Best Protection Warrior Raid Talent Build
There isn't currently much differences between most Protection warrior builds. The most common switch up is whether you want to have a heavy focus on Execute or not.

]
As we are Mountain Thane, we have a little more focus on Thunder Clap which gets buffed to Thunder Blast. This is our highest priority.

Further Details

If you don't feel ike you are making any use of Battle-Scarred Veteran you can drop it for a bit more DPS.

Best Protection Warrior Mythic+ Talent Build

This is fairly similar to the raid build, we just opt to take some extra defensive points like Battle-Scarred Veteran.

]
This build aims to cast Thunder clap as often as possible.

heading=false]

Further Details

Make use of all your powerful utility spells for your group like Disrupting Shout and Rallying Cry, alongside Battle Shout.

Best Protection Warrior Delve Talent Build

This build has a massive nuke on a short cooldown which works great for Delves.

]
A simple easy build, we aim to acquire as many mobs as possible then AoE them down fast with Demolish and Thunder Clap.

The M+ section seems to be missing the bottom part of the tree and has the hero talents talented instead.

Comment by knitwhit

The Hero Talent Earthquaker can't be used unless you talent Shockwave in the Warrior tree.

Comment by Hustletron

So are they going to change earthquaker/boneshaker to actually make it useful outside of shockwave? What a joke.

Comment by fiestysc

Hi guys
Under the section Protection Warrior Leveling Builds the first link "leveling tips page" it actually links to the Frost DK leveling guide..
Cheers

Comment by knitwhit

For the Colossus builds you need to drop Wrecking Throw and add back in Shockwave in order to use Earthquaker.

Comment by Sabrae

Hey !

The raid and mythic + builds are the same.

The mythic + build text mention taking battle-scarred veteran but the build linked does not.

Copy paste error ?

Comment by Decrest

Your Colosus Raid build is actually a Mountain Thane build

Comment by Zudraken

Wouldnt getting Heavy Repercussions be better for keeping Shield Block up infinitely instead of the extra haste?

Comment by Vraeya

I'm still lost to the warrior receiving a channeling ability....
