Arms / Fury Warrior Specs
Let's start with the absolute must have talents regardless of spec and play style:
- Cruelty – 5% crit. 1st tier of Fury.
- Armored to the Teeth – 3 AP for every 180 armor you have. We wear plate, about time we put all that armor to use.
- Impale - 20% increased crit damage from specials.
- Deep Wounds – 48% of weapon damage as an unmitigable dot over 6 seconds and it rolls so none of your crits are “wasted”
- Two-Handed Weapon Specialization – 6% increased damage done by two-handed weapons.
Those five talents that are absolutely essential in any PvP or PvE build.
Next, let's talk Fury specs. Honestly, I don't think a lot has changed. The big, BIG thing to note, though, is the removal of Weapon Mastery from the fury tree. For us Furies, it means it's time to boost up that expertise. In the old cap, you only had to get to 18 expertise, which equated to about 148 expertise rating. Now, without the benefits of Weapon Mastery, you need to get to 26 expertise, which is 214 expertise rating. That's a sizable amount more of expertise you will need, and after getting hit capped for yellow damage, expertise is the next thing you want capped.
Seriously, cap expertise. Do it now before you forget.
Anyhow, here is what I went with spec wise. It's pretty standard up and down. You have a few play points here and there. Like if you want to look cool on the trash DPS meters you could get Improved Cleave, but I didn't bother. Many of the points in arms are negotiable as well.
