Tier1 Furious gives me more expertise with my racial (human) also I get more dps out of it. I lose crit, but gain more AP, and Tier 1 Furious is slower. But... I feel weird using a PvP weapon for PvE dps? lol

download rawr, compare weapons
The 1st tier pvp weapons actually do pull ahead. 40-60dps depending on gems/gear setup.

9.7 DPS, 2 Sockets, 3.6 speed, 3 expertise vs. 66 Agi, 16 AP, 23 Crit, 57 Haste. Depends somewhat on gear set up for optimal dps, but the mace will most likely pull ahead in most cases.

I would say the mace because although all you really lose is about 1.5% crit (haste=pretty useless), you gain a lot more top end damage (because mace has higher dps and slower speed) which is more important than the crit and you can socket the mace with even more str gems to pull ahead even further from BOH in terms of overall dps.

Definitely the tier 1 furious weapons. The extra weapon dps, and slower weapon speed makes the 1st tier weapons superior. Personally, I'll be picking these up and let the other melee in my guild roll for the ulduar weapons while I wait for Voldrethar maybe(unless I get tier 2 weapons or something).
