Overview

http://i57.thottbot.com/en/Interface/Icons/Ability_Rogue_SliceDice.jpg
Numbers can panic the amateur warrior, and rout the bravo, but for the professional soldier they are just another minor annoyance to take on board. A slight adjustment to the set of the shoulders, a quick glance around to take in position, and a burst of calculated ferocity, the swings grow wider, and more powerful.

One enemy, two enemies...it's all the same to the professional...

Functionality

Sweeping Strikes is an Arms Tree Talent Ability, unlocked at 21 points of Arms Mastery. It is a short duration self-buff, costs a large amount of Rage and functions similarly to Ability warrior cleave [Cleave]; for the next five melee swings, all melee attacks hit both the target, adn the enemy nearest to him as well. This applies to any abilites used within the duration as well.

Use

  • Cast Cost: 30 Rage
  • Cast Time: Instant
  • Duration: 5 Melee Swings
  • School and Damage Type: Physical
  • Targets/Positioning: Self
  • Range: Self
  • Cooldown 30 Seconds
  • Stances: Ability warrior offensivestance [Battle Stance]

Talents

none

Notes

Requires Melee Weapon Equipped.
Stacks with Ability warrior cleave [Cleave], causing four attacks on two enemies every swing, each with a standard critical chance.

Rank Table

Only one rank.

Tips and Tactics

Combined with Ability warrior cleave [Cleave], this is a good way to deal with Adds, or pulling two enemies at a time, but both this, and Ability warrior cleave [Cleave], cost a lot of Rage, so timing and careful judgement of the odds are essential.
