Welcome to Wowhead's Protection Warrior Arena PvP Guide, up to date for 9.2! In this section of the guide, we cover effective strategies for Protection Warriors in PvP, including defensive strategies, Demoralizing Shout usage in PvP, and some common mistakes that Protection Warriors make (so that you can avoid making them yourself). Strategy is crucial for winning arenas, so knowing how to use your utility will prove useful. We also cover ideal rotations for Protection Warriors in PvP. Although PvP isn't necessarily rotation-based, it is useful to know how to output as much damage as you can (when it is possible to do so).

Important Cooldowns for Protection Warriors in PvP
This section focuses on the important abilities and how to use them properly, going over the Offensive, Defensive and Utility cooldowns. Using these well can turn the tides of the game, allowing you to carry your team to victory!
Offensive
天神下凡
天神下凡
gives a ton of extra burst damage on a relatively low cooldown. Make sure that you spam your
雷霆一击
for maximum DPS, which should be half your globals during Avatar. It also will benefit more if you have
雷霆打击
, making it incredibly frustrating for the enemy team to deal with, especially any melee DPS. You could also wait to use it as a root-breaker against compositions with plenty of root effects, but ideally you want to use it for the damage output as a Protection Warrior.
碎裂投掷
The return of
碎裂投掷
is another welcome sight, being excellent against the likes of Paladins and Mages, allowing you to demolish
圣盾术
or
寒冰屏障
. It also has a damaging element too, making it even more useful to use as a damage cooldown into absorbs. You could use this against
作茧缚命
,
血肉铸造
s or commonly into a Warlocks
黑暗契约
allowing you to burst through these huge absorbs, giving you a ton of damage that could obliterate your opponent!
压迫
Using
压迫
requires not only your own damage to the target, but your partners damage as well, in order to increase the benefit of this talent. That means you should coordinate not only who you want to pressure, but letting your healer know so they can contribute damage during your
压迫
windows. Ideally in 3v3, you should always have at least 9% extra damage on the target of your choice.
Defensive
援护
I'm ecstatic for the return of
援护
and it's more powerful than ever, allowing you to intervene ALL melee and ranged attacks for 6 seconds, provided your allied target remains within 10 yards of you! Simply using it on a partner that's taking a ton of melee/ranged damage, will direct the melee/ranged pressure on you (note, this doesn't work against magic damage). The best time to use this is during scary offensive cooldowns from the enemy team, or/and when they have stunned one of your partners.
法术反射
法术反射
has great potential in arena games. If used well, you can deflect incoming burst pressure from highly damaging abilities or you can reflect crowd control, allowing you to swing the momentum of a game in your favour. When feeling confident with this spell, you could start using Spell Reflection on instant CC spells, if you can predict them (e.g
制裁之锤
,
死亡缠绕
,
冰冻陷阱
, etc.)
缴械
缴械
Is incredibly powerful against nearly all melee classes (not effective against Windwalkers or Feral Druids). It will negate most melee's abilities, including pressure as well as important crowd control tools. Lasting for 6 seconds, this is a highly effective way of reducing pressure when using it against enemy offensive cooldowns or during offensive setups.
集结呐喊
集结呐喊
is an essential team cooldown, used to save someone's life. Basically you want to use it to try and prevent a death most of the time, but it could also be used to save other defensive cooldowns used from your partners. It has the benefit of effects such as
治疗石
giving more healing due to this buff.
破釜沉舟
Having
破釜沉舟
is a saving grace against any composition if you are being pressured heavily, looking like you are going to die. Simply using it when you're low on health is the best way to use this, if you feel like you will die otherwise. It will most likely save you in most situations. You may need to use additional defensive cooldowns if the opposing team uses multiple offensive cooldowns.
盾墙
This is a simple one to use as it's a big defensive cooldown, so you want to reduce as much damage as possible, whilst you're relatively high on health. Using abilities like
盾墙
on low HP will have a very weak effect, forcing you to most likely use other defensive cooldowns in order to survive.
护卫
When against any type of heavy physical damage,
护卫
will be your king defensive cooldown here for your partners. Simply using it on anyone that's taking physical damage, will redirect a large portion of that damage to you, as long as you remain in range of your partner with
护卫
up. It's a low cooldown so you should be able to refresh it, but the distance between you and the partner could be hard to keep up constantly unless it's another melee class. You may use mobility cooldowns in order to get back onto your partner and make sure you refresh
护卫
if it falls off. You should probably be using self-mitigation abilities here to help further deal with their pressure.
盾击
The best way to use
盾击
is by trying to land it whilst the enemy player is casting. That way, it will reset the cooldown, making it spammable, dealing increased damage as well as constantly hindering their own damage. If the enemy doesn't cast, then you could still use this ability nearly on cooldown to reduce the enemy targets pressure.
