Hardly, considering ret still needs 10 second atleast to build up TV (down from 13,)
And warriors have a much better slam and faster cd mortal strike and that is reduced by haste.
ret gets 30% damage from talent warrior gets 25%
rets damage is part holy, warrior is all physical.
ret needs only 4.5 sec per tv now since holy power from judgment.
cs,judge,racial,tv,cs,stun,judge,tv,cs,(2 sec downtime)judge,tv,cs
cs does 100% weapon damage so thats a total 400% from cs
3 judments.
3 tvs at 185% thats 555% weapon damage for total 955% over aprox 14 sec with the targets cc'd and unable to cast for almost all of it.
lets take a look at arms warriors -im going to disregard auto attack damage assuming both targets have same tot.
slam now hits for 130% at 15 rage
charge ,mortal . aa rage +18 that puts you at around 48
slam slam slam aa rage +18 slam ( at this point if you are geared haste you may have another mortal if not u got some down time and can't damage.)
mortal, slam aa rage +18 slam (4 sec more down time until around next mortal)
mortal aa rage +18 slam slam
so in about 14 sec here we get 8 slams for a total 1.04k weapon damage. plus three mortal strikes for 540% weapon damage
warrior= 1.58k% weapon damage .
ret = 955% weapon damage ( 5% more melee damage from racial then warrior brings them to approx 1.0275k %
plus 3 judgments
looking now i see that warrior will probably have more damage than a pally over a span of time. especially if he gets a lucky ms crit. and i am fine with that if warriors got out damaged they would be almost totally worthless compared to a paladin with superior tot and stuns.
i would say pallys and warriors are balanced compared to each other and would probably work very well together as well . warriors will be the strongest melee bursters in warlords with their execute, mortal, aa+18, execute hitting for a total 440 + 180 +100(from auto attack) =720% weapon damage
this has been breakfast with bend,
<3 until next time
