Anyone care to debate this? I was hoping it was rog's... Thats why I played one.


No class can beat a simliarly geared and buffed fury warrior. Which SUCKS. Even a mage, can hang with it, but in the end wont beat one.


Paladin dps is like 1...Shaman BURST dps is CRAZY! Sustain'd dps is shit lower. They can steady it at 300 dps, but above that it starts to take its toll. + No aggro reducing abilities that are as good as rogues/hunters/paladins, so they also take aggro. On top of that, less +weapon skill items = more glancing and missing of targets if they melee.

Its a good change, now I hope they make each class more of what the CLASS SHOULD BE, not a counter to the other one. Make paladins more "heal-wise" with more aura's and other cool shit, make shaman more DPS with less heal.

It depends on a lot of factors, sometimes yes it's possible for furry warriors to top damage meters. Generally furry warriors have an advantage on trash mobs where getting agro doesn't mean likely death (they have no inate abilities to drop hate), especiallly if the mobs can be hit with ae attacks. Against boss mobs they are limited by thier agro cap, again no inate way to reduce hate (except death) which if soul stoned can be used to allow them to "wipe" agro.

My personal feelings are that they do to much damage for being able to switch gear and or spec and suddenly become the best tanking class in the game. At the same time I hate to cry nerf to thier dps, as that only hurts raid dps, at least in the short term.

A Fury warrior with HW weapoons and mixed armor (raid zone and HW armor) sometimes outdamages me using Perditions and CHT depending on the circumstances. Generally On boss mobs I'll do more damage, on trash he tends to do higher damage (areas where he can cleave and doesn't worry about agro).
