That be warriors, for sure, always have. This expansion with the most radical changes has proven again that warriors with gear are amazing.
Can anyone explain why warriors scale higher than other classes?
They are - probably - the class that scales the most with weapons simply because most, if not all, warrior abilities depend on weapon damage.

The difference for gear scaling between classes is minimum.
Getting more crit/haste/res/ap/etc... is equally important for every classes.
The warrior difference is how warriors scale with their weapons.
No other classes depends so much on a good weapon to success since almost dps ressources scale directly from the weapon damage range.
MS, OP, Rend, DW, White hits, etc...
Besides HS and Execute, everything scale with weapon damage
Give a warrior an epic weapon and his damage will REALLY go up.
Hunters would be close second but their Chimera and explosive shots don't scale with weapons and beast masters pets do a higher % of their damage.
Other melee classes would follow near hunters but all of them got a higher proportion of dps abilities scaling with AP ( diseases, envenom, exorcism, lava lash, etc... ).
Casters would be last, their dps abilities only scale with stats.

im just going to chime in and share what i have observed recently.
My prot pally equipped 5 peices of the lvl 70 pvp set plus sword and shield. 70-79 up until cata release was mopping the floor with everyone. I havent played it in a while but prot pallys are doing very well in bgs now.
My warrior was ok as protection but at lvl 70 i really didnt see the improvement like my pally. fury was a complete joke until 77 and i could get the cat gear. at 80 fury was a joke again up until 85. Now I have 4 pieces of the crafted pvp set and a trinket sitting at about 900 resi. Fury is fun and i'm fairly durable in random bgs. Prot pallies and frost mages give me the toughest time.
