Cataclysm Classic Fury Warrior Rotation

    Fury Warriors have a simple priority rotation, but as with any class that uses Rage or Energy, managing your resources properly will be critical to performing well. There are some nuances like delaying a
    Colossus Smash
    cast by a couple seconds to ensure you get 3 special attacks within the 6 second debuff window.

    Sunder Armor
    if assigned to it.

    .
