Warrior Class Overview

Last updated on Sep 29, 2019 at 12:10 by Blainie 1 comment

Warriors are the melee-centered class. These characters are as tough as nails and masters of weaponry and tactics. The special abilities of the warrior are naturally combat-oriented.

If you were looking for TBC Classic advice, please refer to our TBC Classic Warrior class overview.

1.

Races for Warriors

Warriors can be played as any race on both the Alliance and Horde. They are the only class that can do this.

2.

Warrior Specializations

Warriors have 3 talent specializations: Arms, Fury, and Protection.

  • Arms — This specialization capitalises on the prowess of Warriors and their mastery of weapons, ensuring that no movement is wasted in combat, regardless of the weapon chosen.
  • Fury — Warriors are known for their herculean strength and, as expected, Fury amplifies that to superhuman levels as they shrug off damage that would bring other classes to their knees.
  • Protection — This specialization utilises the combat experience of the Warrior to shield their allies and ensure they take the brunt of the party's damage.
