I will admit that I've been leveling as prot because it is easier to handle potential gankers, but when does arms catch up damage-wise assuming equal gear? I'm currently 66.
Its probably only at 90 lvl. Shield slam is insane now its just better for leveling. Hope for 50% of this dmg at 90 lvl and I will be happy with prot.
Is on that level prot lose shield slam opness or something else?
No,that's when arms starts being very good.You can few hit 80k health mob,takes much longer with prot specc @ that point.
My suggestion is to buy starter gear for arms/fury @ 85>dawn blossom aswell.(for pandaria zones).
As for Cata as soon as you hit 77-78 scan ah and buy all cata gear.Will help you massivly.
till now im lvl 79.
what i can tell for arms spec.
- rage bug, in battle stance arms spec you get 10 rage for every white hit. (it was 26 on retail)
-i dont have damage bonus 25% when i equip 2h weapon
Patch 5.0.4 (28 August 2012): Added. (http://www.wowwiki.com/Seasoned_Soldier)
- enrage from crits (http://www.wowwiki.com/Enrage_%28warrior_ability%29) + berserker rage (spell http://www.wowwiki.com/Berserker_Rage) dont stack for 20% more damage.
- mortal strike damage is low (175% weapon damage)
(Patch 5.4.0 (10-Sep-2013) Mortal Strike now deals 215% of weapon damage (up from 175%). )

i will post more soon when i will get to lvl 90. thank you.
i will try it since I have dual talents but if i can still 2 shot mobs with shield slam, i ll stay with prot.
Would be nice if u post them straight to bugtracker :)
i w8 to level @90 and after that i will do further testing. thank you
I second this post, I lost a 2500 rated match due to TRIPLE tentacles within about 30 seconds , I was so frustrated until someone told me the warriors are broken with Gurthok. It makes me honestly want to stop playing, it is more broken than any other bug here, three tentacle will kill a full cata Resto Shaman in 6 seconds with just a throw-down, nothing more. But garbage warriors who don't reflect any of my hexes should not be trolling 2450 ratings, if this is by design or not a top level bug I will just move on.
The only toon which is having proper proc rates on Gurthok is the DK.
this issue is here for like .. 3+ months, some been talking about this issue for quite a while... yet - nothing is done about a critical, and extremely game-abusing-breaking issue. tho it's even more abusive on rets if you ask me, they pump way more damage in pvp without gurth at all, and when you count in 2-4 nearly constant tentacles ... pure lel.
unholy dk's can only dream about such proc rate, i'm damn happy if i get ~4-8 tentacle procs during ~15 min bg on my unh.
So it sounds that Fury is super gear dependant in the current MoP realms.
Is this because the spec/skills are bugged/broken, or is this by design?
Is the problem essentially a rage generation issue, or does it go beyond that?
Warrior was always extremely gear dependent regardless of expansion. Probably the most of all classes.
Sweeping strikes is bugged ATM. Warriors getting 1.5million DPS during bladestorm +sweeping strikes should not be possible.
