19 warrior haste

[Yapah]

I was reading the 5.2 patch notes when I came across this.

• The benefit of Haste from items and consumables has been increased by 100% for all Warriors.

Would this mean haste would be a viable stat for warriors? Lifeblood would of course be A LOT better for warriors but besides that would 10 haste to gloves, 20 haste to 2h ect be worth using with haste giving double stats?
1 haste = 0.472% at 19 for any class, but it would be 0.944% for warriors. To put this into perspective, using 6 haste trinkets, 20 haste weapon, 10 haste gloves, and loom cloak (2 haste) you could effectively get 41.536% haste and 93.456% once you pop lifeblood. This would greatly increase rage regeneration, so would it be viable?

rage regeneration i laughed hard

rage generation atm so haste don't affect it.

but 40 % basic haste on melee for sure it will be cool for warriors.

Faster swings = faster rage.

Damn you are simple...

For warrior, white hits = rage. More white hits = more rage. How can you not understand?

 

[Ridwane]

I will look into making a 15/16 arms warrior with haste build for when the patch hits, could be fun to check out

Hopefully level scaling doesn't scale your haste.

So in other words, you're going to play a warrior that has to dump rage in to heroic strike.

idk, as I said; I was gonna look into it

You lose Slam by not being level 18.

Also I'm not entirely sure if this will affect lifeblood as well, since it says the effect of haste is doubled when gained from gear or consumables.

In more recent patch notes, they have lowered the 100% bonus to a 50% bonus.

My main is a 90 warrior and i can vouch that faster swings do not give more rage, even in Battle stance. Theres a funky inner cd to it, kinda hard to explain. I thought the same thing as well but in truth, if i swung every .1 seconds i still dont get any range until every 1 second passed. Anyways, rage is still gained on swings every couple seconds. i could hit you like 9 times ina second with white hits but its not until the accual second comes until i can see my ragebar go up. could just be a bug who knows?

 

[Mocha]

This could potentially put night reaver back up there with +20 haste since haste affects procs.

i think people are forgetting... white hits are the majority of alot of melee classes. so screw the Rage regen, warriors are simply going to be doing so much more constant damage that i think fury may become viable again.

< does not play a warrior at 19

50% haste will not help a spec that crits for 50 (60 if you're lucky) with its main attack.
