WoW Cataclysm: Official changes for warriors

Today the developers at Blizzard revealed the upcoming changes, abilities and mastery skills for the class of the warrior. These changes will take place with the release of the World of Warcraft expansion Cataclysm. Next to a selfbuff which converts the warriors ressource rage into a plus in damage the class also gets back the "Heroic Leap" - a jump into a group of enemies which deals also damage. This ability was implemented and removed before in the WoW expansion Wrath of the Lich King.

On the website getbuffed.com you can find all informations regarding the abilities, mastery skills and talents of the warriors.

Why are Paladins always left for the last. Happens every expansion.

Well they always are tough to balances . They aint a true warrior nor a real priest . So blizzard is constantly struggling between given them some viability , wich in turn can make them better warrior or magic users than the specialists ... or keeping them neutered .

i'm betting they'll get shafted again

[tdrules]

Cos Blizzard hates them harhar.
Hunter update tomorrow omnom

shafted again? Paladins have been viable in any tree they chose since 3.0 and up. We are a great healer, a great tank and great melee DPS....

I have Played a paladin since launch and 3.0 finally got us right. heck, we deserve a nerf! lol

and t850, it's just polite to keep the best for last. ;)

They've been too powerful , then nerfed , they beefed , they nerfed hard again ... blizzard used to not make up its mind about it .

Anywya my knowledge is limited to the era between its launch and the Burning crusade .

mmm..I remember when we first got crusader strike..ah..good times..I had gotten WoTLK but never played it but Cataclysm perks my interest though I doubt I'll return. Ever since cutting off WoW for good I've gotten the chance to play so many other games and do things in my life that didnt require me to log on at 5pm and then proceed to wait for another 2hours for the other jackasses to login to raid. It was seriously like cutting the ball and chain off my ankle. Though I'll prob end up buying Cataclysm anyway since I've gotten the last 3 collector's editions signed by Blizz.
