I apologize in advance for posting on this thread, but as it is of relevance and I didn't want to post a new thread, I figure I'd post here.
My Fury Warrior hit level 70 a month ago. Since that time, I have not been able to do a single thing to upgrade my character. I have tried my best to get gear that goes in accordance to the Gear List: Lvl 70 and Kara Gear Check and thought I was in pretty good shape to do some heroics, normal MrT/Bot/Mech, or even a kara run.
However, that is not the case. I have been told numerous times that Fury Warriors are useless and my gear is woefully outdated and I should be in level 70 gear. When I see people advertising their group is looking for more, I get one of the following responses:
MrT/Bot/Mech/SH (normal): I should be in kara gear
Heroics: I should be in kara gear or better
Kara: Why aren't you a tank?
Raids: I need to be in kara gear or better
After a month of hearing this... I'm starting to wonder what's the point in having a fury tree for warriors? Now I know I should have over 2k AP and a hit rating of 95. But how am I supposed to get that when everything that has upgrades for me I am ineligible to do without having the AP and hit rating? Is it me or is there some sort of ultimate catch 22 going on here? As you can see from my signature, I've retired my fury warrior in favor of a tankadin.
It just seems the only things I can as a level 70 fury warrior right now is normal ramps, blood furnace, durnholde, and dark portal. The way things stand now, I don't see any reason to expect to be able to do any of the current outland endgame stuff until I'm level 80... at which point I won't get any benefit from doing the outland endgame... and probably won't be able to do northrend instances and endgame until I'm level 90.
Does anyone else see something wrong with this picture? The only people that can stomach partying with me for any of the above mentioned activities are my friends... and I'm starting to wonder if that is more out of pity than anything else.
Any advice would be helpful... because I really don't know what I'm doing wrong (aside from trying to play a warrior as something other than a tank). Here is the link to my armory page:
