Who else noticed that the T4 set bonus for 4/4 gives us rage for dodge/parried attacks, but expertise reduces our chances to have our attacks dodge/parried..

We now get a 2% dodge reduction talent, which means we only need 57 expertise rating to fully negate dodges. Parries shouldn't happen anyhow (attack from behind like a good rogue).

Counter intuitive? Or fail-safe?

Expertise>>>>>>4 piece T4 DPS set bonus. Show me a fury warrior who has not enough rage to keep WW/BT/Rampage up, I have a problem not getting rid of rage fast enough.

Just my 2 CP though.

The point isn't that the set bonus is better than expertise. The point is that expertise totally negates the set bonus. So what's the point?

Unfortunately, overpower also gets set aside as a dps ability. So what's the point of speccing imp overpower if your target never dodges? Specifically the 2h PvE DPS builds will have to spec imp rend ... Because our talent sudden became useless. Yes staying in battle stance has it's use's, especially if your the debuff machine, and your job is to keep Battle shout on your melee group, and Tclap, Demo shout, Blood Frenzy on the target, since now Droods and Tankadins are MTing and don't have those abilities.

So I guess my point, also, is that blizzard has been eliminating warriors' build flexibility. Giving us set bonus's that are rather useless. Eliminating talents from use; Imp rend will be better than imp overpower for pve dps, how many people thought that before?

Well, if you look back at when the T4 set bonuses were put in place, it was alot earlier than the implementation of Expertise.

Granted, they should have changed the T4 set bonus when they instilled the Expertise rating, but thats just blizzard to be counter productive.

The T5 2-piece bonus has never been used in raids either, so it's not exactly suprising. *shrug*
