Ok i got my druid too lvl 70 farmed full s1 epix for feral.(feral suck pvp)
And now i am working on my ballance set but i am very unpopular as ballance spec but i like too see a mage go oom before i am dead and i am amazed at the plus healing wyrmhyde epix offer and pluss dmg i drop mages full s1 with pre s1 wyrmhyde gear.

never new pre S1 gear is so cheap and easy to get :).

Anyways now i am lvling my warior hes lvl 36 what best solo lvling spec for waroir.To solo warior is alot harder for me but ill need new tank not gonne tank with my druid anymore love ballance too much dont want too lvl 2 druids.

I once heard of a guy that lvled a waroir naked from 1-70 no gear at all.
What i was wondering how do you guys do vs rogues and hunters in bg?
I saw 2 waroirs in wsg yesterday that took horde appart in flag room.

If a Warrior is very well geared at lvl 70, They will knock the block of anything ! However, there is very few PvP Warriors. The ones in there is just farming honor for a weapon or something. They tend to go squish rater easy with my Rogue. Once I pop Sprint and hit away at him they can't even hit me more than once. However I did run into some mean arse Warriors in PvP and they 2hit me with ease :eek:

But as per your question, spec for tanking and lvl'ng would be Arms spec. Spec for lvl'ng solo is Fury + Duel wield. I'm lvl 59 now in Outlands on my warrior (Protection spec) I can kill lvl 60 mobs no problem even 3 at a time, problem is it takes me about 5 minutes to kill them :o. But it is do able

Depending on your gear you might.

Warriors are extremely gear dependant so you might find from time to time while you're leveling you'rs very squishy or Rage starved.

I've seen a video of a Warrior with no healer solo a Fel Reaver. Thats how overpowered you can become with the correct gear.

/agree fully

I have completed only 2 quests in outlands and my HP has gone up by 500HP and my armour went up by 1200. That from just 2 quest rewards. I can see how lvl 70 warriors have 14k HP easy with the correct gear unbuffed

With that said, its sad to see tanks with less that 14k hp wanting heroics :(
 
Warriors are like a 30day call account. It's a long-term investment and you don't get anything out of it until the term ends. But once you ding 70 and choose a spec, you are kings of PVE(tanking or fury) or PVP(arms). There is simply no better tank for raiding/instancing, and in bg's and arenas if you are arms and geared, you are probably a match for anything.
The only real problem is that you have to choose 1 path to walk down. That, or spend a lot of gold and time respeccing and grinding 2 sets of gear.

However, if you have a dps 70 that you plan to pvp with, you can always use it to pvp, and spec your warrior for pve tanking, then merely use your boomkin to farm stuff like primals that you'll need to craft your tanking sets/items/etc. Most succesful tanks I know have a farming alt in this way (usually a hunter or lock).
 
In a few weeks I will have

DPS - Rogue (PvP and PvE)
Tank - Warrior (PvE)

Then my Lock caster will be next. Once I have the Lock at 70 I'll have one of each kind of play style and will have no need to roll another char ever again :o

Healbots are for masochists only.
I know this, because I am one.

I have a lvl 36 priest and would say that Up till there i have never lost one player in an instance :p However the play style is borring for me, I just sit in an instance and check the portraits click and heal when needed. I find that ubber borring :(
 
At 70 (Raiding), it changes from being boring, to juggling and riding a unicycle through flaming rings down a highwire suspended over a pit of spikes while being chased by enraged tigers.

It's rare you'll find healers that actually like it. Most do it because they have to.

I quite enjoyed healing 5 man instances with my priest and druid both actually, even if for most of the time I had them specced for dps & levelling & not for healing.
That playing "out of position" by healing as a dps spec was possibly part of the fun though - you've really got to keep your eyes open & be on top of things to heal like that, even with a set of gear specifically for healing, or things go pearshaped very quickly :p
Funy thing is though, I specced holy at 70 with the priest, having been shadow all the time up till that point, & promptly fell in love with it. I repsecced shadow to dps when the guild I was in had more than enough healers for our numbers so I'd have a spot on guild instance runs, but the spec had lost its shine for me - healing as a holy priest is great fun, something I really enjoy.

Love healing, can't imagine doing anything but healing. Raided a lock through pre-tbc and was so bored by the time we reached Naxx.

Since rolling a healer things are far more fun for me, even now in sunwell with huge healing pressure I still enjoy it
 
Heh. Looks like I'm not the only one.
It's weird. I thought I'd truly hate the role. I levelled as Enhance and loved it, so when i specced resto at first to help my guild out I thought I'd just do it until we got some other healers and I'd go back to Enhance.
About a week or two ago, after months of raiding and pvp'ing as resto, I went back to Enhance for a few days. The novelty wore off really fast. It was horribly simplistic, and consisted of 'keep totems down, and mash stormstrike/earthshock on mob whenever they cooldown, hop to next mob, etc'. Maybe there's more to it than that but once you're comfy healing it's a role that's tough to give up. Especially in pvp. Healing in BG's and being so dang difficult to kill totally beats being a 'suicide bomber'. It's immensely gratifying to survive a rogue's initial stunlock, heal up and keep him busy until mah peeps rock up and beat the snot out of him. ;)

Yup, Seems Blizzard found a easy way to make things a little more difficult.

Really hurts seeing those 1% wipes and empty mana bars. At least we got Kalecgos down but Brut is hurting a wee bit for now.
