Mythic+ Gear BiS List for Fury Warrior

This list contains the best gear dropping specifically from Mythic+ dungeons in Season 3 of The War Within. This makes them more easily farmable, though at a lower item level than what is available from Mythic Raid or The Great Vault, so they are not necessarily the absolute best drops or the best consolidated set of gear.

Offhand Weapon	Circuit Breaker (710)	Operation: Floodgate
Helm	Wing Commander's Helmet (710)	Mythic+ Halls of Atonement

New in Patch 11.2 is an artifact cloak obtained during the Ghosts of K'aresh quest chain! The Reshii Wraps begin at item level 694 and progressing to 730 over the course of the season, the cloak also features a unique role-based proc and a single Fiber Socket allowing customization over its secondary statistics. There are no other non-cosmetic cloaks in Season 3, so the Reshii Wraps should always be worn.

As a DPS, the cloak will proc a moderate amount of damage split between enemies, increasing against lower health targets. This effect is further enhanced by two specific items available within Manaforge Omega:

• Interloper's Plated Sabatons - Boots from The Soul Hunters that significantly increase the proc rate of the cloak effect, from +20% with LFR boots, up to +50% on the Mythic version.
• Band of the Shattered Soul - Ring from Dimensius The All Devouring that provides a small defensive element to the cloak procs, which can have some circumstantial value on specific encounters, but is not particularly necessary to have.

The unique Fiber Socket on the Reshii Wraps allows customizing its secondary stats with swappable fibers purchased at Rare quality from Hashim on K'aresh, or crafted at Epic quality by Tailoring.

• Both Mountain Thane and Slayer should prioritize Energizing Fiber / Pure Energizing Fiber for Mastery or Dexterous Fiber / Pure Dexterous Fiber for Versatility.

For more information on acquiring the Cloak, check our dedicated page for more details:

Throughout this page, we regularly refer to the importance of simming yourself on Raidbots, as it is an indispensable aspect of optimizing your character.

While we do offer generic sim charts for Trinkets, this should not be a replacement for simming yourself, at least not if you want to minmax sub-1%!

If you are new to simming and Raidbots, check out our detailed guide below.

Despite the delay in acquiring two sparks, Fury Warriors are well served by crafting a weapon with Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension, paired with Writhing Armor Banding on Bracers, which due to the lack of cantrip weapons can serve them well throughout the entire season.

Some players may opt for 2x Duskthread Lining on Belt and Bracers, due to Ascension being more difficult to maximize in Mythic+ content, though it is generally advised to swap to this later in the season, after having acquired suitable weapons.

• Fury Warriors should generally craft Haste/Mastery onto their gear, though at higher gear levels, Versatility often overtakes Haste. While stat weights may change depending on what gear you currently have available, it is easier to gear around your crafts than to continually recraft your gear.

Note that it is highly recommended not to craft anything until it is felt as though it is needed, generally right before you head into serious raid or Mythic+ progression. The longer you can wait with crafting, the better information you, and this guide, will have on the best Crafts. Crafting early and then having the recommendation change due to unexpected tuning is always a possibility, and the goal should be to avoid this happening as much as possible.

1. Everforged Greataxe — currently the best embellishment.
2. Everforged Vambraces — doubles the value of Ascension, only spending one spark on a weaker gear slot.
3. Next, fill low-item level holes in your gear, preferring weapons or pieces of gear you are not likely to replace quickly.
4. At this point, you are mostly done crafting. You can spend future Sparks on off-spec items, alternatively statted crafts for different situations, and so on.

You will be able to upgrade your items via Crests such as Gilded Undermine Crest. Once you have upgraded a slot to a certain item level, upgrading other items of that slot to that item level is free.

When you upgrade with Crests, you should think of it as upgrading slots and not items.

Additionally, since Crests are a limited resource, you will want to obtain the highest item-level possible before upgrading a given slot, as this means you will spend fewer Crests on that slot in total. If you are at all capable of doing a +9 Dungeon, for example, it would be a VERY bad idea to upgrade an item from a +8 Dungeon, as those are wasted Crests you may not get back for a very long time.

We see a ton of players, even at a high level, mess up their upgrade priorities, and upgrading prematurely. Getting this right will put you far ahead of most players.

Below is the slot priority you should upgrade your items in. If you ever want to deviate from this, you should have a very good reason.

1. Weapons
2. Trinkets
3. Helm/Chest/Legs
4. Shoulders/Gloves/Belt/Boots
5. Rings and Necks
6. Cloaks and Bracers

Note that exceptions are possible, such as special items that have more Item Level scaling than their slot would imply.

New in Season 3, tier set bonuses are now separated by hero talents instead of traditional specializations. This still results in three seperate groups of bonuses, but instead of distinct Arms, Fury, and Protection sets, they are now tailored to Colossus, Mountain Thane, and Slayer.

• Warrior Slayer 11.2 Class Set 2pc — Execute damage increased by 10% and Executes from Sudden Death have a 10% chance per stack of Overwhelmed on the target to trigger a Slayer's Strike at 100% effectiveness. Stacking up to a 100% chance to trigger a Slayer's Strike, this greatly enhances the single target damage capability of Execute, while also leading to more Sudden Death procs.
• Warrior Slayer 11.2 Class Set 4pc — Raging Blow damage increased by 10% and Raging Blow has a 2% chance per stack of Overwhelmed on the target to trigger Reap the Storm at 150% effectiveness. Gives Raging Blow up to a 10% chance to trigger Reap, mirroring that of Bloodthirst, though this chance does not scale up when hitting multiple targets.
• Warrior Mountain Thane 11.2 Class Set 2pc — Thunder Blast has a 35% chance to call down 5 Ionizing Strikes on affected targets. Each strike deals (150% of Attack Power) Nature damage. Calls down a total of five strikes, regardless of how many targets there are to hit.
• Warrior Mountain Thane 11.2 Class Set 4pc — Ionizing Strikes deal 100% more damage and when you trigger Ionizing Strikes, you gain a charge of Thunder Blast and your next Thunder Blast deals 100% additional damage. In addition to majorly increasing the damage of both Ionizing Strikes and Thunder Blast, these procs will also reset the cooldown of Thunder Blast, allowing it to be chain cast.

Both bonuses are relatively passive in that they do not add anything that needs to be explicitly kept track of, though they do result in increased use of Sudden Death, Bladestorm, and Thunder Blast, contributing to a pronounced difference in feel between seasons 2 and 3.

You only need 4 pieces out of 5 to get both set bonuses, so we recommend you get all items except for the Helm, and check out the BiS List for more information. Remember that you can use the Matrix Catalyst to convert regular items (from Mythic+, for example) into Tier pieces.

Added in Patch 11.1.7, the Durable Information Securing Container remains a useful option at the start of Season 3, though it will ultimately be replaced by strong Myth track item level gear.

While the belt lacks secondary stats, they are made up for with an innate socket and the choice between 9 different special effects, each deterministically unlocked by completing various delves. Once unlocked, these effects can be swapped at will simply by right-clicking on the belt to pull up a selection menu.

These are the recommended special effects for each type of content:

• For single target raid encounters: Critical Chain or Electric Current
• For Mythic+ and multitarget encounters: Critical Chain
• For open world and delve content: Critical Chain
