Finally being allowed to be fury in a raid... and now my dps is gone as of 2.3... damnit and i was looking forward to the changes, i sware it seems like everytime i start to have fun with something on my warrior again i get nerfed... Ooo great i get a whirlwind buff, now i can break CC every 5 seconds in 5 mans just so i can try and make up for my dps loss because blizz thought it would be a good idea to move my talents around... Oh and sweeping strikes WOW GREAT ANOTHER CC BREAKING MOVE I WONT EVER USE... I'm just going to stop playing my warrior. I hate tanking because i have no non-raid/5 man utility, and now im going to hate DPS because i dont like running around like %*@#ing conan smashing my face on the MS button. Thx blizz your the best.

Q u o t e:
Also worth mentioning the -4% dodge chance reduction from Weapon Mastery.
You might as well come out and tell the truth to the playerbase about this change. It's because YOU want it for your already overpowered PvP Arms Warrior.

Q u o t e:
stop being a moron
Sorry, but when the lead PvP Designer in the game plays an MS Warrior, and despite MS Warriors already being very strong we see them getting buffed to hell at the cost of the classes PvE damage spec, you get a little suspicious.

Q u o t e:
in the PTR say 1% not 4%.
PTR isn't updated with the new version of weapon mastery yet. It's a straight 4% dodge reduction (in addition to the disarm duration reduction).

Lets not beat around the bush. We all know the movement of both death wish and imp intercept were because of the fact that nobody in the warrior community used the 41 point talent.
So, with that in mind, I, and probably the rest of the DW fury community dont think its very fair that we suffer such a negative effect from the repositioning of a talent in the hopes of changing a completly different spec. The negative effects of losing death wish far out weigh the gains from the whirlwind change and this new weapon mastery.
Perhaps the solution would be adding raid viability to sweeping strikes. Completly removing our most powerful raid buff and replacing it with something completly useless in most ever raid scenario hardley seems 'fair'.

Q u o t e:
And it never hit with any weapon before?
off hand also gets a damage penalty.
are you stupid?
You said it was 100-200 damage extra every time it's up. If your offhand deals only 100-200 damage, then you should stop complaining until you start using an actual weapon. A pillow does not count as a weapon.
Offhand hits are more like 400 damage minimum non-crit. That's almost 45 dps extra with 1/2 improved whirlwind. Not counting crits at all.

Q u o t e: What a bunch of whiny babies!
Evolve or leave.
Evolving has nothing to do with it. Switching DW and SS is truly a baffling move that was not needed or asked for. By anyone. Except for maybe raiding rogues.

Ooh.
Even MORE reason not to go 41 arms.
