Man most of these creator guides are a similar format to yours my dude BUT the one difference is you have a quick 1 fight run through at the end. That’s why you’re the man. All the other guys just say “there’s no rotation for tanks it’s all situational” but this man shows you a quick gameplay sample to give you an idea of what the rotation would look like. Absolute GigaChad. Thanks for the run down Dorks!
the question that I really need to ask, where is the skill bar? all the youtubers/streamers are knowing exactly what to press and dreaming on the skills/macros? I need to see my skills on the bar, where are the skills?
@@allan293-f8c No buddy. That 2 line bars at the middle of the screen is an addon that shows all skills and cds he needs to know. And the skill bar he (and a lot of ppl) doesn't need to see because he knows the keybinds. A lot of content creators (and the ppl that are REALLY tryhard) have a keybind logic so they awalys know what kind of skill is binded on each key
@@raphaelcoelho9466why would you call people who memorize their keybinds or have keybind logic tryhards, it’s just muscle memory tbh I quit on shadowlands can eback in TWW and rebinded everything, then was surprised later when my muscle memory kicked in and i started pressing the old keybinds i had by mistake so i reverted back to those as i remembered them xD
Maybe the best guide I ever seen. Simple, quick, to the point... You are not trying to showoff... Thanks. I'm coming back on WOW since we did M'uru pre nerf, and I'm more confident now.
Pretty quick, specific and easy to follow guide. Really apreciate the work your are putting to create this type of content. Helped me a lot to progress into the M+ tanking universe. Great Job Dorki!
Thank you for building this. This is exactly what I needed. I've been nervous about maining prot warrior, since none of my friends play this spec, but you eased my fears. Your video is easy and clean to follow. I'm going to watch this a few times and put it into practice. Thank you also for the fight at the end. It's so helpful to see you do the things. Look forward to more videos!
Thanks! After 13 years playing DPS, I wasn't happy and motivated to continue playing, but the Idea of starting to tank motivated me to play again, I like to learn new stuff and your videos are definitelly helping me a lot!
Thanks for the tips Dorki, I was overthinking this spec w/ Revenge but playing it like you said is awesome, enjoying playing the game and actually getting in with groups now. You’re doing the Lord’s work
This is what I like in a tutorial. You show it's done against just talking on and on. In this regard, I do miss miss Preach's class tutorials as he always show gameplays whenever he does tutirials and even having less than optimal gears at that. Too bad he isn't streaming wow now.
Love your content Dorki, your videos are so easy to follow and understand. Has anything drastically changed in the last 4 months? Would love to see a new video from you on Protection Warriors. Thanks again for all the help man.
Great guide as always! I know MT is the recommended build to play, but I've been slamming in dungeons playing Colossus. the damage it does is great and I feel it's just as tanky as MT.
I’m a bit behind already (still getting used to returning to retail and catching up on everything, took my time leveling, etc) but I’m really looking forward to tanking some dungeons on my warrior main this week. Thanks for the great primer.
Really thanks for this one! I've leveled my war to 70 in prepatch to get it ready as alt for TWW but I was a bit concerned about not being able to keep up with rage overcap/procs and it felt so wasted... Now I now I've put too much focus on Revenge (was mostly farming echos so Ignore Pain wasn't that useful since I've barely took any dmg).
Doesn't matter if its useful or not. You are doing most damage with your rage generators und ignore pain is perfect to dump a lot of rage to reset your shield slam and get your avatar cd down fast, so it lines with your other cds perfectly.
