The Runed Fighter's Staff, previously usable by Monks and Warriors, has been restricted to Monks only. The statistics on this staff are much more powerful than normally allowed for warriors. This change is retroactive and will be reflected on items currently in inventory. Though we strive to avoid negatively adjusting items after they have been earned, this item presented a balance issue, making the change necessary. We apologize to warriors that currently own this weapon.


Seems like this is in reference to warriors being too powerful but only in relation to one item, which indicates the possibility that warriors can do sizeable damage but it was considered game-breaking. That leads me to believe that 2h weapons specifically meant for DPS classes not being good DPS weapons is a problem, as well.
