The Warrior Guide – Get Started In PvPPosted by on June 4th, 2010

Mastering your Warrior in PvE combat is one thing – Mastering Warrior PvP is a whole other beast. If you’re looking to improve your PvP performance with your Warrior, the first step is to understand the role you’re playing in the bigger picture.

When starting PvP, many players only look at their own character as an isolated hero instead of a part of a greater game. That’s a big mistake!

This quick warrior guide let’s you look at the whole picture and see it as a chess board with different pieces.

Each class gets to play a different role in the battle. If you approach the battle from this strategic perspective, your odds of dominating will increase tenfold.

One of the foundations of a strong PvP game as is having gear that is rich in resilience. PvP is not like PvE, as every Warrior guide can tell you. It’s not about Defense or Block Rating. A raid tank is great for PvE, but helpless on the battlegrounds.

Your next step is to master your stance dance. Your ability to react to situations and pick the appropriate skill in a given situation is critical. You need to think and act really fast. Stun your enemies whenever you can and don’t let them get away from you.

Well, that’s basically it.

I know this is very basic stuff but this is what it comes down to. It’s the foundation every strategy and tactic builds on.

Let me give you an action plan to create a warrior who’s going to crush his opponents in the arena:

#1 – First of all, get a proven PvP talent spec that fits your playing style.

#2 – Get the right Glyphs and gear to match with your new PvP build. Remember: Resilience all the way! I also recommend you to write down a list of gear you want to get and how to aquire it asap.

#3 – Make yourself familiar with a solid Warrior PvP guide, but don’t get hung up with theoretical studying. Visit battlefields and the arena as often as you can to get the real, practical experience. And don’t be frustrated if you lose in the beginning, that’s what everyone does before they become champions.
