I really enjoy the "a new plague" line of quests. I just wonder what the conclusion will be?
Surely it won't be:
Fatality!
Undead win!
When I fight people within the horde I have a lot harder time. Priests, which I'm used to ripping into pieces, own me, hunters actually do decently against me (And even sometimes win!), etc.
This shows an overall trend of Horde > Alliance from what I've seen. Obviously this won't include every member of the alliance there is. I got killed by a druid only 3 levels higher than me last night when I've killed druids 7 levels higher than me before. Overall, though, most alliance I run in to are pushovers. I can't say the same thing about the people from the horde that I fight.
This also probably won't be true on all servers and is limited to my own personal experiences.
I charged a druid last night and got instarooted by that obscenely powerful talent that roots anyone who attacks them and the druid ran off. I waited for the root to wear off and ran after her but didn't see her, then got hit from behind because she was a damned dirty shadowmelding Night Elf.
So I ran behind a tree to let my "in combat" status wear off so I could charge her again, charged and got instarooted again by that same obscenely powerful talent. The druid then backs up, roots me again with the no-cooldown 1.5 sec cast root then proceeds to pound me with her no cooldown instant-cast nuke (Anyone else see a problem with that?) until root is about to break then she roots me again with her no cooldown root and finishes me off with her 100 DPS instant cast no-cooldown nuke.
I have no idea how to even begin to fight against that.
Use it to chase down Runners.

Perhaps, when they do this, you should channel some silk bandages on yourself and use those nifty greater health potions. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this instant cast nuke isnt very mana efficient? If it does 100 damage per cast and you have, say, 1500 HP, a single 640 or whatever a heavy silk bandage is is going to be amazing. Heavy mageweave does 1140.
The instant cast still has the 1 second cooldown that all spells do, so it barely beats the heavy silk bandage, and loses to the heavy mageweave bandage.
Invest in your gun skill, find an engineer to make you a nice gun and some nice bullets.
Is there a warrior equivilance to the paladin blessing of freedom?

Being hit with the spell will interrupt the chanelling, as far as I know.
Making them channel really does fuck warriors :-/
Potions should still work, and if you can find some rings of nature resistance should reduce the damage by a good amount.
When I turn on my +30 resist aura, the damage from NPC spells goes from 180 or so to 120 or so, so perhaps just quaff a health potion and have a little resistance to outlast the mana they have.
Again, gun skill, at least you can do damage a bit.

The bandage's channeling will get screwed up by the chain-casting nukes. A gun isn't going to do enough damage to do anything for me when I've got 10 seconds to live. No, there's no warrior equivalent to anyone's abilities, much less something as useful as that.

I've got a gun already. It doesn't make a difference because I will always die first. 100% of the time. After that the druid will heal to full and I just wasted some ammo.
Possibly. I'd like to be able to kill them without spending money on something that doesn't give me any rewards, though.

The druid root thing is the druid "popular pvp tactic" right now. No real way to fight against it unless you are a caster type of some sort. (I had a druid try it on my shaman. Bastard got fried with lightning bolts.)

Buy those potions.
Kick the druids ass.
Potions make many PvP fights easier, ever see someone die when they have a "ignore next 2000 of this damage type" up.

9 times out of 10, the gun shot will be deflected, missed, dodged, whatever. When it hits, you can do about 40 damage.
You get a 9 times out of 10 if you havent trained you skill up.
You only do 40 damage if you got shitty bullets.
With just the stuff I have available to me at 244 engineering I can get a gun that does 35 DPS (not that I can use it, doh) so it hits for something like 70 or 105, I forget the speed.
Take into account the druids armor reduction of, lets call it 20%, and thats still 56 or 84 damage, and while that isnt amazing, it IS better than nothing, especially if you managed to get the druid quite low in your charge + damage damage damage bit.
If you attempt a Mortal Strike, you lose all your Rage.
You don't have enough time to pull off a Heroic Strike or Cleave or anything worthwhile.
You can Hamstring, but once the Druid shapeshifts, he breaks it.
Trust me on this one.
Dang. I remember when it was a 4 second stun.
Does shapeshifting remove all status effects from ya?

Unless rage is generated differently in PvP, I'll have 18 rage as soon as I charge, which I think is a fair chunk to do stuff with.
How many instant use damage/control abilities does a warrior get these days?
What do you mean by control abilities?
Casting Disruptions.
Movement Dehabilitation.
That kind of thing.
There's a couple of other utility moves, consisting of Sunder Armor (can be stacked 5 times for massive -AC), Disarm, Bloodrage (10 rage instantly, 10 over 10 seconds), Intimidating Shout (fear, kind of), Demoralizing Shout or Battle Shout (-attack and +attack respectively), and Thunderclap (lower enemy attack speed).
Still, hmm.
Do mocking blow force PCs to target you? IT doesnt generate rage it says it forces a target.
Also, charge is really bad now, change it back to 4 seconds :-/ The amount of damage I can do in the 4 seconds my hammer of justice does is sick, warriors only getting 1 is weak.
Shield wall looks nice, the syndacite in alterac chain cast it, and it has to be the single most annoying spell in the game for me so far.
Your extra attacks are circumstancial, and you dont have much to get around run away real fast cept hamstring.
Damn.
Level 60 extra attack only does weapon damage +50
What?
Level 60 overpower does weapon damage +35?
What?
I never really looked at warriors to closely(lately at least, last time I played one seriouslly was... phase 2, and we rocked) , but yeah, it looks gimpy.
