I love classic and have run a protection warrior since 2005. I made one for the Anniversary servers and have been leveling up. As of this post, I’m level 48 and this is what I’m using to tank dungeons while spamming.
When I hit 60, I’m going to make a Deep Prot and Fury Prot macro. This is for leveling dungeons ATM.
This is a 2H Prot/Arms setup for tanking. You’re going to maintain threat mostly via Mortal Strike and Cleave. Sunder as needed on a separate keybind. Sunder is a highly inefficent method of maintaining threat and should only be used on bosses and when you really need it for pulls. It’ll automatically hit revenge on proc.
If you toss on a Shield, you will automatically Shield Slam in ST and Shield Block in AoE.
Assuming you’re in Battle Stance from charging in, if you start the ST sequence it’ll automatically Sunder Armor once then swap to defensive stance and do it’s rotation. If you’re in AoE, it’ll swap to berserker stance, whirlwind, then go to defensive stance.
How I play this: I charge in (with as much rage as possible) and let it go through the sequence. As I need it, I hit CTRL on AoE to WW, and continue on. When the last mob is up and around 70%, I hit my Charge macro to swap back to Battle Stance to pool rage. The macro otherwise attempts to stay in defensive stance the entire time. You’ll need 55 rage to have the Sweeping Strikes/Whirlwind combo go off immediately.
If you’d like to buy me a cup of coffee, I’d appreciate it. https://ko-fi.com/orbalisk
Basic ST rotation is:
- Charge
- Sunder x1
- Mortal Strike
- Shield Bash (if equipped)
Basic AoE rotation is:
- Charge
- Sweeping Strikes
- Whirlwind
- Cleave
- Shield Block (if equipped)
If you hit CTRL, it will Whirlwind and go back to Defensive Stance
Modifiers:
Single Target:
Shift: Shield Bash
Alt: Battle Shout
Ctrl: Sunder Armor
AoE Target:
