Why it works

This is a 31/20 Mortal Strike setup: Arms reaches Mortal Strike, Mace Specialization, Impale, Improved Overpower, Tactical Mastery, and a point in Improved Hamstring; Fury adds Cruelty, Piercing Howl, Blood Craze, and full Enrage for PvP pressure after you are crit. The result is simple: stick to the target, keep the healing debuff up, and punish dodge windows with Overpower.

Might of Menethil is the centerpiece: very high top-end two-handed mace damage, +46 Stamina, +20 Strength, and +2% crit, while also enabling Mace Specialization stuns. Fists of the Unrelenting are chosen over normal damage gloves because disarm immunity is enormous in warrior mirrors and against rogues. The PvP plate helm, shoulders, legs, and boots keep armor and stamina high without giving up crit or hit, while Plated Abomination Ribcage, Girdle of the Mentor, Sadist's Collar, and Slayer's Crest push burst windows hard.

This gear lands well past the 5% player hit need, so the extra hit is mostly a byproduct of excellent PvP pieces rather than the main goal. Compared with the survival curve, this sits near the middle toughness plan: around the balance-50 area gives roughly 3340 HP from gear at about a 7% throughput cost versus the all-damage set, which is a good PvP knee before stamina starts costing much more damage.

Open with Charge when possible, swap and Intercept to reconnect, keep Hamstring up, and make Mortal Strike your kill-pressure button. Use Pummel aggressively on casts, Berserker Rage before fear or incapacitate effects, Intimidating Shout to peel or secure a kill, and Sweeping Strikes plus Whirlwind when enemies stack.
