Warrior leveling guide

Still the hardest class to level alone: no self-heal beyond Victory Rush and Blood Craze, and gear-dependent damage. Forever helps with normalized Rage, Victory Rush at 20 and Reckless Swings. Level with a healer friend or in dungeons when you can; as a tank you never wait for a group.

Tips

  • Weapon specializations are gone: use whatever hits hardest; Weaponmaster (Arms) gives a benefit per weapon type.
  • First Aid Kit camp feature is 56 Stamina for free; keep bandages trained.
  • Tauren Plainsrunning reaches 60% speed on foot; Dwarf Stoneform cleanses bleeds.
  • Cooked food gives 5% kill XP and a Camp Tent raises rested XP; the Cozy Sleeping Bag chain adds up to 3% more. See the leveling guide.
  • Riding at 40 costs about 100 gold in total; start saving at 25. See gold.

Race

Leveling pick: Tauren / Dwarf. Tauren Plainsrunning builds to 60% on-foot speed before you can afford a mount; Dwarf Stoneform cleanses bleeds and poisons and Big Game Hunter adds 5% against beasts. Full comparison on the Warrior races page.
