Fury Warrior Mythic+ Guide for The War Within Season 1
In this guide, we will talk about getting the most out of your Warrior inMythic+ dungeons, including the best way to set up your character, how yourrotation may change, and tips and tricks for using your abilities in the mostoptimal way.

Fury Warrior in The War Within Mythic+
Between Odyn's Fury, Thunderous Roar, and Bladestorm, Fury Warrior is an extremely bursty AoEclass, though it lacks sustained damage after using all of its cooldowns.Fortunately, they have a relatively short cooldown, allowing at least partialburst during nearly every pull.
Following the Patch 11.0.5 changes, Mountain Thane is now much morecompetitive, offering less instant burst but much greater sustainedmultitarget damage than Slayer. Combined with its already better survivabilitybonuses, this places Thane in a very strong position, particularly for higherlevel Mythic+ dungeons.

Best Mythic+ Talents for Fury Warrior in The War Within
This build is recommended for any level of Mythic+, focusing on burst AoE damage while still bringing a strong amount of priority damage during cooldowns.
The reason for going Slayer over Mountain Thane is significantly faster burst damage during cooldowns, as well as a generally smoother rotation allowing more freedom to focus on other mechanics.
2.1.
Flexible Talents
Mythic+ builds are very tight on talent points, so while there are a few changes that can be made to suit personalpreference, they all come at a noticeable loss in other areas:
- Overwhelming Rage can be reduced to a single point with very little loss, since Rage pooling is not as important to multitarget builds.
- Second Wind or Bounding Stride are the main talent swaps, though both are useful in their own right. If you find yourself not using Storm Bolt particularly often due to the more frequent availability of Shockwave, it and Leeching Strikes may also be dropped.
- Intimidating Shout is the main pick for many players, offering more Crowd Control, though it is rarely needed thanks to the low cooldown on Shockwave via Rumbling Earth.
- Honed Reflexes allows several utility abilities to be used slightly more often, though the amount is so small, it is often difficult to ascertain whether it will have any value at all.
- Fast Footwork and Intervene are common picks for increased mobility.
- Seismic Reverberation is a technical damage increase, but Whirlwind contributes so little damage that it is not really worth the talent point.
- Uproar is an almost even trade with Armored to the Teeth in multitarget, though reducing priority damage without any real upside.
- Endurance Training is very nice but also very expensive to take in terms of lost damage due to competing against powerful Tier 3 talents.

Best Mythic+ Talents for Fury Warrior in The War Within
This build is recommended for higher levels of Mythic+, focusing on much greater sustained multitarget, with nearly equal single target to Slayer multitarget builds.
The reason for going Mountain Thane over Slayer is increased raw multitarget damage and survivability, though it does require sustained combat to really show its value. For this reason, lower keys in which very large pulls are made and adds are burst down quickly may not be best suited for Mountain Thane.
2.1.
Flexible Talents
Mythic+ builds are already tight on talent points, and Mountain Thane is even more so due to using Thunder Clap, so while there are a few changes that can be made to suit personal personalpreference, they all come at a noticeable loss in other areas:
- Overwhelming Rage can be reduced to a single point with very little loss, since Rage pooling is not as important to multitarget builds.
- Crackling Thunder does not provide any direct damage and, therefore, can be dropped if necessary, though the increased range is very useful in ensuring spread-out groups are all hit.
- Leeching Strikes and Storm Bolt may both be dropped in order to take Intervene, though the other point also needs to be put back into the first tier of talents.
- Intimidating Shout is the main pick for many players, offering more Crowd Control, though it is rarely needed thanks to the low cooldown on Shockwave via Rumbling Earth.
- Honed Reflexes allows several utility abilities to be used slightly more often, though the amount is so small, it is often difficult to ascertain whether it will have any value at all.
- Fast Footwork and Intervene are common picks for increased mobility.
- Seismic Reverberation is a technical damage increase, but Whirlwind contributes so little damage that it is not really worth the talent point.
- Uproar is an almost even trade with Armored to the Teeth in multitarget, though reducing priority damage without any real upside.

