Fury Warrior leveling guide
Fury is the fastest Warrior spec in Outland when your weapons are good.
Bloodthirst and
Whirlwind hit hard,
Flurry and
Rampage keep the damage climbing during a fight, and
Sweeping Strikes turns two enemies into a quick kill. It needs two decent one-handed weapons, so pick up every upgrade that quests offer.
Strengths and weaknesses
- The highest damage of the Warrior specs with good weapons.
- Sweeping Strikes and Whirlwind handle two or three enemies well.
- Rampage adds attack power in every longer fight.
- Takes more damage than Arms and suffers badly from weak weapons.
