Despite not playing a warrior, I loved this video. Highly informative and well presented. I particularly loved that you included the clear images of the talents and glyphs, as well as the icons for the rotation. It made following along much clearer. Another example of TankSpot's finest!
This video is some serious nostalgia.. After this video I learned to look at the game from a strategic point of view and not just running around exploring the world.
@AceAngel991 The addon that adds the glow to your bars and can also change the format of them is ButtonFacade. You also need Armor pen to hit more often, warriors are the class which get parried/dodge, that's why you need armor pen... to deal at max 10% more damage and have a higher likely-ness to strike someone without them parrying/dodging.
Hey cool! Thegreatme working with Tankspot! Great video. You have a very clean UI setup which has been the model for my UI setup (yes folks, I have seen his other videos.) Good video quality and good commentary. I also like the basic info and I think it's very helpful. My only suggestion is to shorten the amount of time between "lines" in order to help keep viewer attention. BB
@TrygveL last talent of arms is bladestorm. it is way stronger than whirlwind and generally used in pvp rather than pve. either way, all warriors have whirlwind. it is a regular warrior spell.
@AceAngel991 that means you do not need a trinket proc like grim toll to make you hit 100% armor mitigation. its like you're hitting them naked, which is why it is so good. but the reason is scales is because you can still miss if your hit rating is zero, expertise zero, and if your attack power is only 1000, you wont hit very hard anyways. hit rating soft cap makes all your special attacks hit, meaning your whirlwind, mortal strike, etc. hard cap for hit rating makes even your white attacks hit
@ESPmaniacz for opening up in a fight? I generally just stack on the tank staying slightly behind him making sure that I don't pull too much burst threat. My opener is bloodrage, which will generate 45 rage if you are specd for it, then Recklessness. Both of which I use when the tank is at 3 in his pull countdown. As soon as I am about 10 yards from the boss I cast Death WIsh and I start pounding. This will allow you to pop all of your cooldowns before the combat starts thus saving GCDs
@m3v0t You mean Deep Wounds? Deep wounds 2/2 Increases 16% of your melee weapon damage over 6 sec. So every time you crit you make it bleed for more dps.
Just to confirm, addons that I can see.... Pitbull for frames, actionbars are bartender, minimap is sexymap, and he's also using prat for his chat box, though you don't see it in use.
@Qman91 It may be more stronger, but it has an 1.5 min CD and it does 6 WWs. And Whirlwind can be made every 10 sec, so it can be made 15 times. Compared to BladeStorm.
Hey awesome video! A question for all you fury warriors out there: do you use intercept at all? maybe charge then switch stance? or are u simply running towards the group wich will save the most rage? thx
@AceAngel991 stats screen in your character info you can see what i'm talking about,. armor penetration has nothing to do with how often you hit at all, that is purely based off hit rating, which takes off misses, and expertise, which takes off dodges. there is a soft cap and a hard cap for hit rating and armor pen. when you hit the soft cap for armor penetration, that means with a trinket that procs like grim toll, you can get 100% armor mitigation. when you hit the hard cap which is past 6k gs
Just a question, why do you take Booming voice and Commanding Presence? It doesn't stack with Blessing of Might from a paladin. Should put 5 points into Unbridled wrath instead for more rage generation.
@gmlgm well my point of view on the two dps specs are that: FURY - is great for pve dps becuase debuffs are rarely placed on you so you can do as much damage as possible. ARMS - is great for PvP dps because you can handle debuffs and stuns better aswell as stack more dot's on an opponent to me neither one is better because they both have strengths and weaknesses that balance the two of them out. hope this helped
Hey guys what happened to the Guide to the Holy Paladin? I just got my paladin to 80 and wanted tips on Spec and also enchants, gemming, and gear. Thank you very much Cant wait to see more!
For Glyph of Battle / Command, I have both in my minor Glyphs. Incase one other warrior wants to do one shout, I can do the other and I have the glyph neccessary to do so. I also have Glyph of Bloodrage. My Major Glyphs are Whirlwind, and both Execution and Cleaving. Cleaving I have for multiple target trash mobs. Although I dont have Glyph of Heroic Srike, it is sometimes not worth to get that glyph because of single-target bosses or trash mobs. Any thoughts or suggestions to this?
