Quick answer: A Warrior learns 33 trainable class abilities from level 1 to 60. Battle Shout, Battle Stance and Heroic Strike come first, at level 1.
In World of Warcraft: Forever, you learn every Warrior class ability, and every new rank of it, from a Warrior trainer. When you reach a level that opens a new ability or rank, visit a trainer to add it to your spellbook. Higher ranks of an ability you already know open at later levels, and you train them at the same place. Talent abilities do not come from the trainer. They come from the talent trees, so they are not counted in the 33. The full list of those lives in the Warrior talents breakdown.
The abilities are not spread evenly across the level range. Levels 1 to 19 hold 19 of them, levels 20 to 39 hold 13, and levels 40 to 60 hold only one.
Warrior abilities from level 1 to 19
This is where most of the kit arrives, with 19 abilities in total. Heroic Strike and Battle Stance are available at level 1, and Charge follows at level 4. Level 10 adds Defensive Stance along with Sunder Armor and Taunt. At level 14 you get Tactical Mastery, which is now part of the base class rather than a talent.

New and changed Warrior abilities in WoW Forever
Blizzard’s class changes for WoW Forever add one new trainable ability. They also move a former talent into the base kit and adjust how stances, cooldowns and Rage work:
- Victory Rush (level 20) heals you for 10% of your maximum health. You can use it for 20 sec after you kill a non-trivial enemy, and it has a 30 sec cooldown.
- At level 14, Tactical Mastery is available to all Warriors; changing stances can leave you with up to 10 Rage.
- Recklessness, Retaliation, and Shield Wall each operate independently rather than sharing a cooldown. Retaliation and Shield Wall each recharge in 15 min.
- Thunder Clap can be used in Defensive Stance.
- Sunder Armor threat scales with Attack Power. It also works when a stronger Expose Armor is already on the target.
- The Rage earned from damage dealt scales with weapon speed, and critical strikes award 75% extra Rage.
