Execute Phase

  1. There are a few options for the execute phase. You can continue with the single target rotation, you can start using
    Execute
    in step 8 instead of the shouts, or you can switch to 2 fast weapons and spam
    Execute

  2. Spamming

TBC Classic Arms Warrior Aldor or Scryer

    We recommend going Aldor as an Arms Warrior in TBC Classic. The Aldor shoulder enchant,
    Greater Inscription of Vengeance
    , is slightly better than the Scryer
    Greater Inscription of the Blade
    . Aldor also provides a quest that rewards
    Overseer's Signet
    , an item tied for bis ring for Pre-Raid gearing.
