Mists of Pandaria Classic Fury Warrior Guide

Rather than using a single weapon, Fury chooses to wield a weapon in each hand. You can choose between Titan's Grip, which allows you to wield a 2-handed weapon in each hand, or Single-Minded Fury, which increases your damage dealt when wielding two 1-handed weapons instead. Fury has a very active playstyle, always having an ability ready to use. Unfortunately, this spec does not start off strong and requires very high end-game gear to fully unlock its potential.

Fury Warrior is an average DPS class in Mists of Pandaria PvE content. Similar to previous expansions, Fury starts of very weak early on and scales up throughout the expansions lifespan, becoming fairly powerful towards the end. Fury Warrior is great in 10-man raid groups as it can cover numerous buffs and debuffs. That being said Fury is still a melee DPS with limited unique utility, making it unlikely that many groups will bring multiple DPS Warriors to a raid, especially when you can just play the much more powerful Arms spec instead.

Strengths

• Strongest melee-cleave & AoE damage possible.
• Amazing sustained single-target damage output.
• Extremely durable, able to survive most mechanics.
• Great mobility and uptime.

Weaknesses

• Resource issues, often times Rage starved.
• Extremely gear reliant to perform well.

Warrior is the only class in the game that can be played by any race, allowing you to pick whatever you want; with that said, certain racials provide more benefit than others, weither its in PvE, PvP, or different specs. Below are our recommended races for both the Alliance and Horde Fury Warriors.

Worgen remains the strongest Alliance race for DPS, as Viciousness grants a full 1% crit chance, more than any other racial. This is especially important for DPS Warriors for a higher uptime of Enrage.

1. Worgen
   • Aberration/li>
   • Darkflight
   • Flayer
   • Viciousness

Orc remains the go-to choice for DPS Warriors for the 1% expertise from Axe Specialization, and the mini-trinket activation from Blood Fury.

1. Orc
   • Axe Specialization
   • Blood Fury
   • Hardiness

Mists of Pandaria balances most professions to be an equal amount of bonus stats, with most professions giving an average of 320 stats increase. That being said, there are always certain advantages and disadvantages to each profession, making certain professions slightly stronger than others.

1. Engineering — Engineering remains the best in slot profession thanks to the new tinker Synapse Springs. Grounded Plasma Shield, another new tinker, is a decent on use defensive shield that can save your life. Nitro Boosts remain a solid option for movement speed bursts during fights.
2. Blacksmithing — Allows you to add an additional socket to your gloves and bracers with Socket Gloves and Socket Bracer. While this is about the same stats gain as most other professions early on, once epic gems are introduced this profession becomes much stronger.
