Warrior pvp

[entertheshaman]

I have an 80 war and am tooling around with a dps sequence that can be tied to just a couple of buttons. I was wondering if anyone else has come up with a good rotation. There will only be one warrior though i am now thinking a tri box of three warriors with some round robin hamstrings and pummels would be pretty pimp.

I tried this on the dummy which worked ok, but have some questions.

This is what i tried so far - keep in mind IWT and FTL assist are built into these as well.

Spam button 1

Key Press Down:
Mortal Strike

Key Press Up:
Mortal Strike
Overpower
Charge
Execute
Throwdown
Victory Rush

This seems to work ok, it hits the abilities whenever they are up though i am testing this on a stationary dummy, not sure if it holds up with a moving target.

I am thinking spam button 2 could incorporate Heroic strike, trinkets and other abilities for rage dumping.

What i can't wrap my head around aside from doing it manually on a separate button is how to incorporate rend and hamstring because they can be spammed and will use up all the rage. Is it possible to stick these into spam button 1 for example?

The other issue with hamstring is the talent which allows you to immobilise a person on the second hamstring. Which means sometimes you will want to hit it twice.

Has anyone else come up with something for this?

edit: I am wanting this for pvp battlegrounds sometimes just as a solo box when my brother plays him othertimes i will run him with my DKs.

Your software cannot tell how many combo points you have, or how much rage you have.
It cannot tell if an ability actually hit, or was fired off but blocked or missed.

So it depends on how much you want to manage yourself.
Versus how much you want to occur as you have preconfigured, which won't always be optimal but will allow you to manage other things instead.

You can make a mapped key for Hamstring.
You could give it three steps.
Step 1: Hamstring Keybind, Do Not Advance for 2.0 seconds.
Step 2: Hamstring Keybind, Do Not Advance for 2.0 seconds.
Step 3: Nothing, Do Not Advance for 16.0 seconds.

If you were to insert that into your spam key.
It would attempt to Hamstring for 2 seconds as you spammed away.
It might fire off a Hamstring or something else might be fired off first.
Once you have been spamming for at least 2 seconds it advances to the next step.
After four seconds of spamming, whether it hits or not, it won't try again for 16 seconds.
If you positioned this early out of your actions, it is more likely to fire off than if it is after a bunch of actions.



I assume for Rend, you want it to fire off once.. whenever it is not up.
And to then not fire off again, until the duration has expired.
The software cannot tell if it has landed or not.
Just whether the keybind was sent or not, and how recently.

You could get a complicated mapped key that might work.
Probably with a toggle function.
Have a mapped key for Rend.
And have that as part of your spam set up.
Either off or on, by default.
Then build a toggle key, which you manually press to enable/disable the Rend mapped key.
When it is enabled, it can fire off.
When it is disabled, it cannot fire off... which means you cannot blow rage on another Rend when it is already ticking away.

It depends how important precise control is, and not wasting resources.
Versus how much you want to preconfigure, which may not be optimal but might be sort of close.

I use a on down/up setup for my warrior as well.

I've made a macro that is in the same position as your mortal strike.

/castsequence reset=combat/target Rend, Mortal Strike x2, Heroic Strike, Mortal Strike x2, Heroic Strike
Then I have Colosual Smash, overpower, execute, victory rush sent on release in addition to the macro.

I have keymap for hamstring that has do not advance for 3 seconds then a do nothing for 6 seconds.

I use charge and throwdown on seperate binds.

dude that fucking rocks. i'm going to try that out right now!

I have a similar setup.

Button 1:
Down: Colossus smash , mortal strike
Up: Execute > over power > victory rush > heroic strike

Button 2: rend
Button 3: sword & board + defensive stance + last stand (will not be using this next patch but rather the new group wide last stand)
Button 4: throwdown
Button 5: bladestorm
Button 6 (naga 6): cast sequence: zerker stance, deathwish, recklessness, battle stance, sweeping strikes, deadly calm (aka 1 shot macro)
Button 7(naga 7): fear
Button 8(shift + naga 6): heroic leap (with image overlay for where it is going to go and on next click to use it in that location)
Button 9(naga 9): charge
Button 10 (naga 5): hamstring, naga 5 also sends to my DK group their normal spam
Button 11: (naga 12): cast sequence: zerker stance, zerker rage, enraged regen, battle stance
Button 12: Shattering throw (this one turns IWT off does the throw and then turns it back on 2 second after)

I use an addon to watch the rend timer and broadcast that to a fake window that lax added to the new version of isboxer.

When playing the warrior solo it is also great as i have a setup for where most of this stuff still works but theres no IWT and such since I'm manually moving him. (just over 2200 currently)

ISBoxer lets you get REALLY deep with your setups and the new feature LAX added makes it so easy to watch timers and stuff based on video feeds and such.

Uh this macro is impossible

[Shodokan]

Uh this macro is impossible

/castsequence reset=10 sweeping strikes, deadly calm, inner rage, berserker stance, berserker rage, recklessness, battle stance

Thats what i use. Had a brain fart while at school about death wish ^_^ and then i have a key in isboxer that also uses heroic strike in the spam.
