Quote:I really have very little threat issues as arms with salvation. Except maybe on trash (like that matters). You are far enough behind Fury in personal DPS that it's not a huge deal. Blood frenzy does a good job of being able to output raid DPS while distributing your threat to others.Our Arms DPS Warrior has serious threat issues during raids. I don't know how you set up your raid groups, but our melee group is an Enh Shaman, a Feral Druid, two Rogues and said Warrior. This plus the Teir 3 BS Axe makes him formidable enough to have to drop to white hits pretty often. Unfortunate that he's aggro limited the entire raid and can only break the top ten DPS occasionally.
The change may increase the DPS ceiling on Fury warriors to the point where there is a larger margin between Fury and Arms so that Blood Frenzy is less cut and dry if there's only one DPS warrior. As it stands until you're in like T6 gear, Arms is almost certainly better than Fury unless you're caster stacked.
I really never see Fury being better (provided you have any physical DPS and you only have one DPS Warrior) than Arms as a DPS Spec. Blood Frenzy is way too good to pass up. More than likely, as "main OT", I will spec some Arms/Prot hybrid once 2.3 hits, allowing our resident DPS Warrior spec that 2h Fury build he's been pining for.
