Intro
World of Warcraft is a large game with thousands of items and spells, keeping track of the relevant ones can be daunting and forgetting some is the only obstacle between you and becoming a great Healing Warrior. I suggest installing an addon or my TBA Weakaura Plugin, that tracks present buffs and missing buffs. This guide assumes the previously mentioned tools are being used. If you have aspirations of raid healing, get acquainted with Stratholme Undead for Wail of the Banshee, really good healers try the Secret Wail Tech.

Name
Your secondary name and guild name will help others remember and attribute your accomplishments more easily. Familiarity/recognition is key as it will help you get into groups quicker. Your secondary/guild name should be in some form associated to healing, ex: Healing Warrior. Race
Windshaper Skyborne: https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=1 ... nd-blessed, is king. Next is Tauren: https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=20549/war-stomp, https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=20550/endurance. Professions
1. Primary: Engineering: https://www.wowhead.com/forever/item=16 ... rget-dummy. Enchanting: https://www.wowhead.com/forever/item=27 ... anted-lute. NOTE: Don't have a 2nd account? go Tailoring & Enchanting for DE Shuffling.
2. Secondary: First Aid has Plague Doctor's Laboratory. Fishing has Fish Bowl. Talents
There are two talents based on how many mobs you're facing, each have their own gear/rotation.
1. Single Target (need good gear): 21/30/0 2. Multi Target: 28/23/0 Gear/Enchants
There are two gear setups based on how many mobs you're facing:
1. Single Target BiS gear + https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=12 ... of-shahram is assumed.
2. Multi Target BiS gear + Sha assumed.
3. No Sha/group heal enchant:
Transmogrification BiS setup: Link
Rotation - Single Target
Remember to always hit from behind and if possible pull surrounding weak hitting mobs.
1. The mob before the boss: Preemptively try for Flurry and get rage on the previous mob.
2. Targetting boss: Berserker Rage and https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=403437/intervene the tank (and when off cooldown).
3. Tank in combat: Battle Stance, Charge, Recklessness, Death Wish, Heroic Strike, Spearing Strike, Hamstring, Wail of the Banshee, Disorienting Potion.

• You got aggro: Heroic Strike/Hamstring spam.

• No aggro: Mocking Blow, Heroic Strike/Hamstring spam.

• Tank regains aggro a second time: Challenging Shout.

At this point always queue up Heroic Strike/Hamstring.
4. Tank has full aggro: See how many Blessing procs:

• None: Face opposite direction, https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=1 ... r-teleport, https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=20617/intercept, https://www.wowhead.com/forever/item=16 ... rget-dummy(+Mechanical Repair).

• One or higher: Crystal Restore, https://www.wowhead.com/forever/item=23 ... ed-bandage

5. Tank below 50% HP: Defensive Stance, Taunt.

Rotation - Multi Target
Warning this can get complicatedly fun to try and accomplish Group Comp
The ideal group to form/join and classes to look out for: Paladin Prot, DPS Priests, Enhancement Shaman and Mage.
A DPSing priest indirectly helps us with https://www.wowhead.com/forever/spell=27801/holy-nova, give them some consumes for a smoother run. Macros
Time is precious, we do not chat with each person who doubts Healer Warrior, they say no/hesitant then move on.
Social Macros in order:
- Login and ready to heal for the day: " /dnd Full knowledge of class spec and ALL bosses. Full dung exp. BiS gear/consumes. "
- The invite/request message sent to others, if LFG or LFM: " ok with bis Healing Warrior aka Battle Healer? ".
- All members enter the dungeon: " /p Co /run UnitSetRole("YourToonNameHere", "HEALER") "
- Next: " /p Power Word Fort, Shadow Protection, Mark of the Wild, Blessing of Kings, Thorns on me. /use Magic Resistance Potion "
- Next: " /p Amplify Magic on all. Holy Nova and Windfury Totem is welcomed. "
- Lastly: " /p Follow star, warrior is healer. /run if UnitExists("YourToonNameHere") then if GetRaidTargetIndex("YourToonNameHere")~=6 then SetRaidTarget("YourToonNameHere",1) end end "
Personal Macros in order:
- At dungeon door: " /target YourToonNameHere /castsequence reset=target Scroll of Protection IV, Scroll of Agility IV, Scroll of Strength IV, Scroll of Stamina IV, null "
- Next: " /target YourToonNameHere /castsequence reset=target Crystal Spire, Rumsey Rum Black Label, Elixir of Fortitude, Scroll of Spirit IV, null ".
- Lastly: " /target YourToonNameHere /castsequence reset=target Tender Wolf Steak, null ".
Combat Macros in order:
- Every time you bandage someone: " /cast [combat] Demoralizing Shout /cast [nocombat] commanding shout /cast [@mouseover,help,nodead,combat][@player] Heavy Runecloth Bandage ".
- Proper Mocking Blow: " #showtooltip Mocking Blow /castsequence reset=combat Battle Stance, Mocking Blow, Berserker Stance, null ". Addons
- Annoying Popup Remover Error Filter, removes the distracting red text above your head, ex: not enough rage.
- ArkInventory, bag addon to categorize items.
- Cell (from Github), unit frame addon. I suggest installing my minimalistic TBA profile: I'm lazy, yell at me to update profile.
- Elvui EllesmereUi, basically a UI overhaul, I suggest to install my TBA profile: I'm lazy, yell at me to update profile.
- PlainAutoMail, assigns certain items to be auto mailed to your second alt toon.
- Prat, chat addon, if very experienced at tanking, I suggest checkmarking "Disable Flash for Whisper".
- Scrap, assign certain items to be auto vendored, includes quest items and items with no sell price.
- TradeFill, when priest opens trade with you, auto gives an assigned limited quantity of consumables.
- LeatrixPlus, quality of life features.
- LeatrixMaps, sizeable map. Useless in dungeons, but useful when out in the open.
- WeakAuras ForeverAuras versatile addon. IMPORTANT: Install my Buff Display plugin: https://wago.io/q53sTkWaj Questions? happy to talk about Warlock Tank, Priest Tank, Hunter Tank and more!

Love it Caperfin, def in your wheelhouse haha. I wonder if they'll get funky as the game goes on and add some real healing abilities, like a combat medic / first aid. That'd be pretty cool.

This gives me flashbacks to tanks rolling on healing gear for their Diamond Flask sets in Classic

If you have any feedback about the guide, I would love to hear it.
