## Summary

Plan WoW Forever Warrior talents across Arms, Fury and Protection and see what changed from Classic.

## Content

## WoW Forever Warrior talents at a glance

WoW Forever keeps 52 Warrior talents, the same total as Classic, but only five of them are unchanged. Ten talents are new, 35 have new wording or numbers and two moved to another spot in the tree. Ten Classic Warrior talents are gone, most of them the weapon specializations and shout upgrades that used to fill the middle rows.

The 31-point talents are still Mortal Strike, Bloodthirst and Shield Slam. The new 16-point milestone gives each tree a one-point talent in row 4: Spearing Strike for Arms, Raging Blows for Fury and Vanguard for Protection.

## Arms

A WoW Forever Arms Warrior spends most points in this tree. Arms trades its four weapon specializations for **Weaponmaster**, a five-rank talent whose bonus depends on the weapon: critical strike chance with axes and polearms, armor penetration with maces and staves, and an extra-attack effect with swords. **Bloodthrill** lets your main-hand hits on targets with your Rend open Overpower, which ties Rend and Overpower into one loop. **Spearing Strike** is a new active attack that deals extra damage to Giants, Dragonkin and mounted targets and dismounts them. Mortal Strike still needs Sweeping Strikes at max rank.

## Fury

A WoW Forever Fury Warrior spends most points in this tree. Fury loses Improved Battle Shout, Improved Demoralizing Shout and Improved Cleave. In their place, **Lingering Rage** slows Rage decay after combat, **Furious Precision** adds off-hand hit chance for dual wielders, **Raging Blows** cuts the Rage cost of Cleave and Whirlwind, and **Gore Drinker** makes your Enrage, Berserker Rage, Bloodrage, Death Wish and Bloodthirst heal you on your next melee attacks. Bloodthirst now also raises your movement speed for 10 seconds.

## Protection

This is the tree a WoW Forever Prot Warrior fills first. Toughness, Improved Shield Block and Improved Taunt are gone. **Master of Defense** generates Rage when you dodge or parry with a shield, **Vanguard** lets you Charge in Defensive Stance, and **Focused Rage** lowers the cost of your offensive abilities. Shield Slam is still the 31-point talent.

## Planning a Warrior while leveling

Points arrive one per level from 10, so the Warrior trees fill slowly. The level selector keeps a build legal for the level you choose, and the Legacy Talented option shows how much sooner the points come if you have that perk. The talent reference below lists every Warrior talent with all of its ranks, so you can read a whole tree without hovering over each icon.

## Save and share a WoW Forever Warrior build

Every point you spend is written to the page address, so a WoW Forever Warrior build is saved the moment you make it. Copy the build link to post it in your guild chat or a guide; opening it restores the same points, level and Legacy Talented rank. Your last Warrior build also stays in this browser, and the [Legacy talents planner](/tools/legacy-talents) works the same way for your account perks.

## Runs in your browser

The calculator runs in this browser tab. Your build lives in the page address and in this browser's local storage; nothing is sent to a server.
