[Guide] Warrior Tanking Compendium 2.0 (Lvl 50)

[Kaalan]

Vengeance is 15 sec, not 30.
And the health returned from is ridiculous, the only decent use of vengeance is as a wrath manager.

Thanks. I must have mixed the time up with the Wrath buff. I'll double check, and then make the change.

While the health returned from Vengeance stacked with Bloodbath is very small, it is consistant (always 25% of a 50 Potency hit). So if you have 6 mobs doing light damage, then it's a great health buffer, that also adds enmity to those mobs hitting you.

30 strength gives about 3.8% DPS. I really don't get why people keep thinking it's worthwhile, let alone ''key'' to warrior success.

Here is a list of benefits with a comparision as to why I think STR is important for Warrior. This deals mainly with "Spike Damage" that Warrior will receive.

STR 308 vs 360

Berserk - "Increase Attack Power by 50%"

Attack Power 462 vs 540

Second Wind "Heal Potency based on Attack Power"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While you don't want to neglect your HP Pool (VIT) you also want to be able to reduce your overall spike damage received through self heals. So there definitely is a balancing act there.

I personally prefer Featherfoot over Second Wind because the HP healed isn't that great, I also like to take Flash as it's good for crowd control when positioning isn't perfect for Overpower.

More information on Featherfoot's utility would be greatly appreciated. I like it too, but because Second Wind has a guaranteed return effect I decided to go with it.

Flash is also a very useful skill. I have been working Infuriate + Steel Cyclone into my own rotation to open a spot for the other cross class skills, but Flash is an invaluable back-up until it's perfected.