@ShawEagle2012 every fury warrior should use shattering throw EVERY time its off CD. Its adviced to do it before transition phases eg before the frost mourne room on LK. Some fury warriors do it full time and the DPS rewards are immene if you dont sudge it up
Is Ttocs and Thegreatme no longer with the Tankspot team? If Thegreatme is still with you guys, couldnt he like make an updated guide for Fury Warriors for both FotLK and Cataclysm?
I Need A Tip On My Fury Warrior... What's The Most Important Gems To Put - armor penetration, attack power, critical strike or hit rating? cause i'm a bit confused what i'm going to put... Thanks
Very slick UI. Not my style, but slick and clean nonetheless. I'm interested in what you're using that puts that texture around the minimap, though... Maybe the unitframes too, depending on how they customize. But definitely that minimap texture, do want! :)
what about gemming? Strength or Armor Pen? My warriors gs is around 4800 now, with 2 pieces of T9, crafted 245, 226 and 264 items. My expertise is capped, so is my hit. I'm just wondering if I should go with Armor pen even at lower gear levels.
What happens if my bloodsurge does not proc and i have around 50 rage so the heroic strike will be too expensive. What ability do i fill that space in with?
I have a fury warrior but i'm wondering about something, here goes: i've gemmed all my gear for str. a guy i know on the same server has really good gear and he's stacked fully on armor penetration ( as fury ) and does like 8-10k dps when should I switch from str to armor pen?
@finalfantasy50 There is nothing you do. Most guilds will run LK 25 HC for example with no fury so what I do is a priority WW > BT > Slam > Heroic Throw > Sunder Armor (Spam HC strike 24/7) Sunder is a vital part of any kill, 20% free ArP for anyone. Since we use a prot warrior OT I tend to use it only to refresh but still, I advise you to look to alternate methods of min maxing your globals than relying on bloodsurge every spare CD.
@ShawEagle2012 Not that I know off, better to spread it to stack with raid wide trinket CDs eg on LK 25 HC you can do it on the pull while the other fury warrior stacks sunder, and then the other can do it at the start of P2 while the other stacks sunder.
I play an lvl 41 fury warrior and i have a question. What is better for lvling? Dual Weild or 2h wep? im using Whirlwind Axe ATM. Respond please =) ty =)
@komun1212 The addons for his action bars is called Bartender and Buttonfacade... he uses the skin-addon: Caith on his buttonfacade addon to make his buttons look that way.
much thanks, I don't know how to roll anything but prot and the fact that this was in video was very helpful. but I could do with out the music :P anyways this was unbelievably helpful keep up the good work.
i had a warrior with 2k dps in heroics.. Now i followed this guide for some months and now i've got 3 - 4.5k dps's in hc's and 4 - 5k in raids :D... btw whats the name of the addon which makes you action bars look like they does in the video?
This is the first rotation I've ever watched way back when and I'm so happy I found it again

I will never forget when you made this video, Thegreatme!
@burnedtim , The Action bars are Bartender , The Stance bar is also Bartender , and the HuD is X-Perl Unit frames
my first class guide i ever watched and the cosyiest there ever will be soo good
Things like this are why I miss Wrath so much. If I could go back in time I would so quick.
@AceAngel991

Playing Wrath Classic and rewatching these. So, so nostalgic!
@AceAngel991 that means you do not need a trinket proc like grim toll to make you hit 100% armor mitigation. its like you're hitting them naked, which is why it is so good. but the reason is scales is because you can still miss if your hit rating is zero, expertise zero, and if your attack power is only 1000, you wont hit very hard anyways. hit rating soft cap makes all your special attacks hit, meaning your whirlwind, mortal strike, etc. hard cap for hit rating makes even your white attacks hit
Will there be guides for other classes as well? Love to see an Elemental Shaman guide.
What interface addons are you using there?
I miss the old wrath days so much :(
@ESPmaniacz for opening up in a fight? I generally just stack on the tank staying slightly behind him making sure that I don't pull too much burst threat.

@MckaysProductions i believe its Xperl
its a type of Unitframes addon.
