Well, I must admit to being confused. Even if they weren't shielded (if they were, they would be blocking MORE against WL), switching from 2h to DW shouldn't be responsible for them getting dropped like a rock.

It might even be a mental order-only-op-change-devs-favor-order-I-die-because-WLs-are-now-OP-because-devs-cater-to-order kinda thing, so they just needed to pin it on something when in fact lost to some really good WL. I really don't know nor have I tested, just some BG cried it out. :roll:

The only difference is you either get 10% parry from dual wield or 10% block(and parry ?) strike through with a 2h. All these mmk changes are bad, order buff etc opinions are stupid.

DW for WP would be fail since they mostly 2h hammers. I'm not 100% into lore so idk. I'm a bit unsure about if it is warhammer but i found a pic of a WP (i think ?) with 2 hammers:

So i guess it's possbile if it is legit, but i don't like it. And besides if WP get the option to go 2h or DW DoK would be mad, and i can't imagine a DoK with a 2h.
Being as the WP are obsessed with Sigmar, who wielded two hammers, I'd say it's likely it'd be ok if they did too.

IIRC didn't WL have DW in the intro sequence video?

So almost as if the portents were already fortelling of this, and Aza made it come true where Mythic could not...

Playing a white lion from almost the start, they removed the 4 second disarm from the white lion, nerfed the pet into the ground, and they were the only melee dps class to be pet dependent and not have an incoming heal debuff. Hatchets were in the game before but they were garbage and no one would ever use them. Having them on the loot tables as unusable crap would be a waste when the purples or blue drops. White lions were the bastard class of live and giving them 10 percent parry would be the least the devs could do for them. I approve this change good sir!!

I don't particularly care about it as long as it isn't game breaking. However, you must realize that destro players are going to bitch about it.

This proves nothing. And even if somehow WLs had some obscure advantage over BGs (which they don't), it doesn't matter: WAR was never balanced around 1v1.
