Hi, so this is my opener and rotation for when you pull on warrior assuming you only need defiance on the pull and can sit in deliverance. I messed around for a while with the gauge to try and see if I could get 3 fell cleaves in my second berserk window but I could find literally no way to pull it off if you use infuriate in the pull with unchained without taking out the upheaval in that berserk window but I feel like the upheaval up time is better over the fell cleave. Also the thrill of battle at the beginning is to try and buff your upheaval damage as much as possible while also acting as a healer buffer for any damage you take to keep your damage high. If you actually need that at any point later you can take it out but I haven't found I needed it outside of the opener as of yet.

This opener should work for you with or without a ninja and shadewalker, also I've found on a fight such as susano you can use vengeance after your first heavy swing for extra damage during the opener since you won't need it until either during or after the orb phase of that fight if you manage your cooldowns correctly during his first phase.

Note* This opener works with the older pots and not the new 30 seconds ones I haven't tested those at all this patch yet. Also for the berserk at the beginning, I know in the past warrior has tried to buffer berserk start time in between gcds by either waiting for half the gcd timer or double weaving it second with something such as internal release or inner release now; but for the first berserk specifically I found that using is asap was better as it reduced clipping on your second berserk window. Lastly, the reason I choose to triple fell cleave at the beginning of my inner release/berserk window at the end instead of fell cleaving twice and using upheaval on cd is because the last fell cleave actually resets the timer for your infuriate and I wanted to take priority on having that up asap.
