possible help on fury warrior statsFollow

You need to focus your gems. Nearly every class and spec uses one or two gem types, but you have nearly all of them at once.

Skip the socket bonuses. Put the Bold strength gems in everything, a Nightmare Tear in the best socket for a strength bonus (usually your helm) and get the Relentless Earthsiege Diamond meta gem.

And you need to enchant your helm, shoulders, and pants.

Your meta should be Chaotic Skyflare, not the RED. The RED is for Rogues and Kittys!

You will need 2 Sovereigns to match the meta requirements. Put them where a blue gem socket would get you a Strength bonus. If no slot is available for that, just anywhere is fine. That's about as far as you want to care about socket bonuses.

Gem everything else Bold.

After you do this, someone will probably tell you that you should be gemming for Armor Penetration. Just smile and nod and head over to Elitist Jerks for a thorough discussion on the matter before you start swapping gems around. You are far safer to just gem Strength for now.

Dump Hit Rating like it's a plague. 631 (19.3%) is beyond overkill. The basic goal is 5% (if you take the talent Precision, which you did). This puts you at the 8% cap to hit with special attacks. After that point, a little additional hit isn't a bad thing but you shouldn't be trying to gear for it. Other stats will increase your output more than additional hit.

That hit trinket has to die. Start farming this to pair with the Banner. After (AND ONLY AFTER) you have regemmed, start looking for ToC-25 pugs for this.

I don't see a head enchant but I do see that you're revered with Ebon Blade. Get out there and get it.

Expertise is low but not horrible. Swap your bracer enchant to this and that will get you closer. In 245+ gearing Expertise is stupid easy to come across so don't worry too much about it for now. Goal is 26 but not over.

Spec is ok... move Piercing Howl to Heroic Fury if you're going anywhere near Putricide. And Commanding Presence can move if you have a pally doing Might in the raid, try Unbridled Wrath. Still a crappy talent, but Commanding is wasted entirely with Might overwriting it. Oh, also Tactical Mastery to Iron Will unless you are stance-dancing a lot to rend/shatter. Which, to be honest, you shouldn't be yet.

See Dehlia in my signature below for my warrior alt and feel free to post any other questions.
edit: I should note that I realize I'm way over Expertise and that I proc above the hard cap for ArPen. Waiting on 3 pieces of gear that will adjust these to almost perfect. If only the hunters would stop rolling on Deathbringers...sigh.

The RED vs. Chaotic debate: I've seen math supporting both sides and after 245 gearing I tend to agree that RED could perform better. But that's a pretty fine distinction and I didn't think that the OP needed a discussion on the finer points of meta-gem choices much in the same way that I didn't bring up the tipping point of Strength vs. Armor Pen or taking Imp Charge.

But yes, you are correct that a lot of fury warriors will see a benefit going with RED and if someone reading this is concerned about it for min-maxxing, they should sim / spreadsheet it. But in the end it's not a major variation in damage output for most players.

Yeah, re-reading what I posted I can see that. Sometimes when I type I'm assuming a lot about how it's being read. Or I'm just a bit tipsy and typing too fast to think it through.

My point was more about at his gear level at the time of posting the RED would not be as good for him (due to his Crit). Switching to the RED is more of a later in gear choice than an earlier one. Though I still find the difference of very little practical use outside of min/maxxing for hardmode progression.

Thanks for pointing that out and helping to clarify =)
