Warrior cross class debate

[Rhais]

I actually think flash is very useful. It works great for quickly picking up initial threat on multiple enemies that might not be positioned or spawn in a position that makes tagging them with overpower as easy. It can also be advantageous in certain situations since you don't have to have the enemy targeted to hit them with flash.

Steel Cyclone?

Steel Cyclone?

It's not always what I want to spend wrath on, or always up.

Can't imagine you needing IB's buff for trash pulls.

Steel Cyclone does everything you mentioned in your previous post and between the stacks you build + Infuriate it's great for chain pulling.

I'd hardly deem Flash 'very useful' just because you're choosing to use it over superior skills

On warrior I typically use flash when I'm pacified since you can still flash while under that effect, otherwise I'll just use Overpower or Steel cyclone. While it isn't always needed on pally if you use CoS and swap targets a lot it's much more useful on a pally, blind can also help every now and again on large groups.

Not really needed but sure.

I also use it for slugs on t6 but didn't think it deserved a mention as situational stuff that I use once per week hardly says much about Flash on War as a whole.

I wasn't necessarily talking about just having it for trash pulls, and it's not like there is just a plethora of amazing cross class abilities I'm passing up to keep flash on. Sure there are times where I don't get much use out of it, but there are also plenty of situations where I find it pretty useful. Anyway that's just my opinion on the subject, but for me it's worth keeping as one of my cross class abilities.

Yeah there's not much choice, I used to have Mantra slotted in instead of Flash but never noticed any benefit from it.

Awesome replies everyone. This makes me feel like I'm doing the right thing on warrior. I am new to the class and coming from ilevel 95 paladin I think warrior is just as good if not better in some places.

Preparing all the melee classes for when ninja drops. Never know what I'll need to know for each for that class and what cross class skills I need to acquire.

I am a Warrior, and I have flash equipped.

Some good uses for flash as a Warrior include:
PBAOE aggro, (no cone)
When you want to conserve TP,
Pacification,
Aggro on slept mobs, (it will keep them off your healer when they wake)
Aggro on mobs that must not die. (Slimes in T1 or Spiny plume in Garuda EX)

Whilst it's certainly possible to tank without Flash, I believe that having it give far more options that a tank without.