Pitbull does it too i think
oh my god his UI looks so nice, what is the unit frame for his portrait and what is the thing around his map called?
@m3v0t You mean Deep Wounds? Deep wounds 2/2 Increases 16% of your melee weapon damage over 6 sec. So every time you crit you make it bleed for more dps.
Please tell us the name of the addons you use for the whole Compilation? Or is there a link to the compilation itself?
Just to confirm, addons that I can see....
Pitbull for frames, actionbars are bartender, minimap is sexymap, and he's also using prat for his chat box, though you don't see it in use.
@Qman91 It may be more stronger, but it has an 1.5 min CD and it does 6 WWs.
And Whirlwind can be made every 10 sec, so it can be made 15 times. Compared to BladeStorm.
I immediately noticed improvements after trying these tips. However i'm having a hard time hitting that expertise cap. any tips?
great video..
what addon is that displays your talents like that
Hey awesome video! A question for all you fury warriors out there: do you use intercept at all? maybe charge then switch stance? or are u simply running towards the group wich will save the most rage? thx

You can use Deep wounds in any battle stance. It only applys when you crit therefor making it bleed.
You don't have to be in combat stance to use it.
@Luminaen not sure but it might be shadowed unit frames or pitbull 4
56 Runescape Fans thubmed this down.
Really nice/impressive Guide ,helped alot ,
Thanks
@kickymcface
Yes, but why using it when you get palabuffed? Only commanding shout will then be buffed, but a properly geared tank won't need it.
@e1sasu HS is used for Single targets Cleave is for multimobs
@Fireslave1 In the 2nd part, Thegreatme says that HCS is only made for removing rage. Is that correct?
yeah what's the portrait addon? it looks so nice!
i would like to know your add ons for your toon frames i really like it.
What UI for HP and rage is it that you are using in this guide? The unitframe that is in the top left corner of the screen?
Can you update this for the Fall of the Lich King patch? And is Heroic Strike good to use, and in what situations is it good to use?
Just a question, why do you take Booming voice and Commanding Presence? It doesn't stack with Blessing of Might from a paladin. Should put 5 points into Unbridled wrath instead for more rage generation.
@2Katti2 u dont learn dualwield until level 10 i believe but that was a while ago so they might have changed it in one of the patches.
Is armored to the teeth still a talent? Or did Blitz nerf that one too?
@gmlgm
well my point of view on the two dps specs are that:
FURY - is great for pve dps becuase debuffs are rarely placed on you so you can do as much damage as possible.
ARMS - is great for PvP dps because you can handle debuffs and stuns better aswell as stack more dot's on an opponent
to me neither one is better because they both have strengths and weaknesses that balance the two of them out.
hope this helped
im coming up short on my expertise rating... are there any choice pieces we can buy with emblems?
what addons/ui packs is that? Thanks for a great vid.
I've been playing Fury Warrior ever since WoW first came into my life, and I agree with everything TGM says in this video...
Hey guys what happened to the Guide to the Holy Paladin? I just got my paladin to 80 and wanted tips on Spec and also enchants, gemming, and gear. Thank you very much Cant wait to see more!
will there be an arms warrior guide soon?
Hey man... what are your Addons? Action bar, Unit Frame, and mini map.
i want to know what is the importance of heroic fury as opposed to imp cleave. just wondering why you would take heroic fury for pve.
For Glyph of Battle / Command, I have both in my minor Glyphs. Incase one other warrior wants to do one shout, I can do the other and I have the glyph neccessary to do so. I also have Glyph of Bloodrage. My Major Glyphs are Whirlwind, and both Execution and Cleaving. Cleaving I have for multiple target trash mobs.

I have some questions about this class.
Im lvl 45 and is Dual Wielding or using an 2h weapon better?
Is Ttocs and Thegreatme no longer with the Tankspot team? If Thegreatme is still with you guys, couldnt he like make an updated guide for Fury Warriors for both FotLK and Cataclysm?
which addon is that which does your portrait look like that ?
I Need A Tip On My Fury Warrior... What's The Most Important Gems To Put - armor penetration, attack power, critical strike or hit rating? cause i'm a bit confused what i'm going to put...
