So lots of Fury threads since the last patch. And I can see why after dropping 4k on the charts.
But I don't wanna go Fury. I love my Thunder Clap, my Mortal Stike, and my hundreds of bleeds and snares and shouts and dashes. I love swinging around one giant weapon, a graceful god of death and wind. I love my Bladestorm.
And now Blizzard and every PuG wants to take that away. All I'm looking for is some spec and stat/gear help. If I can just get back up over 10k on DPS, I'll be happy. Sitting behind the 6k Warlock and Rogue is not fun in randoms.
Logged out in my tank gear, but you can see my spec and what I got professions-wise. I'm already saving for crafted gear BEFORE diving into heroics after my lack-luster tanking attempt in Deadmines (Ripsnarl FTL. Got murdured.)

So what you are suggesting is a spec more like this?
http://www.wowhead.com/talent#LG0cfRMRurkcbZhbI like to do my best in AoE situations, wiping up extra mobs quickly and easily picking up any the tank loses.

http://www.wowhead.com/talent#LG0cfRMRurkcbZhbincite is probably not worth the points these days. i raid with
this spec, which is working well (17.5k last BH pug).
since you're not raiding yet, executioner has much less value, so you might want to consider piercing howl or booming voice for now.
single target priority is:
rend AFTER rend falls off
CS ONLY if the CS debuff is not already up
keep MS on cooldown
OP (move OP to the top of the list if the TfB timer is getting close to 5 seconds since it proc'd).
slam
HS on BT proc if rage > 20
HS when rage > 70
HS during DC
note: you will not be using HS much
after 20%:
zerker stance
execute x5
recklessness
keep using CS and MS as before
execute during other GCD's, but try for rage >= 30 executes.
use zerker rage as needed for rage boost.
use DC early in the fight and anytime you want some burst.
for AOE pulls:
rend -> thunderclap on cooldown
sweeping strikes -> cleave
continue rotation
retaliation -> bladestorm only after tank has some aggro
stats are:
strength >> all
8% hit > 26 expertise > crit > mastery >>>>>> haste
you seem to be missing every recommended glyph >< see the glyphs in the talent spec i listed.
btw, your prot spec needs a lil' work too.
