Well it may be asked many times but just trying to work out if I am using my warrior to the best I can be. Well I am fury and DW'ing but I am not sure what weapons to use when I do it. I see some people say use a slow weapon for main-hand and quick for off-hand and vice-versa and it's really confusing. I just want to know is there some theory behind the quick and slow things people say or should I just use my best weapons I can even if it doesn't fit in with the whole slow and quick weapon thing.

Well you should be using the best weapons you can find but if you have the option try to get a slower larger damage per hit weapon in your mainhand because thats what +damage skills such as heroic strike and slam are absed off of.

I'm not sure about the fast off-hand. I dont think it really matters i mean if you have a wimpy fast offhand why are you DWing anyway. I'm not an expert though I've been a 2h arms spec most of the time though im thinking about switching to DW. Hope this helps.

The difference between slow and fast OH weapons is pretty marginal. Fast provides more consistent rage generation and slow provides burstier rage generation, but the overall amount is exactly the same (or extremely close, anyway - you won't be able to see a difference). A Slower OH gives a bit of a boost to Whirlwind damage and leads to a slightly higher Flurry uptime due to the higher proportion of Instant Attacks to Autoattacks, and a Faster OH gets a larger boost out of sharpening stones. *shrug*

It's not worth worrying about.
