I'm interested in trying to gear up till bis one of these 2. Does anyone have any suggestions which of them is better in what aspects?
By that i mean world pvp, bgs, 2v2/3v3, and for the last pve. Who has the better options and more versatile ones?
Thanks
Warrior is actually quite weak in most forms of PvP without a proper supporting class to make up for their weaknesses. Sure pair him with a dispelling healer and you can destroy almost anything, but without this support most other classes can abuse a warrior's lack of control.
DK is the most versatile and all around strongest class on WoTLK. It's like several classes rolled into one.
* Sustains like a hybrid healer even in unholy spec
* Can interrupt a single school of magic like a warrior
* AMS/AMZ are like superior versions of spell reflect
* Has a 5 second FLAT silence like a Shadow Priest, which is usually plenty of time to burst of target during Gargoyle.
* Has a spammable 90% slow. Laugh at warriors/rogues as you kite them while they are covered in dots.
* Has a hard CC 2 second stun from pet that can be used while DK is CC'd
* Deathgrip into Chains is really powerful to reposition enemies
Basically DK beats warrior in everything EXCEPT rated arena/premade BGs where the warrior will have support.
So hi, im caddy, played wow on molten before moltdown as a warrior and achived high ratings on cata (awful exp for war and wotlk) 2.8k on AT 2s 2.6k 3s
I also playes retail for 8y. And achived 2.4k rating in mop amd wotlk in 3s and 2.5 in 2s. 2.1k on cata eventho i had gurth. So all i want to say without beeing cocky is, that i know my beloves class-the war.
PS: dude, go war ooooonly if u got a friend that can play heal (like mine) and then... u are trully a Spartan. Dk is like monk in MOP dueling king/ 2v2 lord (warrior's above with the heal)
I assume by reading ur comm that u are playing a dk @TheArtfulDoder.
Well Warriors are verry verry weak, in weak hands. That's all i want to say. I don't disargue your DK thingy there but pls don't give them peeps wrong Informations
-so let me start by saying that warrior is the all-around class. First of all warriors are specialized into arenas(2s/3s) not bgs since they lack in survability. Well imagine warrior as a wrecking bomb made of glass. U destroy everything, but also u can get destroyed aswell-quickly. So since we lack in survability, pair us with a heal and u'll get rektstormed as @TheArtful said.
Warriors have:
-insane pressure output agains healers
- a intrerrupt that prevents spellcasting from that school
-habe the dmg, since they are specialized in killing healers
-2 charges + 100% slow from hamstring and howl
- 1 fear
-meele dmg reduction
-disarm
- defensives agains both, meele and casters
- imediate burst, can go ham from the begining don't have to stack something (like gargo). This is in some situations helpful
-have ****ing rage man RAGE
-bleeds (moar pressure boy)
-do i have to say that u spin like a helicopter for 6 seconds?
Warriors lack in:
-Survability, they really need a heal since i explained to you my theorie about warriors (The fragile wrecking bomb)
-movement, they can get **** kited if played wrong
-thats it i might have forgotten some things, but this means they werem't important
So all i can say, do the maths and choose wisely.
But do me a favor, first learn warrior and, than buy a shadowmournr
