Fury Warrior Leveling Guide for Midnight

Fury Warrior is a very straightforward leveling class, which starts a little slow, but picks up worthwhile multi-target tools around level 17 and features very strong self-sustain.

Past that point, Warriors start to become quite competent, regularly pulling several mobs together and cleaving them down without fear, thanks to Warpaint Icon Warpaint mitigating damage and Victory Rush Icon Victory Rush to heal back up. By rotating several offensive cooldowns, Fury Warriors will eventually chain from pull to pull with little to no downtime.

Always initiate combat with Charge Icon Charge whenever able, using Heroic Throw Icon Heroic Throw or Heroic Leap Icon Heroic Leap to pull more as desired. When facing several enemies, use Whirlwind Icon Whirlwind first so that Bloodthirst Icon Bloodthirst, Raging Blow Icon Raging Blow, Execute Icon Execute, and Rampage Icon Rampage will cleave onto multiple targets.

Once unlocked, Odyn's Fury Icon Odyn's Fury can be used regularly due to its short cooldown, while longer cooldowns like Recklessness Icon Recklessness can be saved for bigger packs or harder targets.

The Recuperate Icon Recuperate ability can be used to quickly regain health between combat, without the need to carry level appropriate food around, since it always restores 50% of maximum health.

If this is your first character, or you simply want to find out more about leveling in WoW in general, we got you covered!

Leveling Gear for Fury Warrior

When leveling up, equipping the highest item level pieces of gear is generally ideal. The major exceptions to this rule are some trinkets and Rings or Necklaces featuring two secondary stats instead of just one.

When using Heirloom items, we recommend using those with Critical Strike and Haste, as they will slightly improve Rage economy while leveling. Find out more about Heirlooms in our dedicated guide!

Best Fury Warrior Leveling Talents

Standard Leveling Build
3.1.

Standard Leveling Build

While there are many different options featured throughout the talent tree, there are not a whole lot of choices specifically for leveling, so this standard leveling build covers players questing mob-by-mob and chain running dungeons alike. Note that you do not need Thunder Clap Icon Thunder Clap until unlocking hero talents at level 71, so these points may be skipped and reallocated later if desired.

If you are just starting your journey into Midnight, we have a Level 80 import string for you. You can follow the point-by-point allocation of the below tree once you start gaining levels in Midnight.