prot warrior is very straightforward. i like everything mentioned in the vid but i'm also leaning more towards colossus because of the bigger ignore pains, the better critical blocks and the option to use demolish as a dmg cd for packs your dps arent using cds for or using it for the 15% DR. theres also play for using it as anti-stun/pushback. lastly, a small thing but i also value crit higher than verse as we all know crit = parry and you get double the parry value when compared to verse dr
oh and i think theres more value in skipping champion spear's follow up talents and instead picking up roar. also skipping unstoppable force as colossus
really good guide , you dont juste talk about ability you also show the icon associated with each one with nice animation , really important for new , also one question at 3:00 - 3:14 , i dont understand , the biggest the shield is , the more i block ?? , what is the biggest shield transmo you use mate
I thought you had said you were maining BDK. I'm pumped you did the warrior video first though. Definitely helped me on a few things I was ignorant about. Great vid homie
I'm guessing you'll update them, but your MDT routes are all from past season FYI. I'd either update that or remove from the video links. Ty for the vid Dorki!
So my GF asked me to tank and I've been sampling prot. Thunder Blast is hitting for 500k a target and I'm not even high enough ilvl to get into heroics yet. I think I'm gonna like this class lmao.
I find Intervene to be "decent" at least in most dungeons. Yeah, you "lose" the additional stop, but stops are only "okay" now with mobs recasting anyway. At absolute worst it saves the FDK from killing themselves on pull with a gigantic Obliterate and at best you external someone for like 10% of their health on a magic damage raidwide. Also has situational usefulness in terms of getting out of melee without using heroic leap.
you can also intervene some huge abilities which is why he put the importance or it out there. it 100% stops the damage of first boss nws frontal on the player, tank takes the damage anyways and you can do every one of them
Well structured Guide! but I´m missing a sentence or two regarding Violent Outburst and Execute. I tryed this build and it can take like twice the punishment of my favorite Colossus build, however it also deals like only halv the dmg, so... I gues for content you outgear (Mid-Low tier m+) Colossus is way stronger (where/for this talent build and playstyle does not work at all btw).
Thx for the video! Little question, when i use charge and shieldcharge i only get 20 rage. When I delay the shieldcharge a little bit I get the 60. Is that supposed to be? :)
What about swapping the Bloodsurge talent for Disrupting Shout in the class tree. So far I haven't missed the bit of extra rage from Bloodsurge... In fact it's easier to not over cap. But having an instant cast aoe interrupt is MASSIVE. Slightly shorter cooldown than sigil of silence even.
bloodsurge is too valuable in higher keys but you can drop ravager/bsv for disrupting shout. the way disrupting shout works requires interrupting the actual cast instead of silencing like vdh
Great video thanks Dorki, is there a chance that you make for dk too? Also i guess i have to dump my rage on ignore pain even tho if i had max absorb thanks for the insight
Hey maybe you see this. Great guide. I really want to get into tanking with my warri but I often have the problem that I cant hold aggro when i'm not using Revenge frequently enough. How do you tank such big groups without it? I really dont get it =/ I'm currently at ilvl 582. Didnt do any M0 or Raid so far, only HC and world content. Thanks again for the nice guide!
Great guide. thank you! In BFA we had a WA to track what % our IP was at since each cast only did 70% of the total ignorable amount. I still have that same weakaura but seems like it doesn't matter anymore, do you track that? I don't see it on your bars but you could just know based on the amount
Can I ask a question as a new Prot warrior? I noticed in the build that Intimidating Shout. Is that needed for new content? It does lead to Spell Reflection but so does taking Frothing Berserker. Just curious about the selection.

