So, I have been waiting for all of these "grand" changes to the warrior talent tress.  So far I have only been impressed with Fury, I find arms to be a lawl tree and, while I am sure they mean well, have done little to fix its many problems.  Protection was on a good road, but then they felt threatened by removal of the Blessing of Salvation (by their own whims) they are too busy trying increase damage and threat, thatour rage mechanic will suffer the SAME ridiculous problems it faced in the first expansion.

         This is just a rant, I may try to fix it up and place it in a less trolled aspect of the forums.

ARMS

It was originally a pvp tree with some 2 hander emphasis.  I fear Blizzard has no idea what they want to have in this tree.  I still think rend is useless and nany attempt to give us a useful bleed buff effect in tier one has been rejected I believe 5 times.

For what the second tier is worth, I feel it is alright, I find it odd that it lacks any form of dps buff and it is for grinding and tanking.

 Tier 3 is fine.  I still think overpower and rend synergy needs work. 

One of the most sorry switches was the removal of stalwart defender (Rage gained from parry and blocks) and the addition in the arms try of Justified killing.  Come now, how many times do you parry in arenas or pvp, furthermore, in a PVE setting, you will be killed if you tank (unless you are Gares).  I find a tanking rage buff in arms to be ridiculous.

Tier 5 is fine.  Mace with armor reduction defeated its use in pvp.  I find that to be counter intuitive, but the change may be useful for the pvp gear wearers you fight.

 I find tier 6 to be a filler step.  Execute when the opponent is at full life is cute, but really, I have found a mortla strike or whirlwind to do almost as much damage for less rage.  Hamstring stuns are sort of cheap but no one every really compalined.  I always disliked imp intercept here.  They changed this with weapon mastery because they thought immune to diarm was overpowered.  But witht he current mentality of Blizzard, they want us in battle stance over berserker stance so why should this skill be there.

Tier 7-Imp slam is a treaty, fury never needed it.  The other talents are alright onyl because the point requirements are low.

Tier 8-Imp Mortal strike is actually useful.  I think 4% strength increase is weak, I am angry about the fact Paladins get 15% at tier 1.  I probably would never mention this aspect to Blizzard forums, because I would rather not see a Paladin nerf.

Tier 9-VEry useless buffs to damage ratio.  Blood fenzy was nerfed to prevent arms/fury hybrids.  Then they placed the nerf version two tiers higher; how does this make sense?  Also, trauma is equal (less than equal as Saedo pointed out to me) to Mangle.  If you have a feral druid tank, then this ability may override their ability to tank.  I find a tier 9 ability should be more than a tier 7 personally.

Edit-They swapped Trauma and Sudden death- I think sudden death is now worse off, but I still fear the trauma efffect on overriding the mangle effect.

Tier 10 and 11 are alright, it was a good direction to increase damagem, but still, a disarmed bladestormer is a useless 6 seconds.

Fury

I really have no beefs with fury.  Warriors will be competing with feral druids for spots because we have the SAME abilities which I find foolish.  If they nerf titan's grip in the slightest, people will opt not to use it though as simple as that, unless you are a bad warrior (not 100% true, a reduction in top end damage by a small smount would be tolerable, but the haste nerf would be inexcusiable).

 Protection

My concerns are for 5 mans primarily.  They returned shield specialization to 1 rage per block, but removed the rage increase from oparries and dodges or blocks (I forget which).  I never had a problem with aggro.  I like vigilance, but the newer talent-warbringer is as absurd as the imp intercept.  Tanking should be done in defensive stance, but why would we switch stances for 10-20 rage then switch back and OMG lose all the rage because of our stance dance rage loss.  It should be in Arms.  I feel that we are too rage starved except in 10-25 mans and that is because bossess will hit for 9-15k.

Now, maybe they think you will not be tanking as prot in five mans.  Thiscould be true, but I fear there will be a void where prot and dps specs will be unable to tank.  While I am certain dps specs can viably tank normal 5 mans.  I do not see them with the survivability (initially until high end gear) to tank heroics.  Ont he same note, I do not see prot tanks generating threat due to rage starvation.

Abilities

I find a few problems with the new buff stacking.  First, battle shout will be equal to imp might.  If this means improved blessing of might is greater than imp battle shout; essentially we have a worthless buff save for personal use.  I don't care for the idea that I have a 2 minute buff that requires constant rage use to maintain to be equal to a one time per fight buff which can be remana'd up.  I am sorry, 3 minutes if I take booming shout (equal to improved rend as the worse talents a warrior can spec into IMO).

Enraged regeneration is a useful idea.  It will help with solo grinding.  Many warriors on the forums want their instant attack back, but fail to see the advantage of a personal hot.  Granted, 3 minute cooldown is a bit high for how specific the requirements are to use it.

Weapon Throw-Excellent idea,  it allows warriors to pull again.  I always wanted something to fight a deadly throw rogue with.

Bloodbath-Honestly, I don't know what to say about this ability.  It basically is useless in raid due to the disruption of crowd control and the damage is minimal for arenas/pvp.  I guess boss fights and AOE farming, but I don't see how it will be more useful than other abilities available.

Disarm/shield breaker- If they can be used on bosses than they can be amazing.  The reduction to block/damage increase is more viable than the now useless blood frenzy.

I will add more later, but if anyone has an idea add it to this thread.  This may have been better placed in the warrior guides but MEH!
