How Your Warrior Can Dominate World PvP

PvP combat is in your Warrior’s future, even if you’ve avoided it so far. Wrath of the Lich King has brought more advanced, real time battles to the game.

The first real time PvP battle zone is Lake Wintergrasp. There players face off on the live server to win points that allow them to shop for all sorts of rare and valuable items such as the new Heirloom items that any of the player’s characters in that account from level 1 to 80 and beyond can use.

With Lake Wintergrasp’s high popularity, and the increasing amount of PvP combat in other popular games, there will surely be even more World PvP in the future. Here’s what you need to know for your Warrior to rule in this new world:

Competing as a Warrior in World of Warcraft PvP combat might seem straightforward. Find the enemy, then pulverize him! But it isn’t really that simple at all. Let me explain.

As you would imagine, the goal of a Warrior is to deal as much physical damage as possible. What catches people by surprise is that good Warriors are more concerned about dealing with spellcasters than they are about losing a sword fight. The reason for this is simple. Only Paladins and other Warriors can survive for more than a few seconds in hand to hand combat with a skilled Warrior. But a smart opponent with powerful magic or ranged attacks can make life difficult.

Unfortunately, Warriors don’t get many opportunities to duel against other Warriors in the arena. And any decent PvP player knows that they stand little chance in close combat against a Warrior, so they don’t engage. Warriors often end up fighting spell casters and ranged fighters like Hunters. Dealing with those cowards requires sound tactics, as well as a solid understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent.

The biggest challenge for a Warrior tends to be how to get into melee range of the opponent. The other classes know better than to get you get too close, and will be doing everything they can to stay out of your range. To close the gap on the cowards, you will need to understand and effectively use Warrior-specific skills like Charge at the start of battles and Intercept to close the gap while in battle. Once close, your Warrior will need to use debilitating skills like Hamstring and Intimidating Shout to stop the worms from fleeing as you load up on rage and hit the opponent as hard as possible.

And while you’re thinking about all this, don’t forget that those damnable casters and ranged fighters can prick you to death long before you get near them. For this reason, you must learn how to use your defensive stances and spell reflects, master the timing of Intercept and Hamstring, and be ready to unload as much damage as possible when you get the chance. That’s a lot to figure out on your own. A quality Warrior PvP Guide will provide you all the information you need to do just that.

A quality Warrior PvP Guide will show you how to defeat the other character classes in those situations where brute strength and combat rage aren’t the deciding factor. An effective Guide will teach everything you need to know to battle against any opponent on your own terms, including those unmanly ranged fighters and robe-wearing spell casters. And it will show you how to apply your rage and crowd control abilities together to immobilize and slaughter your foes.

Finally, since the best PvP Guide will incorporate the hard-earned combat lore of veteran Warriors, it will contain strategies and tactics that you’re unlikely to discover on your own in any reasonable amount of time. It will teach you the key things you need to know, saving you all the time and energy you would otherwise spend on learning by trial and error.