Utility
挫志怒吼
Keeping up
挫志怒吼
on your enemies is a vital part of a Protection Warrior, giving you increased damage as well as decreasing the damage affected targets deal to
ALL
partners on your team. This has been made significantly easier with the talents as we discussed above. It does involve some knowledge with how to keep it up.
愤怒掌控
and
士气重挫
allows you to get
挫志怒吼
back off cooldown in no time! This allows you to have more uses of it, which is great because you gain 40
怒气
every time you use it, thanks to
震耳嗓音
. Be mindful that you may need to use it defensively to reduce pressure, given the situation. That being said, you can pretty much use this on cooldown but try to make sure you hit all of the enemy DPS in arenas if possible.
破胆怒吼
This can be used for both peeling and aggressive needs. Using it to peel offensive cooldowns or an offensive setup from the enemy team, can be a good use of it if you lack other peeling tools. Using it aggressively is usually in the form of CC chains on enemy healers. You could even initiate this yourself, with a
风暴之锤
into an
破胆怒吼
on the enemy healer whilst slaying a DPS target.
风暴之锤
Most of the time, Warriors will use
风暴之锤
. This talent has incredible uses, both offensively and defensively. Some compositions may vary on the use of that too, either to score a kill against the opponent or defensively for your survival. It’s all about trial and error, finding what works for you and your team, and making it as efficient as possible! Since you have
震荡波
, you probably want to use
风暴之锤
more for ranged purposes, where you will have a difficult time hitting your Shockwave.
震荡波
Mastering the use of
震荡波
can be excellent when dealing with melee cleaves or heavy pet classes. If you're able to land this on 3+ targets reliably, you may want to spec into
滚石
in order to have more uses of
震荡波
. In general you won't be able to do so, in which case just hit as many targets as possible, or don't be afraid to do it single target if your team has no other stun!
巨龙冲锋
Playing with this PvP talent can be a lot of fun, being used for different reasons throughout an arena game. The most effective way of using
巨龙冲锋
is by using it as another interrupt, typically when enemy targets are casting heavy CC or damage abilities that could otherwise be difficult to deal with. The knockback effect could make it more prominent to abuse this effect on certain maps, such as Blade's Edge Mountain or Mugambala. Against high mobility classes that require a lot of up-time, you could simply use
巨龙冲锋
as a way of closing the gap when you don't have other mobility cooldowns available.
Effective Strategies for Protection Warriors in PvP
Having knowledge of how your class functions, which abilities to use when and where are important when playing any class in general. It’s another thing to have effective strategies in an arena match, which will be a big decider on winning or losing matchups. To help with that, I’ll be going over the basics of things you should know.
Target Choice
Throughout an arena game, you will have a good idea of which target or targets you want to pressure with you and your teammates. As a Warrior, you will usually choose the target that susceptible to your physical damage, ideally being one that you can connect to quite easily.
That being said, their may be times when your target kites far back or away from you, making you unable to follow him. In these situations, you have 2 choices, to pursue them or to swap targets. Both are dependable given the situation and the more you play, the more you'll figure this out as it can vary on the composition you or your opponent plays. For instance, against an Affliction warlock/Windwalker/
Healer
, most of the time you'll be chasing a warlock in order to shut them down and pressure them heavily. You
could
make swaps onto the Windwalker and their healer, but depending on the comp you play and how well they play, this may be a mistake and tunneling the warlock would've been more favorable. Be wary of your target choice as this will have a big impact on the game.
Peeling at the Right Time
Protection Warriors have a huge arsenal of defensive cooldowns that when used well, could save your partners life and even their own defensive cooldown usage. As such it's important to use your defensive abilities (as explained above) in a timely manner, in order to significantly reduce the pressure of the enemy teams offensive setup. I'll explain a few examples of this to give you a clear image of when it is a good time to use your peeling spells.
援护
can be a tricky one to use as it's highly versatile but using it properly will be important due to how absurdly powerful it is. Luckily, the easiest and best way to use this is simply on a target that's taking heavy fire from offensive cooldowns, or is stunned and unable to kite/avoid the damage themselves. However, sometimes you could use this to deny CC on your partners as well, commonly when your healer is being put into a
致盲
>
闷棍
CC chain. Timing your
援护
could be hard, but when done well, you could deny this cc chain, allowing your healer to be free.
Another ability where timing is critical, is with the use of
集结呐喊
. This is your life-saver cooldown but if used poorly, you may watch your partner die as
集结呐喊
falls off your partner. Treat it as an AoE
宇宙角斗士的纹章
which can be used to make sure your partner isn't going to die during high pressure scenarios. Using this well all the time can require practice and experience, as well as communication with teammates to make sure you don't overlap it unnecessarily. For the less experienced, a nice rule-of-thumb to have when using it could be whenever you or your partners drop below
20%HP
, denying most Execute like mechanics from finishing off your partners.
