Give warrior spell reflect?

[Michelkesin]

Hi Everyone

I was reading a post about removing holystrike in battleground. I read warrior's complain, I can agree with that warrior to some extend, but I think the problem is not entirely about paladin, a more important problem is that warrior is weak in pvp 1v1.
So I thought about the idea of giving warrior a new spell. Spell reflect (from wotlk). What do everyone think?

Thank you for reading.

I would follow this guide unless it's already so outdated...

again, Vanilla PVP is team-based as far as I'm aware and some classes are supposed to be weak against each other.

That's like saying remove Mages crowd control cause I'm a warrior and I cant be arsed to bring some pots so I don't get stuck in place by mage.

I do not agree that warriors are weak in pvp.
The thing is that in vanilla wow, at least, every class has a counterclass. In other words, there are classes that are harder to beat than others for warriors. I can tell you straight away that paladins struggle tremendously against shamans and priests.
Other than that, gear difference is always a factor. If your enemies are packed in t2-3 level gear, then you will have no chance in preraid BiS.
Finally, personal skills in pvp can make a big difference too. Some people invest a lot of time to make macros, learn professions (like engeneering) and make consumables for battlegrounds. That can often turn the tides in their favor.

Having said that, maybe a spell reflect for warriors would be a good idea as a custom turtle ability, with certain limitations. for example, needing shield to use it and only available in defensive stance. Maybe it will only have a 25% chance of reflecting a spell and other 75% you just resist spell damage. Add a several minute cooldown on it and it could be a thing for warrior tanks. Not to say that warrior tanks aren't doing great already though.

Warrior is the best 1v1 class in the game and is the best class in WSG, regardless of population in WSG. The only class better than Warrior in vanilla PvP is mage and only in AB or AV. Given that we have had maybe a dozen AVs in 2+ years of TWoW and given that AB doesn't work right now, warriors definitely do not need a PvP buff.

There's absolutely no way warriors are the best 1v1 class in the game. They are arguably the worst because of how many things counter them. Shamans, mages, druids, and hunters can kite them for eternity. Rogues can simply avoid them. Paladins and warlocks depends on the spec, usually a skill matchup.

I guess you never saw a good druid in WSG then....
