"Sweeping Strikes and Deathwish have swapped locations in the talent trees."

Disastrous. PvE DPS warriors who spec Fury for dual wield do not need Sweeping Strikes. What good is this in an instance or raid environment? Especially with all the fragile crowd control we have to be so careful to avoid. We have to take a talent we will never use to get Bloodthirst now.

DPS warriors need Death Wish to pop to try to burn down the boss for you, because nobody takes a DPS warrior to clear the trash, it just takes too long for a warrior to build up a head of steam. Apparently we are supposed to all go 31/30/0 and get a weapon spec and Mortal Strike instead of Bloodthirst.

This hurts our DPS (obviously), our itemization (forced weapon spec), and also makes the buff to off-spec tanking irrelevant. Nobody is going to have the points to spare for Tactical Mastery.
