Its just not as op as it was. No more ridiculously long stun locks basically. That's mainly for pvp though. Pve I would have to say it's on par with fury. Best thing to do is try both. You have duel spec after all.

you didn't say if you PVP or PVE.
arms did get nerfed quite a bit for PVE, but it was basically just to bring it back in line with other classes. it's still quite competitive if you're good at it.

They did not nerf Arms badly. They just made Overpower's GCD 1.5s, but it still has it's previous GCD with Taste for Blood. They pretty much did a nerf to everyone's overall damage. 20% to 2Hander damage down to 12% for Arms, 10% DW damage down to 5% for Fury, blah, blah. Mages got it worse, IMO. Arms Warriors still rock face, not to mention that you can do more things in all specs now. What were they...? Shield Wall, Recklessness, and something else I think?

Retaliation.
Speaking of... god damnit I need to put those on my bars so I will remember to use them. I still have not used them at all since 4.2...

you're mixing up GCD and CD. the GCD change was a large damage decrease over the course of a fight. the CD of TfB is irrelevant in this case, since it didn't change.
the charge bug fix was also a large dps decrease, albeit for damage that wasn't intended to be there in the first place.
there was more i can't remember. so in the end, they did nerf arms "badly", but they did it because it was OP.

It's not THAT bad. Doing a little less damage, but nothing more.