Mythic+ Utility for Fury Warrior in The War Within Season 1

Utility of Fury Warrior in The War Within
Interrupts, Stuns, Stops, and SlowsOther Utility
3.1.
Interrupts, Stuns, Stops, and Slows
Pummel is the Warrior version of kick, frequently used in Mythic+to stop enemy casts for the benefit of the group and especially the tank.Because it is sometimes necessary to interrupt targets other than the one youare actively attacking, it is highly recommended to use a focus ormouseover macro.
Slayer has the unique ability to use Pummel during Bladestorm,which normally cannot be done.
- /cast [@focus,exists,nodead][@mouseover,exists,nodead] [] Interrupt
This macro will kick your focus target if you have one, mouseover if you haveno Focus target, and your primary target if you have neither of those.
To quickly set a focus target in hectic scenarios, we also recommend aFocus Mouseover macro.
- /focus [@mouseover]
Make sure that your UI shows your Focus Target's casts clearly so that youare always able to kick it on cooldown or in coordination with the rest of yourgroup.
Not technically an interrupt, Spell Reflection is an incrediblypowerful personal tool, which can deflect or reflect the damage and negativeeffect of many enemy spells, but only when they are cast on the Warrior.
4.
Stuns, "Stops" and Slows
Storm Bolt and Shockwave are single and multitarget stuns,often called "stops" due to their use in stopping enemy actions. Easier totalent into than the past; these are core talents in any Mythic+ build.
Intimidating Shout is another AoE stop, fearing targets insteadof stunning them. This has several limitations, causing targets to run awayand potentially call allies, as well as some targets being immune to thecondition outright. It is also limited to five targets, so there are timeswhen it may not necessarily stop all of the enemies you want it to. Becauseof this, the talent is not always taken in Mythic+ builds, but can be added asdesired.
Piercing Howl and Crackling Thunder can both be used as AoEslows, though this is not something that is regularly needed in most content. Hamstring is the non-talented, single-target alternative, which istypically enough to cover any slowing needs.
3.2.
Other Utility
Battle Shout increases the damage output of all melee classes andHunters by 5% and should always be active.
Rallying Cry is a group-wide defensive cooldown, useful in helpingyourself or allies survive incoming damage.
Berserker Rage and Berserker Shout removes fear anddisorient effects, which are not very common in the modern game. The shoutversion applies to allies but suffers several limitations: requiring an extratalent point, having a very limited range that often misses casters, and onlyable to be used reactively after the fear effect has been applied rather thanpre-emptively immuning it. As a result, it is rarely used.

Dungeon Tips and Tricks for Fury Warrior for The War Within Season 1
Unlike many classes, Warriors have very few specialized tricks to handlevarious mechanics, being mainly focused on personal damage and defense. Mostof the tips and tricks in this section will, therefore, cover which spells maybe negated or sent back toward the attacker using Spell Reflection.
Rather than trying to memorize all of these spells, it is highlyrecommended to simply use the SpellReflect Essentials WeakAura to track them for you.

4.1.
Bosses
- Warriors can use Heroic Leap to avoid having to stand in Grasping Blood at all, though the timing is very tight. A muchmore reliable strategy is to leap into the blood and then use Storm Bolt orShockwave on the newly formed mob to break themselves out once the pull hasended.

Bosses
- Splice can be reflected, while Umbral Weave will bedeflected and prevent the root. It is typically better to reflect Splice, butbecause it is cast twice per cycle, the timing is very tight: try to pre-castSpell Reflect just before the first Splice is cast in order for the cooldownto be available again before the second.

Affix Guide for Fury Warrior in The War Within
Affix: AscendantAffix: DevourAffix: OblivionAffix: Voidbound
5.1.
Ascendant Affix Management for Fury Warrior
Shockwave with Rumbling Earth should be availablefrequently enough to handle this mechanic, with backup Pummel or Storm Bolt as needed. Intimidating Shout can be taken as well,but should not be necessary and may not reliably affect the correct targets inlarger pulls.
5.2.
Devour Affix Management for Fury Warrior
Bitter Immunity will remove the debuff, though it is not a greatstrategy as the affix happens much more frequently than the cooldown allows,which means healers will still need a plan to cover the other sets. This oftenresults in holding the cooldown for emergencies that rarely ever come,effectively wasting the talent point. Instead, simply using Impending Victory will help reduce the healing burden enough toquickly remove the debuff.
5.3.
Oblivion Affix Management for Fury Warrior
Smart use of Charge and Heroic Leap can help reach Shattered Essence crystals more quickly, but proper positioning shouldbe all that is needed.
5.4.
Voidbound Affix Management for Fury Warrior
There's no particular trick here; simply kill the mob as quickly aspossible to gain its buff!

How To Sim Mythic+ for Fury Warrior
6.1.
MDT Sim
MDT Sim is the best way to sim Mythic+ for Fury Warrior. It allows you to sim an entire dungeon, pull-by-pull, withappropriate HP amounts and so on. In this way, you get a full picture within a single sim, of various target counts and durations. I havecreated a route that I feel is a good "average" of all dungeons that you can use. Drop thecontents of the Pastebin into your Raidbots > SimC Expert Mode at the bottom > 'Footer'. Detailed instructions and more info on MDT Sim canbe found on the MDT Sim Wago page.
