Leveling a warrior as my alt, just wondering any tips for SoD as I remember Warrior in era was a punisher to level.
Also best runes?, I’m only level 7 atm but have victory rush.
its easier than most classes. just feed weapons to level it. Victory Rush is op. Should be able to 2-3 shot most things if you always have a good weapon. SoD is warrior meta, they are gods from level 1, not 60 anymore at least in pve.
victory rush is great for lvling. I would charge into the 4 packs of gnolls when they were green level and kill them one at a time. use victory rush after each kill and finish with like 70% HP by the time they all died.
What. Literally every class has an easier time leveling than warrior does.
What. Victory rush is nice to have. A 10% heal is okay, its damage is okay. People like to think its better than it really is, and might save you in a pinch, but it isnt overpowered by any stretch.
Get a good 2h, keep up on your first aid, and pray you dont get a string of miss/parries. Sword/board leveling is a trap.
Warriors live and die by their gear, but dont waste all your gold on upgrades every other level.
What nonsense are you spouting? Warriors are the worst class to level up and are at literally the bottom. Even priests have a better time leveling up as they can just heal themselves.
It becomes evidently clear that you cannot pull more than 3 mobs max and near to impossible to solo elites. Moving on though…
Tips:
-
get some kind of ranged weapon to tag mobs so you arent charging it just to die because as mentioned before, you will die if you pull more than 3 mobs (sometimes even 2 mobs depending on level difference).
-
invest in green quality weapon every couple of levels because at these lower level brackets, your weapon makes a big difference in dps.
-
level up first aid because that is going to be your best friend for leveling
-
conserve your rage in between pulls. For example, if the mob you are attacking is about to die in one auto, dont waste your rage on it, save your rage for the next mob you are about to kill and just let the auto kill it.
-
get some kind of weak aura for battle shout because its on a really short timer like 2mins max
-
weapon swing timer add on
-
not important right now but eventually youll need to learn how to stance dance when next phase hits and you learn berserker stance. (Start incorporating stance changing into macros. For example, warrior tanks needing to be in Battle stance (if they dont have Warbringer rune engraved).
Grind lower level monsters, warriors chew up anything lower level with a passion.

you are using vanilla data and have clearly not played SoD as a warrior. victory rush is amazing for specifically pulling groups of mobs.
I have a 25 warrior alt as well dummy. Victory rush serves only one purpose and that is for leveling, even then the other runes/future runes will be a better option. Outside of leveling, it is a trash rune and wont be used by warriors in dungeon/raid content. If they really wanted to make it a good rune, they wouldve never locked it behind only being usable after killing a mob and just put it on a timer cd.
this topic is discussing warrior leveling… what are you arguing for then? Victory Rush is without a doubt better for leveling than most runes, no matter your spec
Warrior has been quite fun to level. I definitely feel strong even as a class with no self-heal. Definitely use your defensive abilities if you pull a group, then focus damage every time. Don’t sleep on hamstring so more enemies don’t come. First-Aid is great to have, keep some health potions as well for emergencies. Make sure your weapon is up-to-date, I have been using a 2h constantly so enemies don’t take a lot of time to die.
