Warrior Talents and Specializations Arms:

Mortal Strike builds are a PvP mainstay, and also perform quite well in dungeons and while leveling, due to only requiring a single weapon, high immediate damage of each strike, and multitarget cooldown . Not very common in raids however, due to Frappe mortelle taking up a precious debuff slot.

Fury:

Dual-wielding builds are the primary raid setup due to their strong sustained damage and the powerful cooldown , although most players will not switch to dual-wielding until right before entering raids, as it requires more investment in proper weapons and +hit gear.

Protection:

Shield Slam builds are the premier tanking setup, capable of generating high threat, with an extra survivability cooldown in Dernier rempart, and multiple stuns. There are several other variations available, including builds that focus much more on damage.

Horde

Best Professions for Warriors

Blacksmithing can create very useful leveling and Best-in-Slot max level gear such as Heaume Cœur-de-lion.

Engineering provides useful bombs (Charge de sapeur gobelin) and special toys (Transporteur ultra-sécurisé : Gadgetzan) that no other profession can match

Mining is a gathering profession without any throughput related benefit, but helps support both Blacksmithing and Engineering, and selling extra ore can make good money in of itself.

Alchemy is extremely useful while leveling, particularly solo, in helping Warriors stay alive and reduce downtime through a variety of healing and buffing effects. Pairs well with Herbalism, and can be useful professions for self-sufficient players who don't want to buy all of their consumables.

I seriously cannot wait to be a Warrior again in Vanilla. The ability to finely customize my class with the old talent tree system is the thing I really miss the most in retail. August can't be here soon enough!

Gnome is so wrong for a warrior.

Gnome is the primary choice for PvP for its Escape Artist, which counters a Warriors biggest weakness: being rooted in place.

Escape Artist is so seldom of use as to be a non-factor, although I can see where it would come in very handy if you are webbed or netted.

The main reason I object is because of the very low hit points and strength you start with. I died at level 8 when 2 Snow Leopards teamed up on me. Any toon should be able to handle 2 mobs. I was already not very satisfied with how many times I was at low health with just 1 mob. I then picked Dwarf as a warrior and immediately had much better health and attack stats. I am back at 8 and and have not had low health once. Plus, the dwarf has Stoneform which adds more armor and protection from bleed, poison and disease attacks which come up often and make Stoneform very useful. Have I really used warrior a lot? No. But I had to say something against making Gnome one of the top warrior races.

You may disagree but I think I'm on solid ground with that opinion.
