No this expansion is going to be terrible, they are going to add a thing called pvp power and things like that ruin the game for imperon : /

Is that where if your epeen is big enough you can straight up gank anyone you want if their arena rating is too low?

I am glad they actually added PvP power to the PvP weapons. It makes me feel a lot better about PvP in the expac now. However, I still feel quite punished as a melee. There is likely 0 doubt among casters that the PvP weapon is superior to the equivalent raid weapons; but for warriors where 100% of our damage abilities scale off weapon damage... I am not so sure. I mean about 2800 PvP power is a huge amount, but losing that much weapon damage is nothing to scoff at. I guess we will have to see.

This might be true for melee...but something tells me that the damage gained from the PvP power will outweigh the top end difference. Unless of course they Shadowmourn us again. I hope not because with PvP Power its my plan to never ever raid again.

Anyways, I'm excited for warriors in pandas, finally we get to be OP. After seeing Hoodr play, I am definitely gunna be using Dragon Roar over Shockwave.

Apparently hunters are doing really good in MoP...KFC is going to be one of the best comps.

It really depends on the rating -> percentage ratio for PvP power at 90; I don't know my warrior is still 85 on beta.

So comparing the two (fair comparison; considering right now T2 weapons are compared to heroic raid weapons), we see that there is a difference of 224 strength + socket as well as 818.3 weapon damage, or 19.367% more weapon damage. Let's just conservatively say that the heroic weapon (without accounting for socket) does 20% more damage than the PvP weapon. 2235 PvP power would have to give 20% more PvP damage to make it better than the raid equivalent.

Toss in a +600 strength gem (it's one of the sha-touched weapons; hence eligible for the legendary gem) and you're looking at an even bigger difference.

Eh, MM and Surv don't look too bad.. course numbers are still being messed with for everyone.
MM got super buffed and then took more nerfs than it actually needed but that happens. Same with Survival.
BM is looking top notch though with the new Kill Command and Blink Strike. Plus a dash of Readiness and Silencing Shot.. ;) Anyone want to run KFC?!

beast cleave will again be supreme! Can not wait to have no dead zone! no more worrying about rogues and kittys tearin my !@# up!
I hope they are able to give hunters the ability to take on priests and trees 1v1 and actualy put a dent in them. Atleast they will have to earn the win!
I hope they also address the extreme bordem it is to play survival pve and bm in both. I honestly think they need to make surv the top pvp spec and rework bm back into competitive raiding again.
Blizz you make all these realy cool pets hard as hell to get and the pay off is what. walking around stormwind with them....Realy! atleast give us a chance to show case them in raids where they could help the team instead of just being put on passive cause they bug fights!
