Specs

• 

  Arms

  Damage

  A weapon-focused path built around heavy two-handed hits and lingering wounds.

• 

  Fury

  Damage

  Aggressive melee that leans on shouts, frenzy and the risks of Berserker Stance.

• 

  Protection

  Tank

  Shield in hand, this path keeps enemies facing you and shrugs off their blows.

Tips

• Open with Charge from a distance: it closes the gap, stuns briefly and hands you your first rage. It only works out of combat, so plan your approach.
• Bloodrage trades some health for rage on demand, which helps when you need a resource before the fight has given you any.
• Defensive Stance gives up some damage for survival and extra threat. Swap into it when you are holding enemies rather than racing them down.
• Taunt turns a target toward you, and Sunder Armor adds heavy threat while weakening its armor, so the two help keep enemies on a tank.
