Which is better for someone who does both PvP and PvE?
I'm running heroics and doing Kara on occasion but I'm also doing BG's. Presently I have the Gladiator's Slicer and Quickblade and my spec is Combat Swords(as posted by Remx). I have enough honor saved up where I could get the 2 maces but is switching up to maces beneficial for my situation? I do really good as far as DPS on heroics and such but not all that great in PvP. I thought maybe the stun proc on maces would help in PvP but would I be sacrificing alot on DPS by switching?

I wouldn't go with an ARPrep build, I'd probably go with the Combat Mace build Remx has posted under PvP specs. I don't mind a 5-6% drop off in damage. Also, when I come up against other mace spec rogues in PvP and they get the jump on me, I'm usually done. Between CS, KS and their stun procs they pretty much lock you down. And yes the procs are random but they tend to go off quite often, in my experience anyways. I just thought it would be an improvement over swords in terms of PvP.
Also, I was going to ask about gear. Most of my gear now is stuff I've got from running instances. The pieces are mainly 70 blues with the exception of my helm(Deathblow Goggles) and leggings(Midnight Legguards) and most of it has hit rating bonuses. I was going to use my honor to get the PvP gear but I notice that mostly all the pieces have bonuses for resilience. I thought about just getting the shoulders and chest piece and putting +8 hit gems in the sockets. Any thoughts on this? I also have 39 badges presently....is there any particular piece I should be saving up for first that is really worth the badge purcahse?? Thanks for all your help!

I don't really want to waste 5 points and have 2 weapon talents. I'll just stick with my swords for now since I mostly do heroics and Kara. I play on a PvP server and I do BG's so I thought switching out to Maces and going with Remx's combat mace spec would help me out in both PvE and PvP. That 28k honor I have right now might be better used towards gear than getting a new set of weapons. I spent 700g just to get 2 mongooses on those swords and would have to do it again for maces.
