The Care and Feeding of Warriors: What's ahead for warriors on PTR Patch 4.2

Every week, WoW Insider brings you The Care and Feeding of Warriors, the column dedicated to arms, fury and protection warriors. Despite repeated blows to the head from dragons, demons, Old Gods and whatever that thing over there was, Matthew Rossi will be your host.

Despite not tanking for the groups I pug, I have in fact been running the Rise of the Zandalar heroics quite a bit on warrior #2. So far, he's managed to claw his way from ilevel 329 to 350, having snagged a few solid upgrades in his time in Zul'Gurub and Zul'Aman. It didn't really make much sense bringing warrior #1 in after I got the hat and shoulders that made up for the ones that won't drop in raids, so project bootstrap was initiated, and so far I've enjoyed playing arms in PvE content on him. In the gear he has, I can manage a respectable 14-15k or so -- not awesome, but not terrible either.

Of course, a lot of things are going to change in patch 4.2, and I'm looking at the patch with the healthy skepticism of the long-time warrior. The fact that absolutely no nerfs of any kind were in the most recent patch notes just makes me even more suspicious. I've come to expect nerfs from patches. It's kind of a thing. Seeing other classes get nerfed while warriors get no changes at all is like wondering where the alligators with clocks in their stomachs got off to.

Meanwhile, in between expecting the sky to fall (it's going to one of these days, you'll see), I've been looking at the tier 12 set bonuses and thinking about them. I've also been digging on the armor itself; it looks pretty awesome, in my opinion. Since we just got another round of feedback from the devs as of today, I'll be incorporating that into my post.
