While the Warrior is easy and straight-forward to play in PvE, handling your foes in PvP is a whole other beast. You want to improve your player versus player performance? Then your first step is to the the Warriors role in the bigger picture.
You see, many people make the mistake of looking at their character as an isolated hero on the battlefield. Big mistate!
This quick warrior guide will give you an impression of the bigger picture and the part that your Warrior plays in it.
The Warrior plays a very unique role on the battlefield. If you approach the battle from this strategic perspective, your odds of dominating will increase tenfold.
The first foundation to a greater Warrior PvP potential is having a PvP gear with high resilence rating. PvP and PvP are very different when it comes to gear, as every Warrior guide can tell you. It’s not about Defense or Block Rating. A raid tank is great for PvE, but helpless on the battlegrounds.
Next, become an expert of your stances. It’s crucial to react quickly and without thinking when you are in a tight situation. You need to think and act really fast. Stun your enemies whenever you can and don’t let them get away from you.
So there you have it.
I know this sounds like very basic knowledge, but ever player needs to get his basics dialed. In the end, it’s always the basics that make or break anything worthwhile.
Here’s your action plan to designing a warrior that’s going to dominate in PvP:
#1 – First of all, get a proven PvP talent spec that fits your playing style.
#2 – Get your Warrior spec in order with the right glyphs and gear. Remember: Resilience all the way! I also recommend you to write down a list of gear you want to get and how to aquire it asap.
#3 – Make yourself familiar with a solid Warrior PvP guide, but don’t get hung up with theoretical studying. Visit battlefields and the arena as often as you can to get the real, practical experience. And don’t be frustrated if you lose in the beginning, that’s what everyone does before they become champions.
