7% of players are playing Warrior, every other class over 15% - no buffs to melee????

What are GGG doing to fix their worst class? Releasing dogwater uniques that lower your attack speed further are not it.

The Warrior is so ugly, slow and boring that i wont ever play him.....
All these slow slams jumps......

worst class design ever....
We have been asking for changes in the class since day 1. I think they mentioned that they're going to change the animation speed and make the armor more useful in a livestream a couple months ago but they haven't touched on the subject again.
They aim for 0.01%, so it should be fine.
I started as a Warrior, with 1h mace and shield actually. I had no idea. Became stuck around early act 3 normal, read up on the class, pulled off the silly double 2h Sunder stunt and realized I am not enjoying this playstyle, its not what I thought of when I chose warrior.

I am now a happy shock sorc in act 2 cruel.
warrior is fine
problem is mostly hammer.

it is it feels slow and clunky. Damage is good but speed and locked animations are rlly bad.
even shield charge is sucks. you cant use while moving. your character have to stop before running (no idea why?)

Yes, I agree. I feel really bad for maces. We can move and shoot. We can move and cast. Why can't we move and bonk? It's like the game went out of its way to uniquely punish maces.

you mean the Q&A with streamers where they asked about warrior and the first response they got was "warrior is fine" ? xD

then when pushed they avoided direct answer and looked angry that someone disagrees with them ? ... that stream ? ...
If there's any buff planned it's gonna be in 0.2, not in 0.1.
