Over at the World of Warcraft forums, gamer Zanyu is complaining that there seems to be an imbalance as far as items and professions are concerned. Citing the item list from the official WoW site, Zanyu wants to know why the epic mace, Stormherald, is left off.

The Stormherald is a two-handed weapon forged by Blacksmiths, but could only be used by Smiths who bear the Hammersmith specialty.

Zanyu reasons why this weapon should be in the official list, since Blizzard has already given rogues the Rod of the Sun King. The epic, one-handed mace may be useful for Fury Warriors, but it's notably a very powerful weapon for rogues in PvP and PvE situations - let alone the Arena Tournament.

Blizzard blue poster Bornakk swiftly replied and said Blizzard hasn't implemented any item which "requires a profession to use." The Hammersmith limitation of the Stormherald meant it wouldn't be added by Blizzard - thus, its absence in the weapons available for the Arena.

 A dedicated weapon may come in the future but so far all items are unbiased for all professions.

Now that the Arena Tournament 2008 is being held (currently in Phase 2), however, it may be too late for a quick arsenal change for warriors. Stay tuned here at QJ.NET for more updates.
