>>503677702>mana problems out the assIt's not really that bad in raids, JoW more or less solves all of it, on top of the damage you take from seal of blood/martyr and the mana you get from spiritual attunement. Yes you may have to dark rune once or twice here and there but it's largely never an issue.
>have to stare at a fucking swing timer and your reward for successfully twisting is.. middling dpsThe reward for me is seeing 4 massive crits totaling 15K+ damage in a single swing. Seeing those go off consecutively is like crack. It's just not for everyone. You kind of need to be able to tank your own dungeons, well you should at least. It's so much easier to hard reserve the primal nethers you'll need to even craft your lionheart champion.
>>503677757>extreme hyperautistic era plan>goes hordeYou're not wrong. I just have 0 interest in playing alliance. WF is too much fun and I intend on playing horde for TBC anyway. There's 0 reason to be alliance in TBC. Sure human ret paladins have a tiny edge with the extra expertise from their racial but if/when an Era TBC launches, my main will be my orc warrior that will hopefully get glaives at some point. Blood Fury is too good to pass up.
