Protection Warrior PvP Overview
Protection Warriors are a new addition to a Warrior’s arsenal of specializations in Arena PvP. Although Protection isn’t very common at all, being non existent in 2v2 and sparse in 3v3, it can be a spec that's difficult to beat for other teams. Learning how to peel and use your defensive utility can carry your team to victory!
Protection Warrior Strengths in PvP
Physical Damage Mitigation
The main benefit of having a Protection Warrior on your team is its impressive physical damage mitigation. Protection Warriors have increased armor with a Shield,
盾牌格挡
and
护卫
which drastically helps at reducing physical damage on your partners with ease. Other abilities like
拦截
,
破胆怒吼
and
震荡波
are all decent utilities that can add to the survival of your team.
Disruption
The best defensive utility a Protection Warrior has is the ability to keep up
挫志怒吼
on its enemies most of the time! This is possible by having the PvP talent
士气重挫
and
愤怒掌控
. With this, you'll be able to reduce every enemy's damage on your entire team by 20% as well as gaining 15% damage on said affected targets having
震耳嗓音
, having great synergy with this build overall! Protection Warriors also can have multiple stuns, with
震荡波
being baseline and speccing into
风暴之锤
. On-top of that, you can spam root your enemies with
雷霆打击
, reduce damage done with
盾击
and further disrupt casts with
巨龙冲锋
.
Protection Warrior Weaknesses in PvP
Poor Damage
One major downside to Protection Warriors is their lack of any meaningful pressure. Their main source of damage comes from AoE (through
雷霆一击
and
复仇
) which is difficult to pull off as it dependent on the enemy teams composition and playstyle. Single target wise, you barely deal any significant damage, which means momentum will usually be swaying in the enemy teams favour, having to look into longer game win strategies.
Susceptible to Magic
Losing
群体反射
as well as
法术反射
no longer lasting the duration of 4 seconds, Protection Warriors struggle to deal with high spell damage in arena games. It also means that you can't peel this damage off your partners too well either with the loss of
群体反射
.
No Mortal Wounds
Not having Mortal Wounds debuff as well as weak pressure is a big reason to why protection warriors are hard to make work in PvP. These weaknesses combined make it incredibly difficult to kill, having to usually rely with winning on mana, which will be difficult to do considering healers will have an easy time healing against prot warrior teams. As such you will most likely be forced to play with an MS class, that does a lot of damage, to help try have any success.
Weak Offensive Toolkit
With a lack of pressure and most tools being good defensive ones, Protection Warriors lack any form of aggression, making it extremely difficult to win games quickly. This leads to long dampening drawn out games which you may not even win either, which could be exhausting and even boring to those that would rather play comps that can end the game fairly quickly.
Protection Warrior PvP in Shadowlands Patch 9.2
There are relatively few changes towards a Protection Warriors Covenants, Talents or Legendaries, which makes me feel like they will continue to be relatively extinct in Shadowlands PvP. There may be some niche compositions that a Protection Warrior could work with, but overall I suspect it won't be a dominant or active spec choice in the arena.
Talents and Racials in Shadowlands Patch 9.2
There are no changes with Talents and Racials for Protection Warriors in Patch 9.2.
Rotations and Strategy in Shadowlands Patch 9.2
There are no changes with Rotations and Strategy for Protection Warriors in Patch 9.2.
Gear and Legendaries in Shadowlands Patch 9.2
With tier sets coming back, the new set bonuses look very attractive for Protection Warriors to pick up:
2-Set
-
怒意迸发
- Consuming 30 rage grants a stack of Outburst, upon reaching 8 stacks of Outburst your next
盾牌猛击
or
雷霆一击
are 200% more effective, or your next
无视苦痛
is 50% more effective.
4-Set
-
怒意迸发
-
天神下凡
increases your damage dealt by an additional 10% and decreases damage taken by 10%.
天神下凡
instantly grants 8 stacks of Outburst.
The 2 set seems like it will be a bit lacklustre, whilst it does bolster your damage or self-healing, it probably won't be enough to make a Prot Warriors damage meaningful in the arena.
The 4 set looks stronger, helping you deal increased damage during your main offensive cooldown, increasing your pressure by quite a big margin, but again I'm not sure if it will be enough to make a Prot Warrior more viable in the arena.
Overall, even though these are strong set bonuses, I don't think they change much when it comes to a Protection Warriors viability in the arena. They are definitely worth picking up if you want to try it out in arena since they will increase your damage, which is what a Protection Warrior lacks.
Covenants in Shadowlands Patch 9.2
The double legendary system also means that Kyrian will benefit the most from this, picking up
极乐伟力
passively which can help a ton with offensive setups.
That being said, Necrolord is also promising for Protection Warriors, given that
荣耀
is more powerful with Protection, which could be more potent in compositions where you rely on your
征服者战旗
windows with your DPS partners to slay the enemy team!
Night Fae feels rather lacking with a Protection Warrior, considering it will be the only time you deal big damage, making it easy for the opponents to deal with if they know about it.
Venthyr will be the worse choice, considering it will make you deal less single target damage overall, as well as not provide any team benefits, making it the weakest Covenant choice.
Guide Overview
Talents & Racials
Talents are an important choice in PvP. This page will take you through each of the talents and PvP talents, giving advice on which ones will best suit your playstyle and which build is currently the strongest. Racials can also be important in PvP since many offer extra crowd control or escapes. See our Racials section on this page if you are starting a new character or considering a change!
Rotations & Strategy
While rotations aren't as clear-cut in PvP, it is essential to know how to maximise your output where possible to help turn the tide of a match. Strategy is another key element of PvP that can make or break a match. Our Rotations and Strategy page covers what you need to know about your important cooldowns, using your utility to your best advantage, and even common mistakes to avoid making.
Gear
The Gear and Legendaries page of this guide covers how gear works for PvP in Shadowlands, and how to obtain gear through PvP Vendors and The Great Vault. On this page you will also find the best stat priority and what each stat does for your specialization, the best pieces of gear including legendaries, as well as which enchants and gems you should use for your gear. It also covers how to make your all-important trinket choice for PvP.
Covenants
Covenants are a key feature of the Shadowlands expansion. Your choice of Covenant, Soulbind, and Conduits can have a large impact on your gameplay. Learn which are the strongest for your specialization here.
Macros & Addons
Macros and addons can assist with streamlining your gameplay. Macros can make your gameplay more fluid, and addons provide important information that can help you make decisions before, during, or after an arena match. Find out which macros and addons are best for your specialization here.

Protection Warrior in Patch 9.1.5
Protection Warriors are still an extinct breed in PvP and unfortunately looks to remain that way in PvP. Having poor damage really hurts the spec, as well as not being too great at peeling magical pressure. Protection warrior is great at mitigating physical damage, which is only great into a handful of compositions. With its weak damage and vulnerability to magic damage, I don't see protection warriors becoming a top tier or even mediocre spec in PvP arena. That being said, their are a few comps that could make it work at lower ratings, if you'd rather play this spec than its DPS counterparts.
The buff to
罪孽冲动
is essentially useless for Prot Warriors in PvP.
The nerf to the damage aspect of
极乐伟力
hurts a little bit but ultimately won't change much, as this legendary will still be the go-to nearly all the time as a Kyrian Warrior.
