Defensive Stance now reduces damage by 15% (was 25%).

Second Wind will no longer regenerate health while the Warrior is stunned.

Warbringer now reduces the target's movement by 50% for 15 seconds (8 seconds in PvP) in addition to its other effects. The 3-second stun/knockdown is now in the diminishing returns category for stuns (same as Shockwave and Storm Bolt), and not the proc stun diminishing returns category.

What class will you Warriors be rerolling to next season hmm?

If you think I play warrior, you should check my characters first.

I'm sorry I cannot do that... I am following the example of Jacquel, the nicest guy on these forums.

You see how Jacquelol actually explained why what the guy was saying is wrong and did it in a nice way? That's why he's awesome.

SP offheals are being nerfed a slight bit so we might see less of them as well. WW Monks will definately be good if not great, same with DKs. That's mainly because DKs main weakness was others being too strong though.

A thing to keep in mind is that DKs are very vulnerable to silences and disarms, and seeing as Monks and Rogues both have plenty come 5.2, they might still have some trouble dealing with them.

Hunters aren't really receiving any major changes so it's pretty safe to say they will still be good. Rogues will be borderlining if not crossing OP.

Warriors are being overnerfed, but blizzard is too blind to see it. Sure, they're a complete pain in the ass atm, but what they're doing right now is too much. The nerfs are fine on their own, but the buffs to everything else is probably overkill. Tunneling the warrior will be #1 strat again come 5.2. (which is pretty boring gameplay)

ALL MY MONEY ON ELEMENTAL SHAMANS.

asfaar as SP goes, massdispell and shields are still a major part of SP.

You just cant rely on SP keeping entire team up when healer is sitting in CC. But I doubt the flash heal nerf is major enough to completly wipe shadow priest of the fotm market.

None of those changes address the fact that a warrior can do 600k damage against a 65% resil target in 5 seconds.

protip: it wasn't a warriors defensives that was winning them games.

If you think them being close to immortal if played well had nothing to do with them being so highly represented, idk what to say.

Also you seem to think warbringer DRing with shockwave is not an offensive nerf. 90% of a warrior's kills on healers happen in warbringer>shockwave on that healer. Damage is outhealable and nothing too insane. combined with insane mobility, survival and utility, that was too much. Two of those are being nerfed, arguably overnerfed.

In a lot of situations, yes, the defensives actually were winning games. Well-played warriors are nearly unkillable.
