Rotation and Spell Priority Outside of Battle Cry

With the heavy emphasis on perfecting our Battle Cry windows, it's also drastically important to master our rotation outside of Battle Cry since you will spend the majority of the fight here. A mistake here is less punished, but it still is easy to make mistakes here since there can be random elements that happen during our rotation, such as Bloodthirst or Raging Blow critting and providing us with more rage than expected for one spell.

Your Single Targeting Priority without execute is:

  1. Enraged Raging Blow
  2. 100 Rage Rampage
  3. Bloodthirst
  4. Raging Blow
  5. Furious Slash
This is with 4/4  Pulse of Battle  calculated. Sims were ran with 5 minute single target setup.

Your Single Target Execute Priority is:

  1. Enraged Execute
  2. Bloodthirst
  3. Execute
  4. Raging Blow
  5. Furious Slash

If you have Tier 19 2 piece bonus, your execute priority actually changes to be:

  1. Enraged Execute
  2. Bloodthirst
  3. Furious Slash

You actually remove Raging Blow from the rotation with the Tier 19 2 piece bonus since you start to rely on the Furious Slash to drastically increase the critical strike chance of Bloodthirst and maintain enough rage to hit executes since you'll be enraged. If it is necessary however, you should do everything in your power to make sure Juggernaut stacks never fall off. This includes hitting a Raging Blow if you have 2 GCDs left before your stacks fall off, you don't have Bloodthirst ready, and you don't have enough rage for another Execute if you only hit Furious Slash.

Your aoe Priority (4 or more targets) is:

  1. Meat Cleavered 100 Rage Rampage
  2. Enraged Whirlwind
  3. Bloodthirst

If you have the whirlwind legendary belt, then you can use this aoe priority with just 3 or  more targets.

If it's going to be a really long sustained aoe, you can actually move the priority of Bloodthirst above Enraged Whirlwind since you will be starved on rage if the aoe lasts for a long time.

For 3 more more targets (without the legendary belt), you just follow the single target priority and replace Furious Slash with Whirlwind. For 2 targets, you can choose to purposefully proc Meat Cleaver before you hit rampage, or you can just do the single target rotation if you have 2 piece, tier 19.
