Fury Warriors in Dragonflight: Strengths and Weaknesses
In World of Warcraft, the Warrior class comes with three specializations: Arms, Fury, and Protection. The warrior's spending resource is called Rage. All three warrior specs focus on melee-combat fights and require wise rage resource management.
The Fury Warrior represents one of the best DPS classes for Mythic Dungeons and Mythic Raiding in Dragonflight Season 1, providing a high damage output for both single-target and multi-target encounters.
Fury warriors are dual-wielding berserkers, dealing a rapid succession of wild attacks with each weapon. Preferred weapons: dual axes, maces, and swords. As for raid gear, the Warrior shares the Protector Tier Token with Hunters, Shamans, and Monks for legacy content. In the Dragonflight expansion, the Vault of the Incarnates raid, warriors share the Zenith Tier Token with Monks, Rogues and Evokers.
In the table below, we present the Fury spec's strengths and weaknesses:
| Advantages | Disadvantages |
| + Sustainable damage with the set bonus | - Lack of immunity |
| + High mobility with Charge, Intervene, Heroic Leap | - Lack of cheat death mechanic |
| + Battle Shout provides an attack power buff | - Fast-paced rotation |
| + Easy swapping between single target and multitarget damage | |
| + Good personal defensive abilities and a raid-wide defensive cooldown |
How to gear a Fury Warrior
In World of Warcraft, gearing is one of the most important aspects that enhances your character's overall performance by providing massive amounts of stats, armor, procs, and set bonuses. This guide will teach you how to properly gear up for the most challenging content in WoW Dragonflight, Mythic Raiding, and Mythic+ Dungeons.
We'll start with the basics and cover the Fury Warrior's stats priority, check out the tier set bonuses, and finally, the best in slot gear you can get from mythic raids and dungeons.
Fury Warrior stat priority
Regardless of the class and spec you roll into in World of Warcraft, the stats are a key component when gearing up and min-maxing your character for the end-game content. Fury Warriors wear Plate gear with Strength as the main stat. A higher and adequate item level will better impact your character's performance than a perfect stat distribution!
The Fury Warrior stats priority looks like this:
- 1. Strength
- 2. Haste
- 3. Mastery
- 4. Critical Strike
- 5. Versatility
So as a Fury Warrior, you will primarily value item level for Strength as the main stat, then Haste, followed by Mastery, Critical Strike, and Versatility as secondary stats.
In other words: Strength > Haste > Mastery > Critical Strike > Versatility. And here's why:
Strength: Increases all damage done by your warrior class spells, abilities, and auto attacks.
Haste: Compresses the rotation by reducing your global cooldown and the cooldown of your rotational abilities.
Mastery: Increases the damage bonus of Enrage.
Critical Strike: Increases auto-attack rage generation, as well as damage done by abilities, auto attacks, and trinkets.
Versatility: Increases damage and reduces damage taken by half. Unlike Mastery, however, it affects all damage done, including trinkets, potions, and enchantments.
Fury Warrior Tier Set Bonus
To start with, what is a tier set in World of Warcraft?
In WoW, a tier set is a unique class armor set with powerful 2-set and 4-set specific bonuses for each specialization of that particular class. Tier set bonuses change based on the character's active talent specialization, ensuring that the bonus is appropriate and useful to that spec.
So to recap, tier sets are unique pieces of armor that, when equipped simultaneously, provide you with a bonus, different for each spec of the chosen class. This bonus is based on the number of pieces from the set you have equipped, with most tier sets providing bonuses when equipping 2 or 4 pieces.
How to get the Fury Warrior Tier Set in Dragonflight Patch 10.0
There are three ways you can get tier set items in WoW in the Dragonflight expansion:
- Vault of the Incarnates Raid: You can get tier set items from specific bosses in the Vault of the Incarnates raid.
- Revival Catalyst: You can craft Tier armor from non-set pieces of the same item level using the Revival Catalyst crafting system.
- Great Vault: You can obtain tier set items from all activities that normally give Great Vault rewards, such as raiding, Mythic+ dungeons, and PvP.
The fastest way to obtain tier set items is to take advantage of these three sources that can reward you with the Fury Warrior Tier Set items. The best advice is to complete the Vault of the Incarnates raid weekly - this is probably the fastest way to get your hands on the desired tier armor. In case you don't have a team to raid with, complete some Mythic+ Dungeons or some PvP matches.
Mythic dungeons and PvP are highly beneficial because even if you can't drop the set items while participating in these activities, you increase the chances of getting your set items at the Great Vault or the Revival Catalyst console in Thaldraszus. At the revival catalyst console, you can convert the non-set pieces obtained in dungeons or PvP into tier set items.
Let's have a closer look at the Great Vault feature:
And this is what the Revival Catalyst looks like:
Back to our Fury Warrior Tier Set. Now that you learned how to obtain the tier set, let's see some set bonuses and particularities, shall we?
The Fury Warrior Tier set is called Stones of the Walking Mountain. It comes with the following bonuses for two pieces and four pieces equipped:
- 2-Set: - Execute's chance to critically strike increased by 10%.
- 4-Set: - Sudden Death's chance to reset the cooldown of Execute and make it usable on any target, regardless of health, is greatly increased.
In the table below, we present you the sources for Fury Warrior Tier Set items:
| Slot | Tier Piece | Source |
| Helm | Casque of the Walking Mountain | Raszageth |
| Shoulders | Peaks of the Walking Mountain | Broodkeeper Diurna |
| Chest | Husk of the Walking Mountain | Kurog Grimtotem |
| Gloves | Gauntlets of the Walking Mountain | Dathea, Ascended |
| Legs | Poleyns of the Walking Mountain | Sennarth |
The remaining tier set items (Cloak, Wrists, Waist, and Boots) can be obtained by using the Revival Catalyst in Thaldraszus.
As previously stated, you unlock the tier set bonuses for your Fury Warrior when you equip any two or four pieces of the Stones of the Walking Mountain set. For itemization and build optimization, your four pieces of tier set as a Fury Warrior will be the Helm, Shoulders, Gloves, and Legs.
