/silly: Can't see the forest for the trees

Clicking the above image will reveal the wondrous enigma that is this week's /silly comic. The inspiration for this comic actually came from one of my guild mates, who has a rather neglected level 70 warrior main trying to find her niche in the endgame world. The complaints I have heard about the strong weaknesses of each of the three warrior trees seemed like ripe pickings for a comic, so I went ahead and paraphrased in the most humorous way I could fashion. From a personal standpoint, I can't really take sides on the issue of where warriors stand compared to the other melee classes. It is well established that my main is a retribution paladin, and on top of that my highest level warrior is only level 23, so I am lacking in the experience to speak authoritatively. Deku, the adorable orc featured today, is only just coming to the point where talents factor into the game. Bonus points to those that know where the name came from, by the way.
So I hear there is a patch of some sort today? Did you guys hear anything about that? Man, I wish someone would mention it somewhere...
Arthur E. "Arturis" Orneck spends way too much time staring at monitors, whether it is for web development, gaming, or drawing on his tablet PC at odd hours of the morning in order to get this blasted web comic posted on time every Tuesday morning, so that all you fantastic readers have something to stare at while servers are down for maintenance.

"Protection Warriors like shields. A lot. I mean, if they could marry a shield and have little shield babies, they would."
ROFL. The internet is yours today, Sir.

Loved the orc expression. I think it's the first non-very-f'ing-ugly I've seen.

Hehe, nice comic! :P Don't fully agree on you with the Fury tree (it's quite nice for soloing!) but that doesn't make this comic less funny :P

This was a good one :) The shield babies made me roffle. And thank you for the patch humor - everyone is so damn serious and/or negative about it!

Not only is it hilarious, it is sob-in-my-arms true. I salute you. ;)

And who can forget Majora's Mask. I know it's OoT ftw, but being a deku was pretty sweet as well...I mean, pretending to be a helicopter with spinning pink flowers to keep you in the air :D

I get the feeling I shouldn't have respecced from arms to fury after 2.3 for the purpose of soloing/leveling.
OTOH Arms has been made more specialized for PvP now.
