Welcome to our WoW Classic Level 19 Warrior Best in Slot Gear Guide. On this page you will find out exactly what gear you will need to obtain to be prepared to dominate in PvP on lvl 19. We also show you alternatives for every piece of gear since some items are very hard to obtain. A Classic World of Warcraft 1.12 guide by Taladril. Here is the most up-to-date warrior tank gear list available. It was generated mathematically as well as with PTR simulations to be able to provide an accurate breakdown of the value of avoidance, mitigation, and threat in a raiding environment. 'Edited few previously wrong numbers' Player receives 1 rage per 30 damage dealt Player receivves 1 rage per 90 damage taken Using a speed 1.3 weapon / 37-70dmg / 41.2 DPS grants you avg 2 - 5 rage per hit, while damage is around 80 - 100 per hit. Filming and testing was done on Feel free to leave questions or suggestions in the comments.

While leveling a Warrior to 60 is a tough challenge, players who manage to do it are rewarded with a Class that has the most potential in the game (both for Tanking and Damage Dealing). For the most part, Fury Warriors top DPS meters in Classic and scale very well with Gear, which means that they get even better as the game progresses through Raid Tiers. However, the fact that the Class does well in the End-Game is wide known, which results in an abundance of Warriors and potentially a substantial difficulty in finding a strong Raiding Guild. Another side effect of Warrior's popularity and clearly visible strength is the fact that solid gear is hard to get, as competition for it is always fierce (there will be multiple Fury Warriors in every Raid and all of them will want exact same items). If you want to main a Fury Warrior, you have to be one of the best Fury Warriors out there, otherwise, you will drown in a sea of other Rage users.

Pros	Cons
Scales very well with Gear	High Gear dependence (badly geared Warrior deals rather low DPS)
Very high DPS potential, especially with proper itemization	Very slow and difficult to level solo
Can act as an Off-Tank in Raids and as the Main Tank in 5-mans if needed (a spare Tanking Set might be required, however)	The most popular class in the game. Getting gear in Raids (or even finding a Raid/Guild) might be a real problem
Strong in PvP as well, especially with a pocket Healer	The abundance of Fury Warriors may force you to eventually roll as a Tank
Very high Skill-cap, not only in PvP (Warrior is a great class for minmaxers)	High repair bills will burn a large hole in your Wallet, especially during Raid progression

The Best Race Choice

Note: Here, we will point you only towards the best PvE DPS Warrior Race. If you'd like to know more about other race picks, please check our WoW Classic Beginners Guide, where we dive deep into all available Warrior's race choices for both factions.

Alliance

If you want your Racials to affect your DPS, there is only one choice in Alliance and it is Human. His Sword and Mace Specializations give him a considerable edge over other available allied races. They decrease your chance to miss an attack, reduce enemy's chance to dodge, block, and parry, and most of all, reduce glancing blow (glancing blows deal damage reduced in proportion to the difference between Target's defense skill and Attaker's weapon skill) penalty, which is huge for DPS.

Horde

Classic's racials are not too balanced. This clearly shows when you look at the ones available to the Horde and see that Undead, Troll, and Tauren can't really compete with Orc. He's Axe Specialization and Blood Fury have the highest impact on DPS, leaving all other Horde Races far behind. Moreover, Orc's Stun-Resist passive makes him great in PvP as well, so you don't even have to make any compromises between PvP and PvE when picking a Race on the Horde side.

The Best Professions Choice

Picture of craps table layout template. There is only one profession that makes a real impact in Raids and it is Engineering (Alchemy is also a decent option, but you can buy Flasks, Elixirs, and Potions from other players, which makes it much less impactful). It gives you access to powerful explosives that increase your AoE and Single-Target DPS. On top of that, it lets you create and use Gnomish Battle Chicken Trinket that summons a Guardian Chicken that fights at your side and has a chance on hit to cast a 'Battle Squawk' which boosts Melee attack speed of all Party members by 5%, making it a must-have in every competitive group. The fact that Engineering is also considered the best PvP profession is an added benefit to its power in PvE environment.

At the start, you should pick Mining to supplement your Engineering Skill, you can always switch it to another profession of your liking later on.

Note: If you want to know more about all available professions and secondary skills, please check our detailed WoW Classic Professions Guide.

Statistics Priority

Weapon Stats - Warrior's DPS depends primarily on his Weapons. You should aim to upgrade them before upgrading any other gear piece. The most important Weapon Stat to look for, as a Fury Warrior, is the Weapon's DPS.
Weapon Skill - Increases your chance to Hit, decreases enemy's chance to Block, Dodge, and Parry, and counteracts Glancing Blow Penalty. You should aim to get 308 Weapon Skill (if you pick Orc/Human, all you'll need is 3 additional points).
Hit Chance - Increases your chance to Hit a Target, which positively affects your DPS (both directly as more hits = more damage, and indirectly as more hits = more Rage = more Special Attacks = more damage).
Critical Strike - Gives you a chance to deal additional (critical) Damage with all your attacks. It also effectively increases the uptime of your Flurry.
Attack Power/Strength - Increases Damage you deal to your enemies. Warrior's Strength to Damage proportion is calculated as follows: 1 Str = 2 AP, and 14 AP = 1 Weapon DPS (so, 7 Str = 1 Weapon DPS).
Agility - Increases your Critical Strike chance, providing you with higher Flurry uptimes and generally increasing your DPS.
