Warriors are a very powerful class, with the ability to tank
or deal significant melee damage. The warrior’s Protection
tree contains many talents to improve their survivability and
generate threat versus monsters. Protection warriors are one
of the main tanking classes of the game and are considered
the “classic” tanking class. (They’re also great flag carriers
in PvP!)
They also have two damage-oriented talent trees – Arms
and Fury, the latter of which includes the talent Titan’s
Grip, which allows the warrior to wield two two-handed
weapons at the same time. They are capable of strong melee
AoE damage with spells such as Cleave, Whirlwind,
Bladestorm. A warrior fights while in a specific stance,
which affects Rage generation.
Protection: Primarily for tanking.
Fury: Can dual-wield weapons; primarily PvE dps.
Arms: Strong in PvE; also has good survivability and burst
talents for PvP.
All warriors can buff their raid or group by using a shout,
Battle Shout or Commanding Shout.
Warriors have numerous useful methods of getting to their
target in a hurry! All warriors can use Charge to reach an
enemy and they also have Intervene, which allows them to
intercept a friendly target and protect them from an attack.
Buffs and Debuffs: Stamina ( Commanding Shout), Attack
Power ( Battle Shout), Weakened Armor ( Sunder
Armor), Physical Vulnerability ( Colossus Smash),
Weakened Blows ( Thunder Clap), and Mortal Wounds (
Mortal Strike, Wild Strike).
Deep Wounds is automatically applied from Thunder
Clap and Mortal Strike.
