Quote:Oh, man. For things like this, my recent lurking forums of choice have been the official warrior forums. So much bitching, by so many people. And all of these joke talent trees, and suggested changes. There was a guy who actually suggested that Fury Warriors should basically get Bestial Wrath. Including the complete immunity to all CC effects, every two minutes--like a friggin' I Win button. And there were like five straight pages of people applauding him for seeing how warriors should be, and saying that he should be hired by Blizzard, and that it wouldn't be overpowered at all.I do admit a Beastial Wrath talent for warriors would be overpowered, but as someone who solo-pvps a lot in bgs/world pvp/arenas I can agree with the warrior class needing help. Until you spend a lot of time being chain CC'd through a fight -- sometimes not even intentionally (i.e. aoe fear/frost nova/shadow fury directed at someone else) -- you probably can't empathize with the frustration that is playing the warrior class.
I read the official warrior forums and I've scanned the other class forums and not noticed the same amount of whining, so I think there is a real issue.
Blizzard's CMs' answers to this has been
1) we don't balance around 1v1
2) we balance warriors around groups (i.e. "get a pocket healer")
3) we think warriors are/have been overpowered so warriors didn't get buffs
1 & 2 are downright scary. 3 *had* some merit -- it doesn't any longer.
And the other obvious answer is "wait till 70". We'll see.
