This ability (Added in 6.0.2), which is for arms warriors, works just like execute used to for warriors prior to cataclysm, I.E. Low cost, can consume extra rage for extra damage. It's quite wonderful, and I'm glad they've given it back to us :P

at 90 my executes have crit for anywhere from 60k-105k at 575 ilvl. It's amazing!

The War Within expansion removed the glowing border when [spell=5308] is usable. Therefore, I came up with a TellMeWhen icon that will glow when it's usable. You can either place it anywhere on the screen, or scale it exactly to cover your [spell=5308] on your action bar.

It is not perfect. The TMW addon's glow is not as shiny as the Blizz icon glow, but it works:

An explanation for the conditions:


  2. Target exists.

  4. Target is not dead.

  6. Target is hostile.

  8. [spell=5308] is usable for the amount of Rage you have.

  10. [spell=5308]'s cooldown is zero (i.e. usable).

  12. Either [spell=281001]=0 and target's HP≤20%, or [spell=281001]=1 and target's HP≤35%.
