Rextroy's Two-Handed Warrior One-Shot

Recommended Posts

In the latest video, Rextroy dusts off his Protection Warrior and heads straight into Arena to wreak havoc. The Warrior combo revolves around 5 empowered sources of damage at once.

Quote

Background:

I have been working on this video since prepatch, and it is finally here! The ultimate combo for a Protection Warrior, that even gives you enough damage to one shot people in Arena (with varied outcomes depending on crits and the enemy armor type).

 I started off with a simple combo that could be done in BGs, the damage sources was:

  • Dragon's Roar (crits for 3x normal damage)
  • Melee
  • Dragon Charge

We had these 3 abilities empowered thanks to 3x traits of Bastion of Might and 3x traits of Gathering Storm (this trait works with Protections Ravager talent, to stack up massive Strength)

An interesting thing with Dragon Charge is that it does damage, and it is also off the global cooldown. This makes you able to use it for free damage in a combo. You can also /cancelaura Dragon Charge to interrupt the charge early.

We also take use of Strength of the Warden for 50% additional damage. Reason we are using a 2 hander is because all the abilities we need for the combo is usable with a 2 hander equipped, and a 2 hander will do more damage than a 1 hander (obviously)

Still, this damage was just enough for BGs thanks to Berserking and Saltwater Potion, we needed way more damage to actually one shot people in Arenas.

So I added 3 additional sources of damage. I replaced my Badge trinket with the Writhing Segment of Drest'agath Writhing Segment of Drest'agath (that most of you know about)

I also casted Shattering Throw before the combo (since its a cast time, your global will be free once its done) The final thing is the Lightforged racial Light's Judgment Light's Judgment

Light's Judgment is perfect because it has a delay on the damage arriving, making it fit just before you start the Shattering Throw. (Thanks to baelbeam on twitch for inspiring me to change to Lightforged)

With all of this, we are geting 5 sources of damage, with a lot of powerups aswell...

The combo can be done in a fast way with a little bit less damage (replacing Shattering Throw with auto hit) or a slower one..

You start both comboes with Avatar and Ravager to stack up stats Also, you want the Warpath PvP talent for an additional stun!

For the fast one:

  • Heroic Leap and Light's Judgment. Global should be free when you land
  • Strength of the Warden
  • Then you unleash Auto Hit, Dragon Roar, Drest'agath Trinket, Dragon Charge and Light's Judgment all at the same time.

For the slow one:

  • Heroic Leap (hope that enemy trinkets Warpath or don't trinket at all)
  • Strength of the Warden
  • Intimidating Shout
  • Light's Judgment
  • Shattering Throw
  • Dragon Roar, Drest'agath Trinket, Dragon Charge and Light's Judgement at the same time!

Important Macroes:

/cast [@target] shattering throw

A really simple macro but important. The issue with the second combo is that simply pressing Shattering Throw will activate your Auto Hit. And somehow Intimidating Shout seems to break on a single hit, so you want this macro to not accidently activate auto hit and break your own fear.

/stopattack

/cast intimidating shout

Also a simple one, just to make sure you turn off auto hit before you cast fear, so it won't break

The whole combo macro is the following:

/cast dragon roar

/use writhing segment of drest'agath

/cast dragon charge

/cancelaura dragon charge

Spam it if you want to stop your dragon charge. I decided to use my Shattering Throw as a seperate macro (shown above) Also add in /startattack at the start of it, if you going with the fast combo (without fear and Shattering) Hope you thought this warrior one shot guide was interesting!

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
