Swords/Maces/Axes are usually Furrrreh loot, rogues use daggers 8)

This just proves even more that Fury Warriors are too much Plate Rogues, I predict the next thing will be ninjaing and the transformation will be complete :p

to bad rogues use sw0rds :<

1.60 Speed, eh? Nice stats but..... thats just an offhand for a rogue I suppose, seems Furreh to me idd :eek: Not sure I understand why they're introducing fast swords like this, and then hint and them being useful for rogues (like the default PTR rogue was equipped with the Hakkari set a few patches ago). I'm a bit out of the game with swords, but if nothing has changed then this is no rogue weapon.

I mostly agree, the only true advantage it presents is mainly for PvP if you're Sword Rogue (Poison Applying), speed doesn't matter as much in PvE; while I'm not sure I think CTS (IE) might be a bit above this, or at least damn close, then again the boosts is nice as Swords can use the Crit easily without even being close to worrying about aggro. I'm just a bit confused about this sudden accept for making fast swords.

Take that, you wretched Hunters! :p

But seriously, this chest has mail AC and more AC than Warrior T2 I think. So it makes sense to limit this to the frail classes since it seems to be just made for that.

Like Ironweave or whatchmacallit is now.

Just a typo, it should read "more Stamina than Warrior T2 I think"

But I am too lazy to edit it now :<

Here is the Ironweave Suit I mentioned above. The similarities are there, no? :wink:

Interesting, class restrictions on regular drops:

Check the armor :eek:

Awesome, think that they should have implemented this long long ago, it alleviates all of these 'item balance' issues that Blizzard keep nattering about. They will hopefully now be able to introduce much more benficial loot without it being OP for another class :D

I guess its meaningless to point this out, but fast 1h weapons (swords, maces, axes) is what works best for paladin tanking.
