Hey mate, a couple of things you may have missed with my dual wield arms spec:Originally Posted by thetaurenrogue
DPS Actual DPS Damage Done Dps to Boss Presence Combat time
9,642 9,672 2,601,964 9,600 100% 4:29
The number is not less than 9k or even 8600.
Even if you take away any "padding" (not that you really can on Saurfang due to the reduced AoE damage taken by adds), I still did exactly 9,600 dps to Saurfang himself.
What's fishy? Why do people presume I'm trying to pull one over them? I'm not. I'm trying to offer an alternate arms spec that's kinda fun and scales really well with things like heroism and passive haste buffs.
Also, fury benefits more from shorter fights than arms does. Especially when you can line up a heroism with deathwish.
You'll see in my Fury attempt, I was able to use Deathwish three times in a fight that lasted for 4:47, one of these was cut short due to time contraints. Had this been a longer fight or a shorter fight, I would have done less damage.

Once again. I am not hiding anything. You can see my buffs etc. I have no Tricks of Trade, I have no Hysteria. On my fury attempt I am sundering for myself. I am not trying to make anyone look foolish, I merely pointing out that I have tried this in a live raid, on a heroic mode kill and found success. It WILL NOT beat fury on most fights, but I believe it will beat conventional arms with the correct weaponry and some playstyle refinements (this was the first time I had tried my spec).
Less hating, less closed mindedness. Please.
