Actually things were much easier before WoD (especially in Cata).... thunderclap (which we no longer get) reduced the mobs attack rating, execute wasn't taken away, stance dancing wasn't really needed in my opinion, shield slam for 1h/shield warriors, Slam for 2h warriors and no reduced exp on "old" content. Not to mention revenge was a heavy hitting ability as well that we no longer get. But at WoD release like I said green mobs were hitting harder than they seem to be now... not sure when that changed but I know it has. Gives me hope for having fun doing this again rather than struggling to kill gray mobs to complete barely green quests. Took a break to quickly read through the old patch notes, ( eu.battle.net/wow/en/game/patch-notes/6-0 ), to 6.2.2a but didn´t found anything relevant. Neither a buff to Warrior as a class (That would affect the Ironman version.) or some kind of damage reduction to the mobs across the game world. Maybe thanks to some balancing when the Item/stat squish occurred?

No whatever changed clearly was a unlisted change (Blizz is fond of those)... shortly after WoD dropped by the time an Iron warrior hit 35'ish even some gray mobs were doing more damage to you than you could to them. Warrior dps is still terrible now but at least it is viable if not extremely slow compared to most iron classes.

It took me roughly 58-60 hours of in-game time to reach 60 on the two warriors I got to that milestone. I would say that the leveling speed is alright until you hit around 30 where you feel it takes longer to kill mobs and as a warrior you need to visit more zones to keep that 5+ level power.
Don´t know the average played time for example a hunter to reach to 60 but I would guess its less that 30 hours if you know what you are doing, hopefully a hunter can give me some insight here?

Just started a Warrior after a long break from IMC. Level 11 and killing is already going at a glacial pace, lol.

Kinda quiet around these parts...
WoW noob here, who was feeling depressed with the endless quest lines, and turbo leveling. Always felt like I was missing half the game following the golden path.
So glad I found some fellow masochists.
Tauren Arms Warrior here, just hit 15 last night, and am loving the Blood Thirsty challenge. Really feels like old EQ to me; grinding mobs for exp, and hunting down rarer mobs for better loot. I'm kind of taking a big game hunter approach, trying to kill every rare in an area before I move to the next. That however is more of a challenge than the grind so far. Some of those rares are really on long timers.
So far the pace is just right; we'll see how I feel in 40 levels...
Peace.

I got a tinman (or in the process) level 20 void elf warrior. Been trying to get an iron to too level but so far keep dying early, seems tinman might be the best way to get there first then try Ironman again. Wondering are there any new tips? For the latest version of the game, Been a few years since the last post.
