Yes. On live you have 2.3 k armor.

In WOD you'll have about 50-80 or 200 ish with a shield. Go look on WOD wowhead how your gear scales.

Thats lvl 15-20 mail chest armor in WOD. Highest armor value is 16. Good luck getting 2300 armor

Your lucky fishing hat has 84 armor on live.....6 armor in WOD. Is this a nerf? No it's not. It will provide roughly the same mitigation. Which is exaclty why +16 armor kits become a huge deal. And why -61 armor becomes legandary.

Wow thanks! I wasn't aware that the squish affects armor too!
Now I understand why the numbers matter.
 
The Orc racial is also much better now would be the equivalent of popping 60 str in mop
 
I wonder how much armor will affect equivilant health. It seems like the +15 health enchants will be far, far inferior.

lol no swipe or rejuvenation for guardian.. why even make a tanking spec with no aoe.
wasnt the aggro issue the main reason they made guardian spec?

Idd, sucks dick... Guardian is such a weak tank spec :/ You don't have bear bleeds so your damage is shit, you don't have AoE so need to really concentrate to keep aggro in dungeons. Even boomkin is better for tanking dungeons than guardian atm (for 20-24) :p

They only made guardian a spec because off tanks did too much damage in cat form at max level. Guardian is just one of those specs who gets all the good things past 20.

Oh wait, it seems swipe was scrapped and they just merged it into thrash spam.

lvl req for it still way too stupid. all tanks should get 2 attacks + aoe at 15.

That's why many newcomers quit the game early. Some classes are really gimped at lowers level for no particular reason.

How are warriors looking in WoD? Do you think fury will be taking over again?

Arms and Prot will be better for WoD. Fury will still depend alot on 2H DW and raging blows, so no go for F2P. Even with dual wield Executes. Atleast people will parry and dodge you less in wod due to passive 3% expertise.
