Good thing or Bad thing?

So maybe it is to soon to be looking at the 3.3 patch notes, but I was looking at all the changes the other classes are getting to their abilities. As I was scrolling down I was thinking to myself, "can't wait to see the what changes came to the warrior" and I see this.
Warriors
Victory Rush: This ability is now trainable at level 6.
Talents
Protection
Damage Shield: This ability will no longer trigger any chance-on-hit effects from the warrior or the opponent it damages.
All the other classes have a good amount of stuff being changed/fixed/revamped but the warrior gets just this :( Then I got to thinking it could be worse, like a warrior nerf. I guess I was hoping to get a little more change for the good of the warrior. Getting victory rush only helps out lower level warriors and Damage shield i would say is a nerf to the warrior but its nothing to extreme in my opinion. I just always get real anxious when new patches come out and see classes getting buffed or nerf. Warriors are my favorite class and I just felt kind let down see on other classes updates and then seeing 4 lines of text for the warrior. Could be a good thing though, maybe the warrior is a well balanced class and does not need any improvement or blizz doesn't like us. Anyone else feel the same?

I believe that warriors, as they are right now, are being used as a sort of baseline for other classes.
We have a DPS spec that does excellent in early endgame and one that scales well for late endgame. We have a tank spec that has minor issues but is still being utilized in raids all across the difficulty spectrum. We have two viable PvP styles and one that isn't utterly crippled for casual PvP.
Frankly, I appreciate the stability. Would you rather play a death knight where your talents get completely rewritten with every major patch?
True, I guess if I look at it in another characters perspective and your talents keep getting changed over and over it could get pretty annoying. Maybe I just had my hopes up for getting something new or a minor buff in something that is all.

They have said warriors are where they would like them at the moment. Don't expect to see any changes. If you're not happy right now where warriors are at, I would suggest you re-roll.
I too miss the glory days where warriors were top of the food chain in arenas and bg's, and was dishing out more dps than rogues. But I think those days are long over and I wouldn't hold my breath for them to come back.
