We have two meta gems to choose from as DPS Warriors:
Now, obviously Critical Strike Rating is a better stat for us than Agility. Given that the stats come in the same dose with either meta, the Chaotic seems to easily beat out the Relentless, and as such, has been hailed by many as the premiere meta gem for quite while.
However, all things are not equal. The winner is decided by the meta gem requirement.
Alright, we’re moving on to the Arms trash, now. This one will be a bit shorter, but fear not – you will still get all the juicy goodness as before. Again, this is for DPS, this is not considering the talents for use in a tanking build.
Those pesky trash talents.
They’re filler. They’re all less-than-optimal, and you probably wouldn’t take them, if you had a choice. But you have to get down the tree somehow, right? This little two-part will cover your options in how to most intelligently make your way to the meat and potatoes of your respective DPS Warrior spec.
Today, we’re going to cover the options we have to get through the first three tiers of the Fury tree. I will be using Wowhead’s excellent talent calculator for reference. This most applies to Fury Warriors, but can be applied to Arms specs employing an Improved Execute build, as well.
