Hey, I am looking for some help!
When I was doing a cos normal, I noticed how the other fury warriors all opened with a dps of 35-45k and would sustain around 19-21k
However when I do my opener, I can only get 24-27k dps ish and sustain slightly worse numbers.
I run dragon roar, siegebreaker, carnage, sudden death, and Endless rage
My traits are 2 reckless flurry, simmering rage, unbridled ferocity, infinite fury, and cold steel hot temepred
What should my opening rotation be?
Recklessness->charge->Siegebreaker->(BT if your auto attacks miss and you cannot rampage)->Rampage->Raging Blow->Bloodthirst->Rampage->Dragons Roar->Bloodthirst->Rampage->Raging Blow
Use an execute proc immediately unless you can rampage.
If you get an execute or Raging Blow proc, use them and push the list down one space.
Also worth noting, Riddz had 15 ilvl, 4 sockets, 30 and 25 ilvls on weapons, 15/0/15 ilvls on azerite, and better trinkets.
Yes in that session there were 2 warrior doing more dps than me. It just that the ranged tank was dying than other people would start dying(including me)! They both opened super high dps and did way more dps.
I remeber the other warrior having like 15% of his/her dmg in the cold steel hot temper trait. Their dps wasnt as good as riddz but still better than mine.
I will try this opener with the training dummy!
Thanks!
Cold Steel Hot Blood X 3 with Swirling Sand is nice, gives you the feel of a affliction lock back in legion where you can actually watch your health bar go up on it’s own. I still havn’t got the pieces for it. I’m banking for season 3 now but ![:frowning:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/frowning.png?v=6" ":frowning:")
So adjusted by ilvl, you parsed considerably better than Riddz and the other warrior appears to have dirt napped. Don’t compare yourself to them. As for how you can do better, Drez gave you the opener, memorize it, practice it, do it.
It looks like you double charged at the beginning. You need to try and predict where the boss is going to be tanked, and the path they’ll be taking to get there, which depends a lot on the tank’s class and how they’ll pull. I love warrior tanks for this because, they’re pretty much always going to charge at some point in the opening moments and I can just marry mine up with theirs. Regardless, you need to aim and time your charge so you’re not chasing the boss around, wasting valuable dps time (especially when recklessness and/or siegebreaker are ticking!) Standing perpendicular to the tank and the boss so you charge in at an angle can help a lot. I like to start on the sliver stack and charge from there, because casters can go to hell. Regardless, it takes experience and practice, especially when dealing with pug tanks.
Head to https://www.wowhead.com/fury-warrior-rotation-guide and study up the rotation again. You’re prioritizing raging blow in general way too high. A good set of weak auras can help with that.
Don’t use arcane torrent if you’re within 8 yards of the mob. Just whirlwind. You can use it during downtime or in the countdown before the pull.
If you’re looking at the kill log, that’s not a double charge. There’s 2 parts to charge, the initial cast that roots+generates rage, and the second part that does damage when you reach the target.
Oh I totally forgot to mention in that opener, with Torrent you never need to worry about your AA’s missing or not. Regardless of whether they do or not, the rage from Torrent will give you enough to rampage immediately after Siegebreaker.
I derped. But the charging advice stands for a theoretical person screwing up their opening charge!
Thanks guys I learned a few things!
Never thought to torrent before fight. I always used raging blow twice before bloodthirst but it looks like that’s not the way to go.
Im having a tough time transitioning from arms to fury (Played arms all uldir) but I will practice this new knowledge on a dummy!
When you establish your best gearset from a Top Gear sim, you can run the same set through a quick sim on a target dummy fight style. You should be able to reliably hit that sim when hitting a dummy.
