World of warcraft warriors are a combat specialized class that is able to generate vast amount onf damage on adversaries. Of all the classes they are the only one that does not have magic abilities but this is more compensated by the fact they have wider ranging melee abilities ie: they are close combat experts.

The fact that they depend on this ability for melee combat and not magic has meant that Warriors don't rely at all on mana to replenish their abilities. Instead they use rage which, like mana, fills up or empties depending on combat situations. As the rage bar fills, they can summon up abilities they learn as they progress through the game.There are various ways the rage bar replenishes itself. The two most common is when the warrior deals out and takes damage. Other ways are through learned abilities like "Blood Rage" or by taking rage potions which can either be bought (mostly at auction) or made if you take up Alchemy as a profession.

With groups the warrior is a tank/Dps class. In the "tank" role the warrior takes damage from opponents. In so doing other members take less damage enabling them to instead inflict damage more effiecently. As for taking on the Damage per Second role, Warriors due to their abilities and extensive range of gear (only magical weapons eludes their inventory) can deal out vast amount of melee damage better than any other class.
