So often I here people ask "What is the best way to DPS as a prot warrior when I'm not tanking?" It is no secret that gearing up like a fury warrior and going dual wield is the way to go. The purpose of this video is to show that a prot warrior can do acceptable DPS when not needed as a tank.
I do not claim that protection is a DPS spec at all. The spec I use in this footage (10/10/41) is a very close modification of my normal tanking spec (11/5/45). The biggest part of the DPS here comes from the gear, the raid synergy and the use of consummables. I mainly play as protection but I'm also a part time fury warrior. For the occasion of this movie, I asked to be put in the windfury group which explain why a rogue is out. This is obviously not optimal for the global DPS of the raid but was required to try to achieve the highest DPS as prot.
