Something that has haunted Blizzard for a long time.. their horrendous communication. On the official forums, there hasn't even been a been a blue post in the Warrior section for the better part of like 4 months.
Communication with the people who actually develop for the classes is the most important thing, and Blizzard doesn't even have it.
The class is in a pretty terrible position right now (my main.. which is why it bothers me more than any of the other issues atm). Protection is bad (easily outshined by a bear druid), Arms is absolutely brutal (probably the worst it's ever been), Fury is the only thing worth playing at the moment, and still it is pretty bad.
Face it, nobody wants an Arms warrior in their pvp group right now, they provide almost nothing positive to the team. If you actually want to get remotely competitive it's
nearly impossible due to the class design. Why take one when you can have a Frost DK do the same thing and better?
We have the second
lowestrepresentation in 2s, 3s, and RBGs (just slightly ahead of DH). According to arenamate.net
My problem is why does Blizzard have this fixed idea that THEIR vision of how a class should play out is the right one? I'm sick of that mindset. When the community is literally begging the developers to respond and even acknowledge the very very well known issues, they choose not to reply.
Blizzard just came out recently saying they were stepping up their communication game in a post on the forums, but I'll really believe it when I see it. It's likely warriors will be broken until at least 7.2.5 or later. A post regarding Fury issues in the 7.1 PTR as far as I know had 700+ replies in the PTR forums on the official forum, and had not a single Blue respond in that topic. While some other classes get fix after fix after fix Warriors are intentionally ignored?
