Blackened had this to say about Robocop:
Ironically enough, switching to another stance could yield things such as more crits, damage, or something even better than defense.

Post your current spec regardless, I want to see where you're putting all of those too-valueable points.

Reading what you've writen, the only way I would want to change is 2 points out of thunder clap and 2 into anger management. And maybe some from anticipation. It seems like 10+ defensive skill could be acheived by the right sheild or armor.

Gah! Now you've got me doubting myself! Well played... Well played indeed.

Drop those 2 in Improved Thunderclap. I can't even begin to start on how worthless 2 points spent there are.

As far as your Protection Tree, you can drop Shield Spec, as it's pretty much worthless with how shields are currently. 5% chance you'll block is horrible.

Improved Thunderclap? I don't think it's really that much worth it. You use TC for the slowdown, not the damage.

I crit often to keep Deep wounds on my target constnatly. Not to mentinon Imapale adds even more damage on critical strikes. High crits, a better constant stream of damage. And it really does fall to pieces without crits. I find my self hoping for them if im low on health. Which is good cause they come often.

And no where did I say "master genius straregy." Why is any persons opinion less valid than any other? Plus you asked me why I had it speced like I did. Now I've told you. Why I entertain your request is beyond me. The least you could treat me with is a small amount of dignity. But that may be asking a bit much from the WoW master! Who I should be honored to have this little chat with.

Average hit is about 200, average crit is about 300, heroic strike is about 400 and crit is about 600 and a fully charged crit on execute hits for about 3000. Not to mention rend and deep wounds that generate bout 65 damage every 2-3 sec? This is at level 60. I hit every 2.1 seconds.

On a side note, did you know moves like sweeping strikes (I think this applies to wrecklessness too) don't work in other stances? And that changing stances after use only cancels its effect. Its not really relevent, just felt like sharing. (prevents sweeping strikes and whirlwind from being used in conjunction)

This one time, at DrPaintThinner camp:
The Crits are what I based my strategy on. I always use axes. Including when I tank, My one hand wep is an ax. Right now If im wearing the right gear I can crit about 20%. If im not I can crit about 17.7% And like I said when I sheild tank, I use a sheild, and I stand around in mostly Defensive stance. I may use charge to run into battle, but i'll use any rage gained then switch over to hold the aggro until whatever it is is dead. When I tank its really just so someone else will generally hurt things for me. In higher instnaces where raids are common they don't want their main tank to do damage. They want him to stand there and take the hits so they don't. The reason I started to focus on some of the lower specs of the protection tree are because when someone wants a warrior, what they generally want is a tank. Not a damage spec warrior (unless noted otherwise. I aways ask. "Do you want me tanking or doing damage?" "So and so is already the tank we need an assistant"). Its not easy conforming to what others comand, but I guess it is the best way to get invited on raids to high instances a lot.

Well If you'd stop polymorphing him!

Okie-day, a few things here...

-You're contradicting yourself. In the first sentence, you tell us your warrior is based on crits. That's cool. But then you later go on to say that the warrior's damage doesn't matter, and that all people want out of him is a tank. So, why'd you base your warrior around crits and (gasp) damage if it doesn't matter? Why not go full protection so you can be the awesome tank that everyone wants on a raid?

-If you always use axes, you're stupid. What happens if you find a sword that's better than your axe? You just throw it away? Warriors don't master a weapon, as in only one kind of weapon. Warriors master all weapons. Swords, axes, hammers, maces, if it's better than what you currently have, USE IT!!

-When you shield tank, you use a shield? Thanks for clearing that up, man. Here I thought you just used your fists, and tried to be like an armoured Monk. Seriously, this is like saying that most of the US's imports come from other countries.

-Stances were never meant to be whored. Why would you go all crit-happy if you were just gonna stay in Defensive Stance, which would limit your ability to deal damage? Defensive stances does have its advantages, and is good for a maintank warrior, but even then, you'll want to switch to another stance occasionally. Use all of your abilities instead of focusing on a few, or you leave some very exploitable weak points way open.

-"In higher instnaces where raids are common they don't want their main tank to do damage." You, sir, are an idiot. OF COURSE they want their main tank dealing damage! They don't want him to sacrifice very much defense for it, but you should still try to deal as much damage as you can! Besides, correct me if I'm wrong here, but damage helps you hold aggro, and thus, TANK!! Ay yi yi... Just stop playing a warrior. The class really isn't for you if that's how you play it.

I really like warriors in all RPGs, and I HATE HATE HATE when people absolutely maul the class. Yes, the warrior is one tough bastard. No, that does not mean they're simply a living wall.

WoW is one of the few MMORPGs to actually get warriors RIGHT--Yes, they can last a damn long time in a melee, even longer if you invest wisely in Protection spec, but you're still gonna want to deal lots of damage and kill things quickly. After all, the more damage you deal to an enemy, the less damage the enemy deals to you and your group. Because, y'know, dead enemies deal no damage. Plus, warriors in WoW get plenty of skills, so they're not just an auto-attack bot (Can you say EQ?). The ability to simply switch stances on-the-fly to adapt to changing battlefield conditions not only makes a lot of sense, but it really helps in all situations. I really hate when people in WoW simply make a warrior to be the standard MMORPG tank bot, because "omfg its a warrior ur spost 2 tank cuz tahts how it was in EQ". Well, I've got news for ya, Timmy... THIS AIN'T EQ!!

