Warrior Tanking

[bokchoykn]

I agree. However I know a lot of people have trouble remembering to use foresight while keeping their rotation going. It is probably better for them to get used on cooldown no matter what than to not get used at all because the WAR does have a lot going on just maintaining their rotations.

In many fights, particularly Extreme Primals, the Warrior spends a lot of time NOT tanking.Your proposed macros would blow your defensive cooldowns during periods where you aren't even being attacked.

I realize that this guide is for Warrior basics and aimed towards novice players, but I don't think any guide should encourage macro shortcuts as a substitute for proper management of cooldowns and skillful play. Guides should encourage proper play, not lazy shortcuts. Warriors should learn how to weave off-GCD cooldowns between their weapon skills and manually activate abilities that fit the situation and not glue abilities together for convenience.

Warriors reading this guide: Every ability should be on its own spot on your hotbar, not glued together with macros. Manually activate each ability appropriately to each situation.
