Welcome to my World of Warcraft (WoW) level 70 dual wield fury warrior raiding guide. This is a collective how-to based on things I've learned on my own (I currently raid end-game as a fury warrior and have also been playing a warrior for the past two years), and from others I've come across in my travels. The goal is to explain the mechanics of a fury warrior, the necessary stats, and how to perform at an optimal DPS (Damage Per Second) level in raids. Also included are all sorts of nifty things that hopefully answer questions new warriors might have; like weapon choices and how to socket gear.

Note: This is for PvE (Player versus Environment) only, not for PvP (Player versus Player). For PvP you'd want to go with a 2-handed weapon and spec into the arms tree for mortal strike. With that cleared up let's get to it!

For the OPTIMAL dual wield fury talent build, please visit the link provided in the Resources section.

First let's go through the basic stats a fury warrior should focus on. The key stats in no particular order are strength/attack power, critical strike rating, hit rating, and stamina. Why are these important?

Very cool article! With agility enchants and >Kara gear you can reach the crit rating easy, i think about 29% is the fist thing you should go for, your dps with flurry will jumpstart you even with minimal attack power. And as for the hit rating thing, (unless changed) your special attacks, "yellow attacks" miss at 8% base, which is why it is pretty easy to reach with the talents. And basic attack "White damage" is around 16%, but with the dual wielding penalty, its around 30%. (Feel free to correct me if im wrong).

My mistake, Bloodthirst is on a 6 SECOND cooldown, unfortunately I cannot edit this article once published, but anyone who plays WoW would know that it was a simple mistake. I no longer play myself, but hopefully some of this information still comes in handy. Any and all ratio's or math used in this article is used from calculations based on spreadsheets I've read etc, that can be found in the World of Warcraft Warrior forums, with enough digging, or places like elitistjerks.com. However, as this article gets older and older, things will change. So be sure to do your own research and stay up-to-date. :)

i want to see the gear ppl talk about pre kara with these stats the gladiator gear sucks for fury warriors what other gear is availible pre kara since u have to be geared for kara not a must but a smart idea. if i get crit up i loose hit there seems no way to keep both at crazy numbers u talk of i just want to see the gear that gives these crazy stats . i went with glad slicer in main and quick blade in off im kinda wish i got slicer in offhand but the quick bade gives u just as much dps but not as much dmg with wirlwind which is good when there is no cc but you cant use if there is a sheep of freexe trap next to u so wirlwind u dont use as much . i just hit 70 and have adamindt set which i will upgrade ragesteel shoulders which have good hit but a 2nd piece sucks but will help hit more . my legs have 30stam 10 agil armor kit with agil and strenth with the hit rating stat . i want to upgrade gear asap but not much better options than glad gear pre kara . AND GLAD GEAR SUCKS FOR FURY .
