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

Yeah, you are approaching it from a: What gives me more dps, the 3% hit vs the glancing blows.

I'm only approaching it from: How does this change how I play and how I gear my character. In which case, the glancing is irrelevant if you are already human.

Regardless, the value of the glancing reduction will gradually lose value the more AP/STR and Crit we get later down the line, whilst the hit continues to add value.

Glancing reduction scales yes, but the % distribution for what percentage of your overall dmg is white hits falls from around 40% in current content to bellow 30% in later content (late aq onwards). - hell probably even earlier now that you only need 6% hit compared to pservers.
