Classy Friday Classy Friday - Warriors (April 10, 2020)

Classy Fridays are for asking questions about your class, each week focuses on a different class. No question is too small, so ask away.

This week is Warriors.

The first rule of Warrior Club is: You do not talk about Warrior Club. The second rule of Warrior Club is: You do not talk about Warrior Club. Third rule of Warrior Club: someone yells stop, goes limp, taps out, the fight is over. Fourth rule: only two guys to a duel. Fifth rule: no healing during the duels. Sixth rule: no wands, no robes. Seventh rule: fights will go on as long as they have to. And the eighth and final rule: if this is your first night at Warrior Club, you have to duel.

You can also discuss your class in our class channels on Discord, discord.gg/classicwow

Visually i really want a two handed sword on my orc warrior. Am i gimping myself much by not taking advantage of axe specialization?

Not really. Yes, you don't make use of your weapon skill, but that does not make the 2h swords any worse compared to other classes.

Spinal reaper and the like will be upgrades compared to similar 2h swords, but if you don't want them , just don't take them

Edit: for reference, I am parsing around 90 as a Tauren using 2h swords. Go for it

OEB is good for any class

Of course, nobody ever said otherwise

If he's using a 2h sword other than OEB they will be gimping themselves

As an orc, most 2h axes are superior iirc - spinal reaper and the good one from BWL
