Level 80 Protection Warrior needs Rotation

[mewmehmet]

Hi, I need a rotation guide for a level 80 protection warrior.
I used scroll of resurrection and got a free level 80 I decided to make another tank but this time as a warrior.
(I have a DK level85 and other max lvl characters).
So as you can tell I don't have any experience with protection warriors and I haven't found a good rotation guide for a level 80.
If you could post a small rotation for my protection warrior then that'll be awesome, thank you.

Should be the same as 85.
1. Shield Slam (shield block too)
2. Devastate
3. Keep rend up (blood and thunder)
4. Shockwave
5. Conc Blow
6. Revenge

It's not a rotation as much as a priority ranking. I use revenge more often now because of the t13 set bonuses, it's a small amount of damage absorb.

You are mistaken.

1. Keep Demo Shout Up (if survival matters)
2. Shield Slam
3. Keep Rend Up*
4. (Revenge**)Devastate is Shield slam has >1.5s left on its Cooldown
5. Shockwave
6. Concussion Blow
7. (Revenge**)Devastate
8. Heroic Strike (Inner Rage) to prevent Rage capping


*Rend should be refreshed via Thunderclap when it has less than 3 seconds duration left If you do not take Blood and Thunder. obviously you can't do this and Rend falls behind Concussion Blow in priority.

**Revenge Or devastate will depend greatly on how much stam you have and whether you've managed to pick up points in Deepwounds (in the arms tree) I imagine it being fairly useful at low levels simply by virtue of being much cheaper.

Ideally you will be keeping berserker rage and shield Block on CD when you have aggro, and will have a fairly high uptime on Inner rage too. Heroic strike should be making up around 33% of your damage on any fight where you have a boss beating on you 100% of the time.
