Warriors are a very powerful class, with the ability to tank or deal significant melee damage. The warrior's Protection tree contains many talents to improve their survivability and generate threat versus monsters. Protection warriors are one of the main tanking classes of the game and are considered the \"classic\" tanking class. (They're also great flag carriers in PvP!)\n\nThey also have two damage-oriented talent trees - Arms and Fury, the latter of which includes the talent Titan's Grip, which allows the warrior to wield two two-handed weapons at the same time. They are capable of strong melee AoE damage with spells such as Cleave, Whirlwind, Bladestorm. A warrior fights while in a specific stance, which affects Rage generation. \n\n

• Protection: Primarily for tanking.
• Fury: Can dual-wield weapons; primarily PvE dps.
• Arms: Strong in PvE; also has good survivability and burst talents for PvP.
• All warriors can buff their raid or group by using a shout, Battle Shout or Commanding Shout.
• Warriors have numerous useful methods of getting to their target in a hurry! All warriors can use Charge to reach an enemy and they also have Intervene, which allows them to intercept a friendly target and protect them from an attack.
• Buffs and Debuffs: Stamina ( Commanding Shout), Attack Power ( Battle Shout), Weakened Armor ( Sunder Armor), Physical Vulnerability ( Colossus Smash), Weakened Blows ( Thunder Clap), and Mortal Wounds ( Mortal Strike, Wild Strike).
• Deep Wounds is automatically applied from Thunder Clap and Mortal Strike.
