I'm honestly not out to get you, I swear.

Original Post:

So how many warriors get their rogues to give them Tott? I had 2 rogues in the raid give me Tott just for PW which I normally don't get and I crushed my last personal record. I just wish our Blood DK was online to get hysteria during the BL to stack with DW to see if I could have broken 8K DPS! I also screwed up my rotation at one point using the untalented version of berserker rage basically wasting a GCD when BT was up and wasting a lot of rage in the process. Here is the WWS:

Wow Web Stats

My execute phase was really good on this fight and on most fights now that I think about it. From what I read on these forums, most warriors tend to try and figure out a set rotation to use during execute phase. What works best for me is having no set rotation. Obviously the rotation will vary depending if you have BL or not. But whether I have BL or not, I still don't have a set rotation for my GCD's. I have a priority sequence based on my current rage for each GCD.

During BL if my rage goes over 35, I execute that GCD, anything below and I keep the standard WW > BT > Slam rotation. But it never gets to the point that I have to slam, especially with BL up. Without BL, if my rage goes over 50, I then execute that GCD but if it goes below, I go back to the standard rotation. Without BL you might find yourself using more of your standard rotation, especially if you get unlucky with misses that hurts your rage gen.

But my point is, there is no set rotation with GCD's like there is for the rest of the fight. Let the rage you have determine what your rotation is and that will always be different. Because if your rage gets to 35 or higher with BL or 50 or higher without BL, most of the time I notice if I use WW, I max out on rage and then some immediately after and that's wasted rage that could have gone towards your DPS. Execute is basically a priority over everything at certain rage levels depending on your haste.

So the easiest way to perfect the execute phase is just not letting your rage hit 100 (sound familiar?) while at the same time trying to fit in WW & BT at lower rage levels. If you can do that, you'll see your DPS go up. Execute is basically a much better rage dump than HS so we can somewhat use them in a similar sense by letting the amount of rage we currently have dictate when we use them. This might sound like common sense, but if you save recklessness for the execute phase (I do on most fights), use recklessness right after an execute or you'll be wasting a lot of rage.

Onto another subject. I still refuse to wear leather/mail but urge others to do so until they buff ATTT! But on the other hand, warriors shouldn't feel like they *NEED* to wear leather/mail to do good DPS. So don't pick fights with other classes that are meant to wear them! I only need the back & gun from KT to complete my set heading into Ulduar so what I'm using now is my BiS plate set up as the gun/back I need obviously aren't plate items.

Edit: Forgot to mention I actually pulled hate at 3% and died on PW, lol! So even if I had hysteria, I probably would have died earlier. One pally was on the ball and gave me salv, but the other 2 didn't notice.
