World of Warcraft®

So today i find this on mmo-Champion
Warrior
Reduced damage of Bloodthirst, Colossus Smash and Raging Blow by 10%.
Yes this is a nerf in a sea of buffs, but the Bloodsurge and Arms Deep Wounds changes ended up being too much of a buff.
is he trolling? sea of buffs....lol

They already reverted those.

Was gonna say...

Wait, so the BT, CS, RB nerf didn't go through? TYBG

Nope.

At least not for now.

They plan on nerfing execute later.

No, they're nerfing our meta gem instead of that. The meta gem seems like more of the issue than Execute.

Ugh. Beaten by cutie panda by 20 seconds.

They said they would prefer to nerf it over execute, but nothing is certain yet. IMO SMF could use a change on execute.

Pretty sure by 'Sea of buffs' he meant the buffs the other classes are getting in the same build.

And they did in fact nerf execute damage but reduced the cd.

No, they didn't (or at least they didn't say anything about it after the "nerf the meta instead" post). And it doesn't have a cd.

I really question whether Blizz even knows what they're doing at this point, I'm starting to think some guy is just throwing darts at a board full of warrior abilities while blindfolded in order to decide what to nerf next.

Actually Warriors for the most part have seen several buffs and changes this PTR. Here's a list of all the buffs that are still in play, despite the nerf being reverted.

All Warriors benefiting from 50% More haste from passive stats and consumables.

Base Damage increase on Shield Slam (Scaling nerfed a bit)

Base Damage increase on Revenge (Scaling nerfed a bit)

Bloodsurge now causes wildstrike to have a rage cost of 0.

Deep Wounds now deals 100% More damage for Arms.

Sudden Death now procs off of Strikes of Opportunity

Slam damage increased by 30%

Taste for Blood Reworked for Arms

Bladestorm now makes the warrior immune to disarm

Stormbolt now deals 125% Weapon Damage (Up from 100%)

Enraged Regeneration now Costs 30 rage, down from 60.

Impending Victory will now heal the Warrior for 15% of maximum health when they have not slain an enemy (was 10%)

Whirlwind now costs 20 rage (was 30) for Arms Warriors. The cost is unchanged for Fury Warriors.

The only nerfs we're sustaining are ones to Shockwave's Duration if you miss multiple targets, Defensive Stance being nerfed by 10% for Arms and Fury, and gaining less rage on Second Wind when stunned.

If that's not a sea of buffs, I don't know what is.

TFB remake is not a buff is a nerf we lost the damage from Heroic Strike and the slow out of global and making the glyph useless, besides the 10 cost on overpower (gamebreaking) the new TFB is complet nerf on warriors that for me hited realy hard...the slam buff it is just to full the gap of dps left from HS. Plus the shockwave nerf hard one too.
So in 5.2 we lost a realy good glyph a slow out of global cd and not even gonna say about survival from defensive stance and second winds nerfs...the rage on overpower so we can never use anything besides overpower + slam + mortal Strike and colossus.
All this skill will be hard to used or never used on 5.2 ( PvP Wise Arms POV) - Cleave, Heroic Strike, Shattering Throw, Thunder Clap, Sweeping Strikes, Thunder Clap.
So we got destroyed in all warriors good aspects and received small buffs the only good one being deep wounds damage.

Please don't nerf execute. 5 mil execute crits are intoxicating. And now with gear scaling I stay at the # 1 spot even until execute when I soar miles above # 2

Really, people?

He's referring to other class getting damage buffs while warriors were the only class to get a damage nerf.

Warrior
- We are going to lower Recklessness to 3 min cooldown, 30% crit. We will have to adjust the Glyph of Recklessness and T14 4pc (and probably other mechanics I forgot) to keep them at the same relative power.

Followed by:

- Execute damage -25%.

EDIT: Added the actual chances above. As always, you don't need to understand ANY of that to benefit from the trinkets.
