WotLK Low level fury confusion

[betarage128]

So i got a level 48 fury warrior and im confused fury warriors are suposed to dual wield i got some of the best 1h weapons for my level and outside of dungons i can kill mobs just fine but in a dungon i was in people where complaing i did low dps and that i needed to use 2h weapons i cant get titans grip untill im level 60+.

And i remember trying to play a fury warrior in cata and it sucked i heard that fury is one of the best dps specs in wotlk but now im getting the same problems i did in cata will it get better or am i going to have to respec or reroll or just get a crappy 2h.

"low level" - here is your answer.

Fury Warrior is the most gear-dependent thing in the entire game and the worst spec to pick for leveling as a Warrior. You have low attack power, zero armor penetration, zero expertise and probably zero hit rating. You're using one-handed weapons before 60lvl, and are then forced to move to two-handed weapons, raising your skill from 1 to 300 and dying in 1v1 NPC fights until you get there. You barely generate enough rage to even keep Bloodthirst and Whirlwind on cooldown, what's to say about extra Heroic Strikes or Bloodsurge procs.

Just go Arms or Prot. Or you can also try going 2H Fury, which means equipping a single two-handed weapon instead of dual-wielding two one-handed weapons. By doing this, you will bypass the dual wield hit penalty, get bigger Whirlwind and Slam damage, and you won't have zero skill in two-handed weapons when you get Titan's Grip. Bloodthirst's damage is and has always scaled solely from your attack power, not your weapon damage, so it will remain the same. This is also how warriors leveled on vanilla because back then for Prot Revenge was doing like 50-100 damage at 60lvl and for Arms Taste for Blood didn't exist.
