thanks- yeah i am a guild commander in a pretty casual guild. Still the DK's and Pali's DPS and the warrior is suppose to tank. That is how it is unless of course you PUG like you said and can back it up with your gear. Getting from 80 and my hateful/triumph stuff to the 232 is the million dollar q and the hard one for warriors currently. blizz had done a damn good job of screwing up warrior mechanics and dps.thx.

Oh the reason you need the PVP gear is because resilience does make a difference now.

I'll tell you what Byron, i agree with you to a degree. I"m a 20-25hr a week player myself. I play 3-5 times a week about 2-4 hours at a time. I am in a guild but more as comic relief. I pug most things and i LOVE PVP, as a result i've spent HUNDREDS of hours in BG's, so when I tell you I know what you mean, trust me, i know what you mean.

My first suggestion would be to get into a casual guild.

If you find that's not an option PUG the hell out of some heroics for badges (honestly this is why I love the changes the made, because it suits me just fine)

As for DPS gear is huge I will admit and trust me when I say that I'm sure most warriors have alts they play to get rid of some of the rage, you should create a druid, i personally have a warlock. In the end i find i always come back to blackthought.

I'm willing to be you will come back too. GO heal something, hell roll a druid on Deathwing and you can come heal me in Arenas :)

As for BG's you MUST grind a hateful set at minimum. ABSOLUTE minimum. NOW you can also grind for deadly gear using badges.

When you do come back if PVP is still your thing then grind you some honor points and go get you some gear.

Keep reading and i know you'll be back to smacking the shyt out of rogues and hunters and mages in no time.

I know it doesn't directly apply but i have found the Prot spec the best BG spec for those not in all 232 gear and weps. devastate and shockwave work great and you have the extra 8k or so on armor. no problems with alot of guys. with Arms you are dead meat and bladestorm takes to long to c/d. Fury not so sure but i imagine the same squishyness unless you are very good and have 232 type stuff. I am tired of trying to tank and not being able to hold agro. I have rerolled a druid and will keep my 80 war for bg's and shards but damn if it isnt dishartening that for the most part we are percieved as one trick avg-poor Tanks in endgame unless you have a good guild rep/spot or as i mentioned the type of gear you have to pull off legit DPS so you can DPS and not be relugated to Tank... not alot of options for a casual 20-25hr a week gamer who does not want to tank but rather would like to kill like warriors are suppose to. Puffyd Grizz Hills. BTW thanks for all the help! I will keep reading.

Yea your almost guaranteed to wipe on the first boss, unless you have a Jesusadin to tank for you, also I love the black knight joke...although it did take me a minuet to get.

Guess who got the Axe from the blackknight? YUP M...

Guess who got the Axe from the blackknight?
YUP ME.

Time to start some more fury testing. I stayed up till like 3 in the morning after I got the axe and tested and tested and tested and I think I can say that as far as dps goes The Jawbone plus the...(edge of something from HCoC) in fury put up AROUND the same DPS as just the The Jawbone in Arms. So IF I wanted to I could go Fury now.

I also spent around 300g in respecing for PVP fury, PVE Fury, Mace spec, axe spec, Mace spec PVP, Axe Spec PVP... oh it’s all just so CONFUSING at this point. BUT I made some great headway into finding a decent build for each. Situation
ARMS PVP MACE
ARMS PVP AXE
ARMS PVE MACE
ARMS PVE AXE

FURY...the same

I didn’t get a chance to test the Concussion blow spec simply because I didn’t have the time, but I think I’ll be trying it out tonight for some fun. It’s the weekend right? Why the hell not.

Oh I also found out last night that I’d done one of the most BONE HEADED thigns I’d done in a long time.

After my last respec from FURY I went arms again and speced AXES...I have the Jawbone...which is not an axe FYI.

So for the last week I’ve been running without the additional ArP bonus from the Jawbone.

Oh and the New instance is REALLY fun i thought. The last boss is a Pain in the ass and I disliked the dismount death after the first fight (if only they gave you a 5 second window to adjust and for the tank to get agro).

I wiped twice on each boss but it’s ok the walkback is quick and if you need to repair it’s RIGHT outside:)

Great instance to farm.
