Caps hit and expersite are the most important. As Warrior Arms you want to get as much as possible Crit Chance if you cant reforge stat to Crittical Strike go for Mastery.
6.Buffs
Battle Shout(Always have this on, if u have Death Knight in your raid use Commading Shout instead).
Inner Rage(Use that when u have to aoe a lot(with Cleave, be sure u have rage boost on Cooldown=Battle shout, berserker rage) and your Bladestorm is on cd).
Berserker Rage(Removes fear, gives you extra damage while you getting damage).
Deadly Calm(For the next 10 sec Abilities cost 0 rage, best using opening rotation and 20% target rotation!).
Recklessness(Best used when u get 3x Slaughter efect, and 20% Target Rotation, depends when you gonna use TW/BL, or how long is your fight).
Retaliation(Counter attack melee damage for 12 sec, best used when u have aggro melee mobs)
7.Rotation
U want to get on start as fast as you can, 3 Stacks of Slaughter which procs through your Mortal strike so your Opening Rotation should be like:
OPENING ROTATION
Battle Shout>Charge>Mortal Strike(1st Stack of Slaughter)>Rend(Bleed)>Colossus Smash>Mortal Strike(2nd Stack)>Overpower>Slam>Mortal Strike. U should pop your Deadly calm in this rotation and spam heroic strike during rotation!
ROTATION WITH 3x Slaughter
Overpower>Slam(Keep spaming slam till you have 4 sec on your Slaughter efect)>Colossus Smash(If PROC)>Mortal Strike>Overpower>Slam(...) Repeat till target has 20%. So just keep your Rend on target and Slaughter efect(When Slaughter efect is on 4 sec stop spaming slam and continue rotation)
Use Heroic Strike only if u have rage boost on Cood down like Battle Shout, Berserker rage, also try use that with Battle Trance proc mostly
ROTATION WHEN TARGET HAS 20% HEALTH
Colossus Smash(only if PROC)>Mortal strike(Use that again when Slaughter efect is at 4 sec)>Spam Execute with Heroic strike(if u have 50 Rage or some buffs to boost your rage, or with Battle Trance)
AOE ROTATION
Get in Berserker Stance, use sweeping strike, use Bladestorm(3Targets or more), if your Bladestorm is on cooldown, use cleave with sweeping strike and whirldwind if there's 4 targets or more. Also if you have aggro on these mobs use your Retaliation.
