Thanks, I think it is starting to sink in. One thing that confused me, though, is basing this on rogue instants. Since it is a 2h, a rogue can't (wouldn't?) even use this weapon, would they? I was thinking of it in terms of a pally or warrior using it. My interpretation of your reply is this: weapon speed is, in effect, an attack power bonus to weapon damage multiplier. In use by a pally, the proc of a seal of command is essentially the same as an instant from a rogue. It blasts the mob with the full weapon damage which has been enhanced by the weapon speed x attack power dps bonus. Therefore, if the proc rate per minute is the same, the dps is higher with a slow weapon because the damage bonus to each proc is higher.

Am I finally getting it or did I confuse the issue further?
