How to play at level 30

Your combat loop

Maintain weapon attacks
Keep Battle Shout up. Use Overpower when available and Sunder Armor early in a long fight.
Spend rage carefully
Heroic Strike and Cleave spend surplus rage; do not starve the next pull.
Execute
Finish a low-health enemy when the rage cost is worthwhile.
Death Wish
If talented, use when you can handle the incoming damage. Bloodthirst and Whirlwind are still unavailable at level 30.

General guidance, not a simulated optimal rotation. Use trained spells and talents you chose. Talent milestones assume ordinary points; Legacy can move them earlier. Weights are editable MaxDPS estimates, not measured DPS or HPS.

Core ability focus

Heroic Strike

Dual-wield melee build; one-hand weapons, no shield. Class proficiencies are assumed trained. Lower armor tiers remain available.

Default stat priorities

Weapon melee DPS3.00
Strength1.00
Critical strike1.00

Haste0.80
Agility0.60

Points per stat point, used for the gear scores below. Starter weights balance the stats used by this build.

Adjust stat priorities Starter defaults

Each reported stat × its weight, added together. Weights are tuning choices, not game coefficients. Ratings stay in source units; no percentage conversion is assumed. Changes last for this page visit.

Choosing gear at this level

Keep your damage weapon current. Compare speed and effects as well as score; one two-hander and two one-handers are not equivalent comparisons.

Rage and leveling attacks

Rage from your attacks follows the speed of the weapon that dealt the damage, and critical strikes give extra rage. Keep weapons current for damage, and check which abilities you have trained before copying an endgame rotation at a low level.

Skyborne Warriors are available to both factions.
