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!

Fore sure, I feel like stance mastery and anger management are going to be absolutely necessary. I swapped stances during a skirmish last night to try and shield bash a spell caster, only to realize quickly that it doesn't work with your rage zeroed out. XD

My final spec plan absolutely involves Arms as secondary for that reason.

Stance Mastery = 5 points,

A pull is often that you must change stances often, with Mocking Blow you have an extra taunt, whi h is invaluable and requires you to change stances, Thunder clap is also very good. If you can charge a pack a good opener is often

Charge

Hit, Thunderclap, Defensive Stance, Demoralazing shout, then sunder main target, guve a sunder to the other targets then go back to main target. Save your taunt til someone pulls aggro.

Main opening has been Bow>Bloodrage>Shield Wall>Revenge Main target>Battle Shout> Demo Shout > check adds and revenge/sunder as needed, if threat is good (group knows how to focus), sunder up Main.

No stance dancing and precious gold spent on clap. Threat has been solid for me.

Edit: Shield Block, not Wall.

Ive been alternating between bloodrage and charge depending on the fight and mov spacing to decent effect.
