WoW class balance: Warriors

• ---Currently
  warriors are slightly too mobile, allowing for them to catch up to
  someone every 15 seconds(for 3 seconds, that target is stunned). In
  combination with the cooldown talent change for improved intercept, this
  will allow the weakness of range to actually show itself in battles,
  where currently it does not exist.

• ---Currently,
  the 4 second stun on these weapons puts a huge part of the warrior's
  game in the hands of the Random Number Generator (RNG). This is not
  fun waiting for a proc, but when it does go off the target has only
  doom awaiting him unless his trinket is unused. Together with mace
  specialization and intercept, this proc allows for warriors to stun
  lock players almost better then rogues. Decreasing maximum health is a
  unique mechanic and synergies well with Mortal Strike when trying to
  burn down a high priority target.

• ---Currently,
  mace stun effect can proc on secondary targets off abilities such as
  Cleave or Whirlwind, and I feel this needs changed to just the primary
  target. The other specializations do not allow for secondary targeted
  effects, so Mace Specialization should not differ.

-Hamstring now has a 3 second cooldown.

• ---Hamstring
  a powerful snare, as it not only slows movement speed considerably, but
  can be used to trigger effects such as weapon procs, windfury, and
  specializations when spammed. Adding a cooldown to this will not only solve these issues, but also allow the affected
  player to escape if they can break the snare fast enough, yet again
  exposing the weakness of the warrior (which presently is missing).

• ---This change has its roots deeply planted in a PvE setting, as if this ability is on global cooldown
  when a boss fears, someone else in the raid will probably die in a
  single hit. This can spell doom for any normally successful raid. On
  the PvP side of the coin, this would impact the ebb and flow of both
  arena and battlegrounds minimally. Warriors who are feared usually
  break it within 1 second, and then immediately intercept back to the
  target. If anything, this might be a nerf to fast warriors, as they
  will break fear too quickly and not be far enough to intercept, but out
  of melee range and turned in the wrong direction!

• ---Gonna remove this, as I was convinced otherwise.  Apologizies. This
  is a change I have been wanting to do for a while, and recently got
  the... err.. enough support to formally suggest it. This is not just
  pummel alone. All interrupt effects, be them talents or trained,
  should be off the global. They are essential timed abilities and if
  you are on GCD , you can miss an interrupt because of it even if you are
  skilled enough to catch it normally. With more sub 1.5 second casts
  being put in the game, I feel this change is worthwhile.

• ---I
  feel this is a necessary change, as currently casters and healers can
  be silenced and unable to act, but warriors cannot be given the
  equivalent treatment with the talent as it is. After the change, the
  silence and disarm mechanics will act in the same manner. Disarm
  chains, equip bonuses, or enchants will all be retrofitted to be 40%
  less time disarmed.

• ---I
  did not like the suggestion I had originally for the Sword Spec. For
  now I think all of the specs should remain as they are until a better
  suggestion comes up. I overall dislike the Specializations, so I will
  be talking to people about this one more.

• ---Currently warriors are slightly too
  mobile, allowing for them to catch up to someone every 15 seconds(for 3
  seconds, that target is stunned). In combination with the set bonus change, this will allow the weakness of
  range to actually show itself in battles, where currently it does not
  exist.

• ---Yes,
  I realise this is a large change. It is a direct efficiency buff to
  healing by 20%. I feel we have come to that point where healing is
  become too underpowered in matches and it needs a buff. That is really
  all there is to say about it, healing across the board is not strong
  enough anymore. This change would apply to other forms of healing
  debuffs as well, so warriors are not alone here.
