So I have decided to go the Fury warrior route with my lvl 63 warrior, after being arms spec up to 63. What is the best weapons at this level and should I use fast weapons or slow ones or even a combination of slow and fast?
Seems ofhand misses more so a faster weap in the OH should negate some dmg lost?

A fury Warrior is like a rogue on Steriods :D

On my rogue I have a Damage blade and a speed dagger.
So i would assume same would be for a fury warrior.

Just my 2c
 
yes, slow main hand and quick offhand is best. little to do with negating lost dmg. the more you hit, the more rage you get.. main hand remains slow as abilities are based on it's damage range, +hit is very important for duel wielding (rogues/warriors) in pve, so pickup as much as you can :)
 
Also remember to stack attack power and crit%, but this goes without saying. If you are unfamiliar with the Bloodthirst mechanic (seeing as you have been arms up until now), it is important to note that this attack is not based on weapon damage but rather on a % of your attack power.

I recommend picking up this trinket http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28041 asap. Create a macro to use it with Bloodthirst for some nice dmg, that is until you get Victory rush, which is like a scaled down version of Bloodthirst.

About the weapons, yes, slow main hand (read high top dmg) and fast offhand. Since your crits activate flurry, having a fast offhand will increase your chances of a crit and hence proccing flurry.

Hope this helps :)
 
Thanks for the replies, it ideed does help :D
Have gotten myself an Axe of the Legion 2.4 attack speed for main hand, and will see if I can get something for the offhand in the 1-2 attack speed range. Still using my Rend's OH from UBRS which is nice but is also a bit low dmg/stat wise compared to TBC weapons.

Enchants on the weapons? +15 agility on Ofhand I guess and something with a proc on the main hand?


My innitial reason of asking was due to the fact that I have two Axes of the legion with each +14 Axe skill rating (thus +8 axes at lvl 63) which could help hit rating, but maybe I will just sell the one and buy an enchant.
 
Shadowsong, but have the advantage of having lots and lots of enchanting mats :P

If only the recipy would drop...
 
Got myself Crusader on my main hand, and it aint all that bad. Will prob scale down a lot as I level up.

BTW went against some of the sugestions here and have two Axes of the Legion equiped now (2.4 attack speed) It might be a bit slower and I may miss more than with a fast weapon, but with the higer armour of outland mobs the two higher dps weapons seems to be carving nicely through most mobs even 2 levels higher than me. (think I just need to boost my % hit rate a bit more at 0.65% atm +7 rating :( )