Thanks
I just wanna know what he's using to display his talents.. That looks so awesome.
so when are you going to make a new guide valid through 3.3 ?
just to ask what is your ui? look's really cool:D
whats tht addon for his action bars and the one making defensive. battle....stance bigger?
Very slick UI. Not my style, but slick and clean nonetheless.
I'm interested in what you're using that puts that texture around the minimap, though... Maybe the unitframes too, depending on how they customize. But definitely that minimap texture, do want! :)
should i not worry about hit rating and the other thing since i am only 62 or is this guide for every warrior at any level.
Why is his two-handed weapon specialization only rank two? 4:34
What is the best for doing a lot of damage and getting health??
what about gemming? Strength or Armor Pen? My warriors gs is around 4800 now, with 2 pieces of T9, crafted 245, 226 and 264 items. My expertise is capped, so is my hit. I'm just wondering if I should go with Armor pen even at lower gear levels.
The hit cap for dual wield now is something like 900. Try and get as much as you can without sacrificing valuable gem spots, or other stats.
Hello, i was wondering, How would you gem a fury warrior, is it just pure Str?
What's the addon for you character portrait?
What happens if my bloodsurge does not proc and i have around 50 rage so the heroic strike will be too expensive. What ability do i fill that space in with?
is wirlwind fury? i looked at the spec and it seems that arms got it as a last talent.
am i wrong or?
Whats the addon for your Abbilities and unitframe?
What is the name of the addon that displays the toons, health, and mana/rage/energy at the top leaft of the video
I have a fury warrior but i'm wondering about something, here goes:
i've gemmed all my gear for str. a guy i know on the same server has really good gear and he's stacked fully on armor penetration ( as fury ) and does like 8-10k dps
when should I switch from str to armor pen?
Is Glyph of Heroic Strike needed?
the quality ROCKS!
That is the nicest mini map i have ever seen.
Care to share its addon name?
what that hp bar addons do you use ?? i have whant it for along time but i dont know whats the name on it
@BruisingMrB
yeah the dual wield hard cap is 27%, 24% with precision tho stacking that high is wasting stats.
@Chanzer70 pitbull you have to change a couple of settings to make it look like that tho
What is the name of the addon with your Health Bar? Plz answer
whats your adds on your using now?for your name and map.and where do i get them.
@finalfantasy50
There is nothing you do. Most guilds will run LK 25 HC for example with no fury so what I do is a priority
WW > BT > Slam > Heroic Throw > Sunder Armor (Spam HC strike 24/7)
Sunder is a vital part of any kill, 20% free ArP for anyone. Since we use a prot warrior OT I tend to use it only to refresh but still, I advise you to look to alternate methods of min maxing your globals than relying on bloodsurge every spare CD.

Is it worth to gem my gear with arp instead of str? as iLikeNachooooz said?
I play an lvl 41 fury warrior and i have a question. What is better for lvling? Dual Weild or 2h wep?
im using Whirlwind Axe ATM.
Respond please =) ty =)
same as brutalscream is it better to stack armor pen or str? or both? answer me pls
what is the addons that were used in this video ?
@komun1212 The addons for his action bars is called Bartender and Buttonfacade... he uses the skin-addon: Caith on his buttonfacade addon to make his buttons look that way.
what is best? arms fury or protection?
how did he get the action bars lined up like that whats he using?
wich addon are you useing for your hp/rage bar?
well the one under whirlwind is necassary... it gives you 20% more str when you are in berserker stance.
Is this video outdater or still works in cata?
wait how do u have a picture of u char moving in the top left?
what is that addon kinda like bar tender hes using?
What is better for PVP? fury or arms?
which button facade artwork is that?
Dude, which addons do you using?
@Camps2630 what setings did he change if you know
much thanks, I don't know how to roll anything but prot and the fact that this was in video was very helpful. but I could do with out the music :P anyways this was unbelievably helpful keep up the good work.
WOW nice.... ive been watching this guy since his first tutorial
i had a warrior with 2k dps in heroics.. Now i followed this guide for some months and now i've got 3 - 4.5k dps's in hc's and 4 - 5k in raids :D... btw whats the name of the addon which makes you action bars look like they does in the video?
The unit frame addon is Pitbull, and you need to be more specific when you say "Abilities addon"
