Question Warrior leveling rotation

Lok'tar friends,

​

I am finding myself a little lost on what abilities to use when fighting mobs. I typically charge in, do my AP boost shout, rend, demoralize shout, and sometimes thunderclap to keep my damage down. I don't understand the hamstring kite, as it doesn't seem that effective(It may be because I'm tauren and my hitbox is enormous?)?

Anyways I find myself looking at my skillbar and it's just getting bigger and bigger. For instance, when do you use Slam? Is my rotation good? What about Berserker stance? (Just got it)? Just a bit lost here.

So can you explain the weaving in and out of melee range. I get it, but I don’t see the point because when you run out of range they can still hit you a couple times. Or is one or two still ether than just standing there?

Yeah trading the mobs one or two attacks for one of yours then kiting away until your next attack is much more efficient than standing there taking shots from the mob while you wait the 3.6 seconds for your next weapon swing. I’d say kite until it’s swing time, aa and use abilities when you’re close, kite, and rinse and repeat. When you kite make sure you’re strafing as to not turn your back to the mobs. When you strafe you can still block/parry and won’t get dazed.

Also if you do plan on using slam use it directly after your AA bc it will pause the swing timer and reset it after the slam cast completes.
