Arms Warrior: Sword & Shield usage

[Zorch]

Not that you asked, but the Chops Pick for alliance warrior race is actually Dark Iron. The racial clearing dots and (some) snares/roots giving you strength is incredibly strong not just as a defensive but as an offensive swing. You clear a row of dots to stay alive but then get a mini crusader proc worth of strength to turn around and smash a MS into someone? too good.

Also, look cool as hell. Which is 97% of the reason to play anything.

Totally agree — I would roll Dark Iron Dwarf if I wasn’t a bum and had unlocked the Allied Races... they look freakin’ badass and are by far the coolest-looking Alliance race.

It's *almost* like the old stance-dance days.

i wish they brought it back. 20% reduction WITH thunderclap and shield was nice vs those sub rogues in MoP

Why’d they do away with the glad-prot concept(draenor edition)anyways?

Oh, wow — I’d totally forgotten about Gladiator Warriors, haha. I always thought it would be badass if there was a way Warriors could dual-wield shields.
