Game Mechanics: Warrior Bugs

Berseker frenzy should have a +str component to it. Not sure of the exact value, but it was something like a 10% modifier or +10 or +15. Also I seem to remember it starting when you are under 40% health and remained until you were healed above 45% health. Currently I think it starts at 35% and you lose it as soon as your go back above 35%.

Strength in general doesn't seem to affect your max dmg as much as it should, at least at the values I've been able to obtain. The formula for max dmg on your primary hand was [((Weapon Skill + Strength)/100) * (DMG)) + (Level Damage Bonus)]. This likely isn't that big of a deal overall though since hits over your magic number of 2 * weap dmg only accounted for a few percent of your total number of hits (assuming atk does move the avg range of hits between your min hit and magic number hit). I believe this is where most of the complaints about there being a hybrid dmg cap are from which I don't believe is the actual case.

Another relatively minor thing. Slam seems to do more dmg then i remember already at lvl 29, especially considering i don't think str is affecting it. There is a graph from a lvl 46 warrior showing bash working as 6 dmg weapon at that level. It already seems to be hitting for a max of 18 for me.

The Taunt skill is by far the biggest thing broken with warriors right now. I haven't been able to find any parses of taunt's effectiveness and what cons it worked on for anything before POP to back this up however. It works better at 29 then it did at lower levels, but is still much less effective then i remember it being. I was able to DW langseaxs untill around 30 in classic and be an adequate tank. Yes, SK's and rangers could pull agro off me at will if they were trying or not watching agro, but I could use the taunt skill and more often then not regain agro on a mob. At 29 with a FBSS, Obsidian Shatter and a Silvery War Axe i still cringe when trying to keep agro and prefer grouping with an SK or Pally and letting them tank which was never the case before. The skill currently seems to increase in effectiveness as you level and even cons and higher don't seem to be tauntable at all. I seem to remember the skill working consistently around 2/3 of the time from low levels on up. I also remember being able to taunt even cons and yellow/low red cons though with a greatly reduced chance of success, but it has been a long time and my memory isn't the greatest. I have found a parse from a lvl 65 in POP that shows a lvl 65 being able to taunt an even con and a lvl 1 60% of the time.

Hate from weapon dmg and procs seems pretty accurate from what i have seen.
