So what exactly IS the issue with Warrior?

[symba]

The only reason warriors seem to have higher dps is because they have a better dps rotation they can use that won't take aggro/threat. Which in reality makes them a lot more practical for DPSing on any encounter. HS>MAIM>SE is 203.33 Potency/GCD (plus it comes with a 20% damage buff & 10% slashing resist) and 66.67 TP/GCD. Paladins have FB>RB which is 190 Potency/GCD and 75 TP/GCD.
