Heroic Throw is a core warrior ability learned at level 17. It allows warriors to fling their weapon like a boomerang, dealing damage then returning the weapon to their hand. The most obvious usage of this ability is to make a ranged pull, as opposed to the up-close and personal Charge.

Notes

• When tanking, this ability can prove useful for making ranged pulls. The additional threat from this attack is also a great boon for holding aggro on a single mob.
• The attack's animation shows your weapon flying through the air, spinning end over end, regardless of the aerodynamic properties of the weapon (or lack thereof).
• Most PvPers macro Charge with Heroic Throw together for extra damage as Charge is off the global cooldown.
