| I am one that believes that Arms and Fury are fine. If your even CLOSE to rivaling rogues in DPS with either of these builds…Then move on to improving the protection tree. (I don’t PvP at all…so no comment there.)
I also believe that Prot tree should be an absolute necessity for tanking certain mobs. Off tanked mobs should be tankable thru switch hitting.
Emps? Need a prot warrior. Nef? Need a prot spec. etc etc etc.
Like has been said a million times…There needs to be a 31 point must have talent in the prot tree.
Aggro isn’t the answer. Neither is more damage. Aggro is perfectly fine as is. DPS is handled fine in the other 2 trees. That leaves some form of mitigation or HP’s.
I hear 10% being thrown around out there. I am more inclined to go 20%. At 10k base HP’s that’s a nice buff. And makes last stand pretty nice…along with a few temporary HP trinkets.
It also brings you into the “we need a prot warrior tanking here guys.” Which is what we are all looking for full prot spec.
If HP’s isn’t your thing…Then SOME sort of defense/AC boost for that 31st point would be nice.
Another 5% defense gain. AND a 1000 AC gain. 440 base defense? You can start looking for other stats other than defense.
Something that makes you say “Oh shit!” when you hit that last talent point in a tree. |