Protection Warrior Rotations
Single-Target Damage Rotation
挫志怒吼
盾牌猛击
雷霆一击
斩杀
复仇
(only for 0 rage procs)
挫志怒吼
will be a very low cooldown, so using it on cooldown is a great way of gaining a lot of Rage. In PvP instances, you really want to make sure that as many targets are hit with your Demoralizing Shout as it will not only buff your damage, but reduce the effected targets damage they do to
anyone
in your team, thanks to the overpowered PvP talent
士气重挫
.
Burst Damage Rotation
天神下凡
挫志怒吼
盾牌猛击
雷霆一击
复仇
(only for 0 rage procs)
天神下凡
gives your
雷霆一击
an incredible amount of damage due to the talent
无坚不摧之力
(which as stated before, you should be playing with). Thus it makes Thunder Clap more of a priority than Shield Slam.
Multi-Target Damage Rotation
挫志怒吼
雷霆一击
复仇
盾牌猛击
毁灭打击
This is great for creating cleave pressure when dealing with 2+ targets that you want to kill. Note that
复仇
is mainly used to maintain
重伤
on multiple targets with ease.
Common Mistakes Protection Warriors Make
Not Keeping Up
挫志怒吼
Even though this is incredibly simple to do, you'd be surprised how many people forget using this ability, when given the low cooldown of it, should be used as much as possible. Since you play with
愤怒掌控
and
士气重挫
, it will have a low cooldown and should have high up-time on your targets.
士气重挫
also makes it so that your teammates will take reduced pressure as well from enemy targets hit with
挫志怒吼
. This is the essence of a Protection Warrior so if you're not doing this, you might as well play another spec!
Wasting Mobility
Protection Warriors have a decent amount of mobility in the form of
冲锋
and
英勇飞跃
. Since they are also mainly melee damage users, you'll need good uptime of melee range in order to deal extra pressure. If not, much like the other Warrior specs, you can't do much else to help out in an arena match if you're being kited. A good rule of thumb for this is to either:
Use mobility cooldowns ONLY when the enemy class uses their mobility cooldown, in order to connect.
If you know the class will continue kiting you easily, switch to the next best target.
Whilst these are simple rules, they can become difficult depending on the classes you face. When these situations arise, consider playing with
跃行勇士
in order to gain extra mobility in matchups where you just need uptime to win.
Running out of range of
护卫
/
援护
.
Both of these abilities are crucial for you to stay in range of the target you use these abilities on, as moving away from your target means the abilities stop working even if the buff is active. Every game you will need to make good use of these cooldowns in order for your teammates to survive, so don't waste them!
缴械
ing whilst
缴械
ed!
If I could pin-point the biggest mistake I see when I face other Warriors as a Warrior myself, it's this one! Even I fall pray to doing this sometimes but just because it's the only ability you can use whilst disarmed, doesn't mean that you should use it.
缴械
targets when they are popping offensive cooldowns or if you are at heavy risk of dying without the use of it. Typically in a Warrior versus Warrior matchup, you should mainly be using Disarm on
灭战者
windows to reduce their pressure!
Protection Warrior Tips and Tricks
Outplaying with
援护
!
Say if a Mage is casting
变形术
on you and their partner Rogue is hitting your partner, by casting
援护
on that partner, the Rogue will most likely break your sheep! When feeling more comfortable with using
援护
at a high level, if you're able to read your opponents gameplay well, you could even look to outplay them on important abilities with clever use of
援护
! You could preemptively Intervene physical stuns your partners, such as
肾击
or
风暴之锤
. You can even Intervene
ALL
physical melee interrupt effects, allowing your caster or healer to free cast during times of need! If feeling lucky, you could even use it to intervene other CC, such as
致盲
on your healer!
Common other ways to 'outplay' with Intervene is by using it in conjunction with defensive abilities to reduce pressure on yourself or mitigate it! One that you can do nearly all the time is using
无视苦痛
with it, so that you can reduce some of the pressure you will take when currently intervening your partners. Another use (which doesn't get used nearly enough) is with
盾牌格挡
. This can be used when needing to heavily reduce physical damage on yourself and not looking to try and counter pressure in the meantime.
Offensive
缴械
s
Although this PvP talent is mostly used defensively, you could use it offensively in some situations. Using it on a Windwalker channeling
怒雷破
can negate the parry effect of
怒雷叶轮
allowing you to keep up your pressure. You could also use it on Warriors, denying the use of
, which can easily be their downfall. Another case where this is common is against Death Knights,
缴械
ing them to stop their
灵界打击
s, negating a ton of healing.

Granted I haven't played warrior for years but, charge is 25 yards.

In world PVP what can i do against a hunter, or pretty much any ranged?
Absolute Joke.
Why have the classes got worse to play over the years.
