WoW why Paladins are greater than Warriors

UPDATE: 4.0.1 patch

1. If you commented on this video and mentioned the phrase "PvP" or "Arena". You failed, and failed badly.

This video has nothing to do with PvP, as most of the game itself had little to do with it at all. The arena junkies who represent roughly 1-2% of the WoW population can pucker up and plant their lips firmly on my hindquarters after I put up with all their mindless comments. I only mention PvP at the end because you can level through BGs, and that is a world of difference from arena play.

2. If you commented on this video and mentioned mainly "Dps" or something to the effect of damage output or "Recount", then you too failed, and failed badly.

This video was not about DPS. My commentary turned out wrong ONLY when you consider the 'new' ICC Warrior gear with up to 100% Armor Penetration (ArP), a stat which was completely removed from the game in patch 4.0.1. Never before was ArP stacked on plate, and never will it be again. Even with up to ToGC gear, Warriors still fell short on dps.

3. If you commented on this video mentioning my gear, you failed very badly.

My gear had nothing to do with the abilities, but if you check the date of the video, my gear was actually quite good at the time. This video went up the day that Crimson Hall opened, and what I was wearing could carry me through Saurfang on 10 man.
____________________________________

THE PURPOSE OF THIS VIDEO was comparing some key differences between Warriors and Paladins, and I came to a pretty obvious conclusion to those who paid attention.....

It came down to two things.....sheer survivability, and raid usefulness. Paladins had it, Warriors didn't.

Paladins came with many healing buttons to save yourself or another party member(!), as well as dispels, and buffs that every class could use. Many of these abilities simply made the game easier to play, and made Paladins more desirable to group with.

Warriors could barely keep themselves alive, and had virtually no raid helping or raid saving utilities.
MS was never a good argument, since Rogues and Hunters also had healing reduction abilities for the *few* fights in the whole game that used it. Nor were lower level mana-draining fights, since we now have 2 other classes that can tank without mana.

Most people forget that there were 79 levels to go through to get to 80, and this meant endless questing, dungeons, and then once you reached 80, countless heroics before you were ready for ICC.
Being able to simply heal / save yourself and keep going made a world of difference.

Warriors shed enough tears over the years to fill the buckets of every other class. It's refereshing to see our survivability greatly ramped up for Cataclysm.
____________________________________

I didn't have enough time to mention the following abilities that prior to 4.0.1 were very similar and tipped favorably towards the Paladins...

Ardent Defender - Last Stand
HoJ / Repentance - Charge / Intercept
Judgements of the Wise - Nothing
Hand of Freedom - Nothing
Divine Plea / JoW - Bloodsurge / Berserker Rage
Divine Intervention - Nothing
Hammer of the Righteous - Revenge / Cleave

Commenting is still closed since 4.0.1, children.

But I still laugh at the MASSIVE FAILURES that continue to post without reading the description first, and realizing they have been soundly rebutted multiple times...

LoL also at the few retards who post about their level 85 Cata toons and game mechanics via 4.0.3 on a video about life at level 80 patch 3.3 WotLK.

L2Read.

Commenting is closed as of patch 4.0.1 for obvious reasons (the entire game changed). See Above description.

Fury Warriors out dps Ret Paladins in PvE, and I know you don't like hearing about PvP but seriously, that's half the game:

Ret and even Protret pallies are rare to find above 2800 in arenas, whereas Arms warriors are ABUNDANT in multiple team combinations! Think about all aspects of the game before you post something like this, thanks buddy! :)

And you had to hear about arenas again, yay!

Every class has it's strengths and weaknesses, and every class has it's pvp class counter you chode

@XDude3

Pvp isn't half the game, at best it's 5% of the game. Blue posters have mentioned a few times the amount of people who even engage in pvp at least once a week, the number of people who do arenas, and the number of people who seriously do arenas.

And this isn't about dps either.

So scratch arenas and the pititfully small percentage of people that thrive on them, and scratch the recount charts too, halfwit. You've missed the point of this video entirely, join the club.

all dislikers are gayadins

@TheOcarinaofTime

Actually my gear was very good at the date this video was made....you FAILED to notice that.

I know Warriors much better than you do, for if you did, you would have attempted to rebut something....FAILED

What makes Paladins better than Warriors was pointed out in the video as buffs, dispels, auras, serious heals, and total invincibility as well as being able to place these abilities on another player...FAILED

@atheismwins

Too bad you, like the rest of the emaciated dim bulbs who often comment here have completely missed the point of the video. Great job, join the club.

@CheesyPoofsMan001

If you really believe this is pointless QQing you need to get with Doc and Marty, jump in the Delorean, and beat the snot out of yourself at 5yrs old for not learning how to pay attention. You've missed the point entirely, join the club, screwball.

@xungoni

A Warrior far outperforming a Ret Pally is only as of the ICC patch allowing Warriors only to reach 100% ArP. Something NEVER before attainable in any tier, and now that 4.0.1 has been released, it's gone forever, we will see where Warriors land beyond here.

[RawChristianSuperman]

@xungoni

50% of the entire game is about pvp?

50?

Reduce that by 45 and even that's being generous. The game has very little to do with it at all. Blue posters on the WoW forums have answered this a few times, exactly how many people even engage in pvp at all.

@Inahewoof

Yo, small fry, you either step up to the plate or step off. Your messages keep littering up this video with nothing to say in them, junior.

Nice escape attempt though. Hop along, my lil dolt.
