Demo shout
Was reading the warrior Q & A and blizz were talking about Shouts:
Q. Demoralizing Shout tends to have a very minimal impact in most situations, are there plans to improve this ability?
A. I think by “most situations” you must mean “PvP.” Demo Shout has a massive benefit against raid bosses. It’s probably 20% less damage from a typical boss and literally like 50% against say Thorim’s Unbalancing Strike. However, removing 400 attack power from a Feral druid with 9000 attack power, or a Shadow priest who doesn’t care about attack power at all is of much more limited use. Monsters and players use pretty different combat formulae (which is one of the weird things about the old design of say Vindication). We would like Demo Shout to be more useful in PvP, at least against characters who rely on attack power.
20% less damage from a raid boss with demo shout up? seriously? cant say i've ever noticed...

Re: Demo shout
Thats gotta be BS, i dread to think what Unbalancing would be like if it actually was 50% more without demo shout!
Luckily Paladins are getting demo shout (that auto applies on melee hit rofl) in 3.2 so we can move this thread away from the warriors then! :p

Bliz seems to have read this post. Think I will go heal. Stacking bandages as we speak.
