After the opening of the P3 phase of the World of Warcraft TBC version of the Nostalgia Suit, the T6 Regiment would have dropped the Essinos Blade, the first orange weapon of the Burning Expedition expansion pack. Since this weapon can only be used by the two classes of warrior and thief, the strength of the double knife warrior and the double knife thief has also become the focus of discussion among players.
At level 60 nostalgic suits, berserk and rogues have little difference in status in the quest. At the beginning of the TBC version, these two professions also became a pair of difficult brothers. Whether it is the five-person stage or the regimental stage, the difficulty of berserker warfare and thieves entering the group is very large.
With the TBC version gradually deepening, berserk warfare also gives people a feeling of imminent rise, and the situation of thieves has not changed much, and even many racing groups can bring several berserks, but are unwilling to bring a thief, so even with a double egg knife, the ability of thieves should still be lower than that of warriors, the reason is that there is a big gap in the growth of these two professions.
Although Berserker and Rogue are dual-wielding classes, the demand for hit attributes is not so high for Berserk Warfare with Heroic Strike as the main output skill, and after reaching 9% of the skill full hits, the rest can follow the fate, which also means that Berserk Warfare can invest more attributes in other aspects, not to mention that the TBC version does not have the problem of critical hit overflow.
On the other hand, the profession of thieves, because a large part of the damage proportion comes from white characters, so the requirements for hits are extremely high, and the hits are high, and other attributes are naturally low. In terms of equipment and gems, there are also fewer places to adjust.
Attributes are only one aspect, and what really distances berserk warriors from thieves is the mechanism of obtaining combat resources.
The battle resource of Berserker Warfare is Anger, and the Combat Resource of Thieves is Energy. For berserk warfare, the better the equipment, the higher the damage, the higher the anger obtained, which is a very good virtuous circle, and for the thieves, good equipment can only directly increase their own damage, and can not improve their ability to obtain speed, so combat resources are the biggest problem for thieves in the entire TBC version.
As a sword-type weapon, the egg knife is no different for berserkers and thieves. Although the use of egg knife deputies in berserker warfare will reduce the damage of the whirlwind chopper, at this stage, berserk warfare generally does not use the whirlwind slash in terms of the single boss, so the impact of weapon speed is minimal, not to mention that fast weapons can be conducive to obtaining anger, and the benefits in the killing stage are also higher.
Starting in P3, melee classes can gain 2 powerful secondary attributes, one for armor breaking and one for Rush. In terms of armor breaking, the benefits of berserker warfare and thieves are basically the same. In terms of speed, the comprehensive benefits of berserk warfare are higher than those of thieves, so even after taking a double knife, thieves' DPS ability will still be weaker than berserk warfare.
Of course, there were not many players who opened the Dark Temple in version 2.43 more than a decade ago, and even fewer players gathered egg knives, and there was no DPS record of double knife berserk battles and double knife thieves in the same squad, and after the 10,000-year TBC version of egg knives increased, the class mechanism also changed. However, from the situation in the P1 and P2 stages, it can be seen that berserk warfare is indeed more growing than thieves, at least in terms of class cap, thieves are not as good as berserkers.
