The Defense Warrior in PvP

[Thawwing Light]

What I was getting at is that he was being a point man with healer support in moderate zerg PvP. Very hard to anticipate the amount of incoming damage - he could be totally ignored in favor of high value cloth targets on his side, or he could be the only guy in range of the rear alliance lines and be the recipient of some nasty burst damage.

I don't think the warrior in the video had last stand, but in that sort of combat, I can see last stand being handy quite frequently. That 6k buffed HP extends out to ~8k effective HP if you treat last stand as a 30% bonus.

Point taken. I liked Last Stand when I had it, but I'd need to get used to using it. That's the problem with 10min timers - that's not every fight, or even every other fight. It's more like once every four or five battles, and something that needs to be reserved until you know it's wanted.

In PvP, if you're the subject of some focuised fire, I'd agree that Last Stand could very well make the difference between being splattered and surviving. Also, it seems PvP is largely very fast battles, so 20s could be quite useful there.

So, these 3 points to get Last Stand (improved bloodrage is pointless these days) could add PvP utility to the defensive warrior for some useless points... if they're willing to get used to the skill.
