I've been eagerly waiting to see if any warriors currently beta testing have real data and feedback. There's a lot of buzz going around with rage normalization and numbers are slowly starting to pop up. So far it would seem as though normal hits generate 20% less rage and crits 40% less. This may or may not matter which is why I'm hoping that some beta testers can clarify wether this indeed feels like a giant nerf or is unnoticeable because of the much higher DPS weapons available in TBC.

If this is indeed a nerf then it also means that the new Endless Rage won't even generate amounts of rage comparable to what warriors currently get in live.

Hopefully we can get some real data and have exerienced warriors give us the lowdown on how warriors *feel* in TBC compared to live. If we can still DPS hard in raids and obliterate people in group pvp then this change will indeed end up as trivial.

Honestly, dual wielding TF and Crul and Unbridled Wrath, I notice absolutely no difference between beta and 1.12.

Obviously, that's not data but just observation. I can still hit all my cooldowns on time and use Hamstring to burn rage.

There's a whole 43 page long thread for Q&A to beta testers.

Normalisation hasn't been properly implemented yet. There has been a flat rage gain nerf applied, to all weapons, according to a post on the US Beta forums, pre-wipe I think.

Reading through that now. Thanks for pointing it out.

This probably deserves its own thread though as it will greatly change warrior dps and ability cycling.

Or the Warrior spec thread, which already has discussion about it. Also note the locked thread on this same subject.

See you, auntie.
