Overview

Warriors are melee fighters who combine strength, leadership, and a vast knowledge of arms and armor. Highly trained in the art of weaponry, they rely on heavy armor, shields, and battle prowess to protect themselves and their allies, and they lead the charge into battle. Warriors can be tanks or melee damage dealers, and they are the only class open to every playable race in Classic.

Role and Resources

Warriors are a pure melee class that serves as a frontline tank or a melee damage dealer. They use rage, a resource that starts empty, builds by dealing and taking damage, and fades when out of combat. Warriors switch between three stances, each of which changes which abilities are available.

Armor and Weapons

Warriors wear cloth, leather, and mail, and gain the ability to wear plate armor at level 40. They can use shields. Warriors can train in nearly every weapon: daggers, fist weapons, staves, polearms, and one-handed and two-handed swords, axes, and maces. They can also dual wield and use ranged weapons, including bows, crossbows, guns, and thrown weapons.

Hover over a talent, or tap it, to see what it does. Copy link saves the build you have made.
