Just wondering, is this build viable as a DPs and tanking hybrid? I intend to equip 2Hs, so i saw no point in having the shield talents. To me it covers most of the important talents in the prot tree, and the arms and fury talents are more than enough to pump DPS up. I wanna know cause i intend to do something like this with my warrior. Love to have some advice on how to improve it...

I don't think you'll be able to tank anything from regular Shattered Halls nor dps them either with that build. Just my opinion of course.

Alright, but what if i switched between 2H and sword and board depending on what i'm doing at the moment? Also, what are the important talents for DPS and tanking respectively?

I'm actually working on an Arms/Prot build on my warrior right now (he's 55 and coming up) so that I can still DPS, but also tank with more ease through BC. Here's essentially the spec I came up with:

Wee, I forgot to write something here and had to edit

With the 2 floater points... somewhere. Either to get 2/5 imp. demo shout, or to fill out anticipation.

depending on your gear http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=LV0cZVVzVMgomdZ0Etoh might be better. [substitute pierc. howl for 5v5 flurry if needed]

you're trying to make yourself immune to crushing blows, imp shield block helps a ton in this situation. last stand is also a must have o **** button if you plan to go down to defiance in your talents.

imp slam > ms for dps and if your gear is well balanced or even a bit stacked towards AP you're going to get a lot more dps out of BT. Getting decent enough stats for bt to work well is pretty easy. When you start to get into a *real* arena team just respec every week for a couple days to 31/30. With gold so easily gotten in the outlands, that shouldn't be a problem.
