RAWR and FuryFollow

Hello Warriors. I just downloaded and started playing around with the RAWR and had a question for those who also use this: how "accurate" do you find it to be?

Let me tell you what I mean. I loaded up my gf's Fury Warrior to see if I could find some easy upgrades for her to get, particularly from this new 5 man ToC. She's currently sitting at 332 hit rating, 25 expertise, a little over 33% crit, 3880 AP, and no ArmPen. When I optimize her gear with the gear that drops in ToC it adds in gear that drops her crit about 2%, adds a ton of ArmPen (326 rating), and shaves her hit rating all the way down to 244. Her AP does show a jump to 4667 though.

Now, my thinking was that Fury needed to be at some point over 300 hit rating and that ArmPen was more useful to Arms Warriors: is that true? I could be totally off my rocker there :P So while that's a very nice boost in overall AP, losing all that hit rating would concern me. If someone could help me figure this out, that'd be awesome :) I'm more the "nerd" about this stuff between the 2 of us, so trying to help her gear up the best that she can.

with around 360ish arp in pve gear as fury (no grim toll or mjollnirs sadly) ill get around 2600 single target dps in a heroic. thats just solo, with no other buffs besides battle shout or rampage. so my feeling is that arp really does make a difference, because i have roughly about what rawr suggest; 240ish hit, about 30% crit in zerker, and 20 or 22 expertise (would like to get more, but just havent gotten the gear yet). my ap sits around the high 4k's with battle shout up.

so yeah, id say start grabbing arp. the 2h axe from the first boss in heroic ToC is pretty damn hot (edge of ruin) as it has both arp and crit on it, as well as a bunch of str.

moar arp = good, up till about 50%. of couse, i doubt ill ever get a damn grim toll, but hey, ya never know. but arp till 50% for me and then str after that.

Sounds good :) I'd feel bad if I advised her to pick up gear that really wouldn't be the best thing for her setup, particularly due to the drop in hit. I figured ArmPen was a good stat, but wasn't sure where it fit in line from "best to worst" stats. I'll pass this along and hope that she can get some lucky drops from ToC. Thanks :)
