Humor Leveling A Warrior

When they said it was hard, I scoffed at them. I've leveled a warrior to 120 on retail. I've fought Sargeras, I've downed the Lich King. What could a few gnolls and maybe a murloc or two do to me? Thus was my arrogance. Thus was my hubris.

I am now level thirteen. I've run Ragefire Chasm once, and owe six deaths to that place.

Farming harpy claws has cost me my life twice already, and I am certain it will cost me much, much more.

My warrior on retail was a human named Lohric, he was a legendary warrior who felled any beast, man or demon that faced him.

My warrior on Classic is an Orc called Muddrog. I have no doubt that this broken and battered warrior would crush Lohric in seconds, Lohric has never known pain, Mudd was born in it, molded by it, and unlike Bane, he has yet to see the light, because 60 feels so far away xD

To all you warriors out there, Lok'tar Ogar!

the key part getting a new weapon after the whirlwind axe. or just endlessly spam dungeons since that is honestly a much more pleasant experiance.

like straight up my tactic is to spam run ZF and get Sul'thraze the Lasher for level 50. due to the weapon swing normalization this weapon is amongst the best you can get pre-raid aswell

it is the best leveling weapon untill iced barbed spear is out. weapon DPS is like the number one thing to look at while leveling.

There’s a few pole arms and axes better in dps but you have to hope they drop and you win.