I was SHOCKED when he did that, pro move..

This is the perfect style of video guides. Literal 10/10 structure. I hope you do this for every spec lmfao
also wtf ive watched your videos for years and haven't been subbed. my bad playboy
Maybe the best guide I ever seen. Simple, quick, to the point... You are not trying to showoff... Thanks.

this is what i call a perfect guide. quick to the point with all of the most important tips. great content

These videos are the perfect primers. All the info you need, well-presented, and not overly long. Great work!

Best no bullshit guide on the web for someone starting out on prot war thanks man.
I appreciate you making content for us mole people.
Thanks for the tips Dorki, I was overthinking this spec w/ Revenge but playing it like you said is awesome, enjoying playing the game and actually getting in with groups now. You’re doing the Lord’s work
Love the step-by-step pull walkthrough at the end. Good to see your thought process going into a pull
jorkin 🤝 dorkin
Im so happy to main prot warrior for the first time! LETS GO!
Rolled a war today got it to 80 havent had fun tanking ever since TWW prot. sick guide brother
Amazing video, hits all the points without any of the preamble, long winded anecdotes or prerequisite expectations.
Please continue to more like this!
Thanks man! This was the best class guide ive seen! Helped alot. Keep it up 🔥
Been waiting for this to drop so I could see how I was doing on build. Thx Dorki
This is what I like in a tutorial. You show it's done against just talking on and on. In this regard, I do miss miss Preach's class tutorials as he always show gameplays whenever he does tutirials and even having less than optimal gears at that. Too bad he isn't streaming wow now.
Really good info stressing always keeping shield slam and thunder clap on cooldown. Great guide, love prot warrior going into tww
Such a good video. Goes precisely into all the important points. Thank you.
Great and detailed guide. Loving the content. Keep up the good work
Just got back from a hiatus and wanted to try tanking for this expansion. Thanks a lot for this video!
Great Format. Get the information you need and get out.
Top tier content creator.
thanks for a simple and good guide as always 🤙💯 tanked +4s at 582 :D
TLDR: Keep everything on cooldown! Don't press revenge unless it's the last option. Got it.
Honestly tho, thanks for the guide :D
Thanks for the guide!! very useful and thanks for the tip the charge into a shield charge!! never thought of it
Thanks Dorki keep these coming!! Guardian/VENG/BLOOD DK haha would be awesome!
Perfect guide, tanked for the first time and it was a breeze
Very easy to follow for a guy who never tanked. Thank you
Thank you for this Dorki much love ❤️
keeping everything on cooldown exept for revenge ! got it ! thanks man . great guide .
Love your content Dorki, your videos are so easy to follow and understand. Has anything drastically changed in the last 4 months? Would love to see a new video from you on Protection Warriors. Thanks again for all the help man.
Coming from a healer to a tank role this video is amazing! I changed Growl for Dorki😅
I'm tanking much better now. Thanks for the tips.
Excellent guide thank you so much
Great guide as always! I know MT is the recommended build to play, but I've been slamming in dungeons playing Colossus. the damage it does is great and I feel it's just as tanky as MT.
Top tier 👍
I really hope you also make one for blood (well also all the other, but that might be a tall order so close too launch)
Crazy clean understandable guide thanks dorki and wanna ask if you gonna do VDH guide also thanks !
I’m a bit behind already (still getting used to returning to retail and catching up on everything, took my time leveling, etc) but I’m really looking forward to tanking some dungeons on my warrior main this week. Thanks for the great primer.
Pretty sure this is the only good guide for this
Dorki, Champion of the People. S+ tier guide
Wonderful guide. I came to the comments section looking for the link of your talents but unfortunately nothing 😂♥️
Bruh prot feels gooood. Not my main due to raid, but it’s such a good time
Do I tank? No, Do I play warrior? No, did watch the whole thing? Yes... Yes I did.
His mitigation is insane
Thanks, a very useful guide helped me a lot. was having problems grouping up mobs. This has helped me improve my tanking a lot
Really thanks for this one! I've leveled my war to 70 in prepatch to get it ready as alt for TWW but I was a bit concerned about not being able to keep up with rage overcap/procs and it felt so wasted...

Great video! Helps a lot
So basically: Send 157 stuff on cooldown. I can do that. Thanks
Yessss! Thank you
Awesome as alwayys. Thank you
Hey Dorki Ty for the Vid :) i wish there was someone to make a WA for that blockable / reflect info tho to shout in situations which u can pop to help
Thank you, nice and clear explenation
thanks for the guide!
Dorki of the mole

