OP - you're right about a prot OT warrior being useless in a boss fight. you should really do an OT spec. your prot tree is filled out nicely, but your arms tree needs a little work. something more like
this. imo, as the OT, you don't need to dish out an incredible amount of threat... you need to have enough survivability, which will be determined largely by your gear set, and you will have plenty of time to establish a threat lead on your target while everyone else beats on the main target.
WHRyder - you linked the same build in both links. imo for a DW fury build, you need something more like
this. you'll miss a few % of block and not have as many points in defiance, but like i said before, you don't need to be able to put out huge amounts of threat when OTing, and your gear will be the determining factor in your survivability. depending on your DPS gear and how often you will be able to use SS+WW (or even just WW alone, if your MT does not allow enough space away from CC'd targets for you to use WW), this build can allow you to DPS somewhat comparably with other DPS classes. as a mostly ~T4/few pieces T3.5 geared DPS warrior using this spec, i outdps'd a BM hunter in full pvp epics, and outdps'd a similarly equipped combat rogue (though my WW and SS+WW hitting multiple targets was what made the difference).
