This is my first wotlk character and I'm approaching 80 and have leveled fury so far. I've been asking around which is better for raid dps, fury or arms. Mostly I get mixed responses with arms probably getting the greater thumbs up.
Now I decided to suggest this topic to the smartest WoWers in the world, Wowhead users, and see your responses.

I´ll say to u go to fury after geeting the hit cap. For raiding its better cuz Rampage its nice for raiding, and fury generate less threat .
As arms ull have a nice dps too, depending of ur rotation, but ull generate more aggro and then ull have more chance to wipe the raid.
idk man, like to other ppl said, go with the one that u enjoy xP.
If aggro is a problem your raid has bigger problems.

Why don't people just read the answers themselves? It's right there 1½ feet from the tip of their nose. If they can write a question I'm sure they can read one of the zillion posts already there with the answer.

Arms is rather complex, keeping rend up, checking for proccs, dumping rage blah blah blah. When starting raiding, getting out of fire on ground > doing 1900 instead of 1800 dps.
Fury is much easier to dps with while standing where you should stand if your inexperienced. Stick with fury for your first raids, and experiment with arms in instances and when soloing to try it out.

Actually, a fury warrior and arms warrior, both of them with all Best in Slot gear, can basicly do the same dps.

arms is better dps with lower gear levels, but it is harder to play well. fury catches up with better gear, and especially with 25 man buffs.
arms warriors can't interrupt (without hurting their dps), which is important for some fights. if you like to dps, just dual-spec arms/fury.

I spec both as Fury/arms...In the beginning it was fury till level 80 and TG got nerfed, then switched over to arms.
With arms, you gotta be more proactive watching your rotation and rend ticks. I love it.
As a fury warrior, I was dualing deaths bite. As arms Ive been trying to get Betrayer forever but keep losing to rolls.
Now, since I can create dragon's eye, Ive crafted 3 fractured dragon's eye for +27 ArP each.
Im thinking about regemming to full ArP but looking at my strength and AP, Im gonna take a hit...theorycrafting at its finest..So for me, Im just gonna be playing around of what works and what doesnt. Ive also stocked up on hearty rhino food for an extra 40 ArP rating. Heres the link to my character.

From 30% ArP from gear alone it is recomended to gem ArP cause around that point 1ArP=1strength.
It isn"t X ammount of ArP and X ammount of strength,its the one or the other so if you wanne do it good you'll never see sombody gemming for both unles they just wanne cap it at 50% with one of the 2 ArP trinkets.
