class that I play and list it's pro's and cons for comparison. (I will try my best to not be biased.)

    Ret Paladins:

    Pros
    ----------
    Practically immune to snares/roots (clemency/freedom/emancipation)
    High burst damage (Wings/Guardian)
    Good Self-Healing (WoG/Selfless Healer/Flash of Light)
    Decent mobility (thanks to first tier talents)
    Good utility (freedom,protection,sacrifice)
    "Second Chance" (Bubble/Lay on Hands)

    Cons
    ---------
    -Easily blanketed/interrupted/silenced (to prevent freedom, WoG, Flash of Light, emancipation, protection, etc. basically half of our abilities)
    -Easily purged/spell stolen/dispelled
    -Can be mass dispelled by Warriors/Priests to remove one of our 'second chances'
    -Weak CC (Repentence/BL can easily be broken, FoJ is the only decent CC we own)
    -WEAK sustained damage (virtually no threat during downtime on wings/guardian/trinket)
    -Weak execution style ability (See in above post about my HoW's)
    -No natural CC breaker other than bubble. (Example would be mages blink to get out of stuns, warriors zerker rage thing to get out of fear, etc.)
    -Lack of a 'good' gap closer (Running at your target at 35% increased movement speed doesn't even compare to instantly charging into your opponent, regardless if you get stunned in the middle of doing it or not)
    -Can be mana burned (you may laugh at this one, but being mana burned really does hurt us)

    The problem is that Warriors have this huge list of really good pros, but a very short list (Even if I added more it wouldn't be that long of a list) of cons.

    Oh and to the guy below, dragonroar? Seriously?
    Well... I clearly see what people are talking about here. Whinning about war, who whinned about mage, who whinned about rogue...
    I just wanted to put the finger on what I think is the main problem. with my bad anglish, my grain of salt and my French touche.
    What about balance between war, rogues and mage if other spec/classes are left in their usual shit?
    I see people put the blames on players, calling names etc... but players dont tweeks the game. Blizzard did. 1v1 exemple, pvp répercussion on pve... People just cant see further than their own nose! They a+b=win, think they are skilled and their classe is fine! And come here to see how many people agree with them.

    But go on!! Continue arguing with your pros and cons on your pointless "players hate" and whatever else. For sure it will be very constructive, and the end of this will be good!! Lol

    Im not defending wars here, we are slightly overpowered but mostly from cd stacking and a too short cd on shockwave. Still, in the order of overpowered classes, we are still only 3rd at best.

    Well first of all Warriors have been good almost every single season.
    And even if they had been complete useless shit for every single previous season that doesnt justify them being overpowered right now.

    Nothing would ever be balanced if you decided nerfs/buffs on who was op/weak the previous seasons.
    Thats just common sense and you Warriors have to stop being dumb and find better excuses to try and dodge the nerfbat.

    Warriors only good seasons were 6/7(That is if you weren't playing some piece of shit cleaveteam with a DK or Enh sham). Everytime outside of those was when warriors were stupidly overpowered to the point where some idiot who rerolled fotm in 3 days could get gladiator with no knowledge of the class other than knowing which DPS cooldowns to pop and who to train all while getting freedom from their pally-pocket.

    Cata S9 is one of those seasons as is S8(ArP heroes much?) and S3(which was moreso skillherald).

    Then you have the benched seasons like S5 where nobody but pallys and DKs could compete, unless you were a hard counter, and the last 2 seasons of Cata.

    I don't play anymore, but I'll just assume warrior damage is retarded high right now and then once the season is over Blizzard is just going shit on the class for PvP and shove it back into PvE as they did in Cata. I still can't believe people haven't caught on that Blizzard gives 0 shit about PvP.

    If you think that's bad, try going against the immortal juggernaut that is the Blood DK and their uncapped Vengeance. They're like the fucking Hulk, hitting them only makes them hit you harder and heal for more.

    Bads need to stop crying, and spend more time playing the game. So that I can make your butthurt bigger.

    I've never cared about game balance. Didn't care last season, or the season before and I played a Warrior. Why should I? Do your tears have magical properties that suddenly just get classes nerfed? Can I get some of that? Because them Hunters are really pissing me off with Double Deterrence.

    What's that, they dont? Well, shucks.

    ...so you're just sitting here, "contributing" to a thread by incessantly bitching at people and trying to make them feel bad for having fun, because you think your rating in arena or gladiator title makes your $15 worth more than someone else's $15.

    If you want to make a consolidated list of things that should be changed, which would obviously need to be posted by an experienced player of the Warrior class to prevent being a list of full retard class-breaking changes, that would be fine. But this? This is just a whine thread.

    Arena is obviously the only platform of PvP in the game.

    in open world pvp/bgs, Ret has been one of the strongest, sturdiest specs since the Wrath prepatch.

    No one hates Warriors, they hate imbalance. Same story different season. This happens all the time and people always forget the last time it happened when it is their class that is too strong.
    A ton of warriors have been giving amazing feedback since the beginning of beta on how to tune warriors to be BALANCED. See: all the freaking Consolidated lists of warrior issues in the beta forums. Hell, I think I gave some pretty solid ideas on how to nerf/tune warriors in pvp earlier in this thread.
