 These hotkeys are clearly not setup for solo play, but focused on groups.

Bloodrage should be cast every battle, probably twice in later fights as they become more extended. Disarm is very effective, and as shield Block and Revenge make a great combination I've placed them in line vertically. Potions are of course reasonably close as well for emergencies, as opposed to bandages and food. Intimidating Shout is slightly off, because a misclick of that could easily lead to Wipe.

 I'm considering swapping Sunder Armor/Disarm with Shield Block/Revenge.  Assuming I have the Rage, Shield Block helps preserve my own life and therefore tanking ability, and Revenge, with a 40% stun rate with talents, helps to shut mobs down further.  My job is not to do damage, so any spare rage I can get should go to minimizing my own damage taken (ie, stunning and blocking).  Shield Bash as well should be very accessible, because out of all the above skills its perhaps most "twitch" friendly, when mobs have relatively short casting times that need to be interrupted before its too late.

	While the MMORPG is generally devoid of the infamous "twitch," there is an unfortunate misconception that skills are not required for play. This is simply not the case; good group play is definitely something one has to work towards. Much like RTS games, hotkey customization, speed, and efficiency are a good place to start trying to hone your skills.

-As a Protection minded Warrior you are often placed in a primary leading role for your party, and while no class is necessarily expendable, lets assume as fact out of my personal bias the warrior is definitely not.:)  Below is a rundown of a reasonably efficient hotkey setup I've come to use... obviously as the game continues to change here in beta things may need to be re-prioritized.  That is pretty much the key to any hotkey setup... priorities, which you'll see below.