ONLY DORKI PUT PROT WARRIOR #1 ON HIS TIER LIST
Nope been seeing it 😤
Susanaoo
Only recommendation I need
prot warrior is very straightforward. i like everything mentioned in the vid but i'm also leaning more towards colossus because of the bigger ignore pains, the better critical blocks and the option to use demolish as a dmg cd for packs your dps arent using cds for or using it for the 15% DR. theres also play for using it as anti-stun/pushback. lastly, a small thing but i also value crit higher than verse as we all know crit = parry and you get double the parry value when compared to verse dr
oh and i think theres more value in skipping champion spear's follow up talents and instead picking up roar. also skipping unstoppable force as colossus
wow i really thought prot war is easy but with all these block and reflects i need to learn it seems pretty hard
Great guide, hope you do one for prot pally
really good guide , you dont juste talk about ability you also show the icon associated with each one with nice animation , really important for new , also one question at 3:00 - 3:14 , i dont understand , the biggest the shield is , the more i block ?? , what is the biggest shield transmo you use mate
Love you dorki, if you ever need Ketchup, ill send you some!
the dorkster
I thought you had said you were maining BDK. I'm pumped you did the warrior video first though. Definitely helped me on a few things I was ignorant about. Great vid homie
Bind Ignore pain to Mousewheel down!!!! It will help so much!
I'm guessing you'll update them, but your MDT routes are all from past season FYI.
I'd either update that or remove from the video links.
Ty for the vid Dorki!
Amazing video as always / There will be any guide for Blood DK or brewmaster monk ?
Great, just on time to swap from Fury :D
Dorkin
So my GF asked me to tank and I've been sampling prot.
Thunder Blast is hitting for 500k a target and I'm not even high enough ilvl to get into heroics yet.
I think I'm gonna like this class lmao.
dorkin warrior
Can I just bind the spells you listed in the video? Can I keep things like whirlwind off my action bars?
I find Intervene to be "decent" at least in most dungeons. Yeah, you "lose" the additional stop, but stops are only "okay" now with mobs recasting anyway. At absolute worst it saves the FDK from killing themselves on pull with a gigantic Obliterate and at best you external someone for like 10% of their health on a magic damage raidwide. Also has situational usefulness in terms of getting out of melee without using heroic leap.
you can also intervene some huge abilities which is why he put the importance or it out there. it 100% stops the damage of first boss nws frontal on the player, tank takes the damage anyways and you can do every one of them
thanks sir. pls vengeance dh next. love you sir honored
Well structured Guide!
but I´m missing a sentence or two regarding Violent Outburst and Execute.

I gues for content you outgear (Mid-Low tier m+) Colossus is way stronger (where/for this talent build and playstyle does not work at all btw).
yeah those were a little less important to cover but ya colossus is big dam
Prot warrior hype prot warrior hype mole men unite
Thx for the video! Little question, when i use charge and shieldcharge i only get 20 rage. When I delay the shieldcharge a little bit I get the 60. Is that supposed to be? :)
don't play warrior, watched anyway! nice vid
hope a bdk one comes soon!
I'm gonna need a waxmaxxing guide dorki
fuck yeah im jorkin over this
COOL
what should i be crafting?
What about swapping the Bloodsurge talent for Disrupting Shout in the class tree. So far I haven't missed the bit of extra rage from Bloodsurge... In fact it's easier to not over cap. But having an instant cast aoe interrupt is MASSIVE. Slightly shorter cooldown than sigil of silence even.

@@Dorki yea and its only 1 spell school not every cast after it..
Great video thanks Dorki, is there a chance that you make for dk too?
Also i guess i have to dump my rage on ignore pain even tho if i had max absorb thanks for the insight
Great tutorial! You just forgot to mention Impending Victory or maybe it's intentional?
Hey maybe you see this. Great guide. I really want to get into tanking with my warri but I often have the problem that I cant hold aggro when i'm not using Revenge frequently enough. How do you tank such big groups without it? I really dont get it =/ I'm currently at ilvl 582. Didnt do any M0 or Raid so far, only HC and world content. Thanks again for the nice guide!
Its so good
What gear should we craft Dorkiii ?
W
Looking forward to a prot pala one (yeah i know spec is dead)
Great guide. thank you! In BFA we had a WA to track what % our IP was at since each cast only did 70% of the total ignorable amount. I still have that same weakaura but seems like it doesn't matter anymore, do you track that? I don't see it on your bars but you could just know based on the amount

How about trinkets? Any suggestion? Or just follow wowhead's?
Ty.
All I got from this is, ‘Warrior is lo-fi rage’
What abilities/skills would you recommend to macro, if any?
Hi guys, new to war tank, where I can check for the basic macros?
Maybe stupid question but, why do we take a Rend talent, but we don't have it any where in rotations?
Thunderclap applies rend to all targets.
great vid
Great vid. Can you please do vids for the other tanks?
