i would go for the lfr weapon. but it might be worth to post the stats in a bg(since it will scale down) but most of the time 496+ pve itemis better then 476 item.
Go for the 470 weapon, the extra pvp power i very very usefull, trust me
I very much doubt the lfr weapon is better for pvp. The ~12% flat damage increase is a huge bonus, and the raid weapon even gets scaled back a little in instanced pvp.
If you need to know for sure, do a test on some training dummies with recount or skada and compare the difference with the pvp power you miss out on. Because of the ilvl scaling in bgs, the lfr weapon will test a little stronger than it will actually play as, but I doubt you'll see an increase anywhere near what the pvp power is worth.
What class/spect do you play? That would help `
http://ptr.wowdb.com/items/97457-scissors is not a sword... or at least thats what my mom told me when I was 6.
26 ilvls would give you more than 12% extra damage
I would say the honor weapon, since im assuming your a BM hunter and so weapon damage isnt all that important compared to other classes and the pvp power is a big difference from the weapon.
That said, grinding out 3500 conquest for your tyrnannical weapon is pretty easy (especially as a hunter). Run a double dps comp in 2s for a few hours and there ya go.
Definitely the honor weapon.
I'd never switch a PvP weapon for a PvE one. Trinkets? Sure. Weapon? No way.
Probably the LFR weapon, but either would be fine!
