Hey.
Why is it everyone thinks only DW classes can use off-hand items?
It's mind-boggling...
I come up with a cool idea for a universal tank legendary, and everyone throws all the flaws I designed it to overcome at me...

Because your logic fails when it comes to the actual tank tree for the DK which is Blood, which uses only Two Handers? Frost duel wielding is DPS remember.

There is nothing about Blood that prevents it from tanking with a one-hander.
For example, if you are using a two-hander as a blood tank, and find a one-hander that is all around better, there is no reason NOT to take it.
Same applies to bears.

Ah, dual wielding has parry haste (an extremely complicated concept I can't remember at the moment) and weapon damage.
Bears need agility not strength.
They wouldn't be dual wielding.

Um...yeah there is: The good duel wielding Death Knight talents are deep in the Frost tree, which means you'd be gimping yourself massively due to the issues that already exist from duel wield.

Right, you are fail wielding a useless off hand weapon that you can't attack with, can't runeforge, can't enchant, and can't do anything with beyond look like a major r-tard.

It would be a massive stat-stick. It isn't a weapon, it is an off-hand.
I don't see how it is any different from a two-hander.
onehander+off-hand, stat wise, could easily be equal to a single two-hander.
Healers and casters do it all the time with staves or one-handers. Why not 2h tanks?

Because weapon strikes need actual weapons to do damage?

Aw man.
The confirmed SC2 canon says Raynor went with Tosh over Nova.

TVT points out what irks me the most with Haven...
The mission setup and outcome for the "Haven" missions. A protoss named Selendis is preparing to annihilate every community on a planet because some of them are infected with zerg parasites. You can choose to help out in slaughtering the infested terrans or to tell her to back off and fight her because the colony's doctor insists she can cure the infested humans (and incidentally, Selendis doesn't take it personally if you fight her). If you choose to fight off the Protoss, the "infested colonists" are represented by about five guys with tentacles in a holding pen and the rest of the colony is just fine. If you choose "exterminate the infection," the entire colony is a pulsating, writhing mass of Meat Moss. So either way, your actions are justified.

Otherwise I really wouldn't mind picking Selendis but somehow I just can't stand the Infestation cinematic. Can't really explain it either

I didn't like Hanson... so watching Raynor blow her brains out was cool with me.
