Fury, the Warrior Specialization of Raw Damage and Rage That Never Stops
Dual-wielding light weapons, Bloodthirst hitting for a percentage of attack power with no cast time, Flurry speeding up your attack rate after a critical hit: it’s the most straightforward Warrior specialization to play, and the most effective with Cleave on dungeon or raid trash. In PvP, it lacks the healing-reduction tool that makes Arms’ reputation, but makes up for it with constant pressure and a short burst via Death Wish. It’s the specialization for the player who wants to hit hard and often without managing a debuff or a shield, at the cost of being more fragile than Protection.
What Forever Changes in the Fury Tree
Out of the seventeen talents Fury had in vanilla, three disappear: Improved Demoralizing Shout, Improved Battle Shout and, since the October 1 beta patch, Improved Cleave. Of the remaining fourteen, only one, Improved Intercept, hasn’t been reworked: the other thirteen all have, making Fury the most rebuilt of the Warrior’s three trees. Nothing fundamental changes in its identity: Bloodthirst, Flurry, and dual-wielding stay the heart of the rotation, but dozens of percentages and Rage costs are readjusted, talent by talent. The October 1 beta patch removed two of Forever’s additions, Boundless Rage and Precision, and brings three others: Lingering Rage delays Rage decay after combat, Furious Precision adds up to 10% off-hand hit chance, and Gore Drinker restores Health after Enrage, Berserker Rage or Bloodthirst. Raging Blows is gone from the release client’s tree. The November 2 launch notes add two talents: Reckless Swings gives your next 4 melee attacks 5 additional Rage for 8 seconds, at a cost of 25% of your base health, and Improved Whirlwind reduces the cooldown of Whirlwind by 1 / 2 seconds and increases its damage on the closest enemy by 15 / 30%.

Simulation details
What the simulated character does during the 120 s of the fight, where its 965 DPS without trinkets come from (1,000 DPS quoted above with the trinket pair), which effects it has and in which order it casts.
Damage breakdown
Each line is an ability: the damage per second it adds, its share of the total, how many times it is cast in a fight, the damage of an average cast and, for a lasting effect, the part of the fight where it is active.

Fourteen Reworks, an Identity Left Intact: To Be Confirmed In-Game
Fourteen out of fifteen talents reworked, and yet Bloodthirst and Flurry stay identical in how they work: Fury changes its numbers, not its soul. That remains to be confirmed in-game; the build guide will follow between the beta opening on September 17, 2026 and the launch on November 4, 2026.