DrPaint, you have a very odd strategy. On the one hand, you're going for large damage by way of lots of crits. This is a good warrior strategy, although you really should focus more on your sustained damage instead of risking it on crits. Even with a one-in-five chance to crit. However, then you turn around and go all tankly, taking stuff from Protection spec. Why? If you want damage, then focus your entire talent tree on it! If you want sheer toughness, I'd suggest playing a Paladin instead. They won't do as much damage, but they'll last a LOT longer in combat. You're either damage-based or defense-based... Pick one. If you do half-and-half, the two halves cancel each other out, and you're left with a crap warrior who can neither tank nor deal damage.

Not a Warrior, but I am reminded of my first attempt at making the most awesome assassin evar!11!!1!. I had such high agi but not enough dex (in RO, Agi = dodge and Dex = chance to hit) that, sure, the baddy never landed a hit on me....but I almost never landed a hit on him, either. Those battles would last upwards from an hour. After a while, I got so sick of it, I deleted the character and started brand new. You don't really have the same problem in WoW as your dodge and chance to hit are based off the same attribute, but it can still be a problem, considering how you build your talent tree.

Not that I know anything about talent trees...I fill mine up based on whims (please don't kill me! Maybe I'm not the most effective rogue on the block, but I have fun, and that's what counts, right.

---

This sounds like you've never really played a warrior. Or at least had to deal with the fact that everyone wants you to specialize a certain way. So I'll map it out for you.

People don't want damage warriors as tanks (they are cool if the main tank can keep it all together and they are just tagging along but a mage will ALWAYS do more damage). I would respec right now to a defensive/arms warrior, if I thought all I would ever do anymore was tank. I don't though. I mostly solo. I pretty much soloed myself to 60. The point I was making is that I can effectivly tank better than a person who went fury/arms. Arms/fury is ok for tanking as long as they bought all the skills for defensive stnace as well.

Crits are LESS important when I tank (this seemed to be the part that you kept hanging up on)(also since I speced right when using one handed axes my crits go from 17.7% (2h ax) to 17.3% not much of a difference). My job is to connect with hits, get rage, use that rage effectivly to hold multiple targets. When I solo who am I tanking for? Me? I don't need half the skills in defensive stance that aren't already in battle stance. Its slow and it takes forever to kill anything.

Battle stance is a good all around stance. It doesn't have the specialization of the other two stances but it provides enough flexibility.

I love that "What happens if you find a sword that's better than your axe? You just throw it away?" And? What would happen? I would use it. If it was really good I'd respec it. You know why I don't worry about that? Because it never happens! I'm currently wearing the Best type of uncommon ax. If I found a blue sword that had a great dps and still pretty fast I might respec. But if its not that big of an improvement its not worth the gold to ugrade the weapon, respec my skills, and repurchse other skills. Right now I'm tickled pink with my razor ax of power. If a twig of the world tree came a long I may use it for a while. But so what?

And your logic of mastering all the wepons is the exact opposite of what everyone else has told me (in this thread). They keep saying "drop your masteries, learn tactical mastery and switch stances often"

And that sujestion is silly. Why should I spend 5 points on something I use rarely use for something I use constantly. My other stances are useless to me. They have no use when I fight (except whirlwind, thats just a nice thing to have for mowing down lower levels). Beacuse you make use of it doesn't mean its right for me. Which I now realize is why I SHOULD keep my mouth shut. Because everyone should have their own way of fighting. If everyone was the same damn warrior spec it would be boring and predictable (this was the convincing point for me to stop posting on this particular topic).

And anger management is not worth having (for me at least). The last hit I almost always make is an execution. There is no rage left to save, or switch to another stance with. Thats fine though! There are very few situations where I would say OH FUCK! I NEED TO USE MY _____ stance.

And its not the damage that holds agro, its the moves. Sunder armor, taunt, challenging shout, rend, and mocking blow all hold agro the best. Three of those don't even do damage. One of them only does slight damage, and the last one does damage over time.

I had a long passage about how specialization was better than generalization but I really don't care to influence any of you so I'll leave it out.

My roomate suggested to me that I may want to consider what you are all saying when battle grounds comes out and I start fighting more pvp. And I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

To put this all in perspective I have a story from when I was level 52. I pretty much had a one tracked mind. I infact was going to spec as you sujested for my last few skills. Someone messeged me asking me if I was a warrior and if I wanted to do brd. I said "Sure! I'm a warrior!." I got there and they said, "hey where is your sheild?" To which I replied, "Sheild? I'm a damage warrior." He said "Oh... well I wanted a tank. I guess you can try though." We got to the first rather large mob. They over ran me, killed the shaman, then the priest, then the warlock, then me, and the rogue stealthed away. There was a short silence followed by "DAMN THAT SUCKED!! Were you even in defensive stance??" I said "Yah! I was holding the best I could! But like I said im a damage warrior." He waited a moment and said "Well next time I guess I should ask for a tank. I know a level 60 sheild spec we can invite!" I left the group and passed the level sixty as I made my way to the wyrven master.

This made it clear in my mind that "One size does not fit all" and a warrior with no sheild and no effective way to use it will most likely fail.

This is how I play now. When I solo I use 2h axes, criting often for high damage. And when I tank for groups or raids I use defensive and a little bit of battle.

I also just looked at your WoW Ranking profile. You're pretty clueless in how to gear your Warrior, as well. But that's fine - if you're enjoying your Warrior... Well. Good for you.

At your level this works but I'd try really try to kick that habit and get into the habit of using feint to keep the mob on the tank. At around 40 you really fall behind other classes in the migitation department, at 60 I can't tank a mob for any amount of time even in easier dungeons, in places like Scholomance and BRD I need chain heals to survive against even xp mobs(I'm a dagger rogue though, combat builds have it somewhat better).

I have my kick bound to my 'e'-key, it's very handy to hit as soon as you see something start and cast, you can get crazy xp from caster mobs as a backstab rogue using kick and gouge.
