Alright, basically i've been playing arms for a while. Arms rotation seems pretty simple enough. if you wanna charge and get juggernot proc be my guest. If you wanna rend > ms/slam > overpower, and just keep repeating Bladestorm / Slam / Mortal Strike and use execute when its ready (I bet you guys get the idea) well anyways heres my

armory and I've been wondering about any improvements that can be made? 47% armor pen rating (counting both passive and stance) hit rating good, attack power at about 3800 unbuffed. Well basically heres the thing, I've been working on arms for a while now and I've learned its soo HARD to use !
In heroic dummies the farthest i ever got to the dps (self-buffed) was 4k, in boss dummies its been 3.5k . The thing i cant actually realize that when i ever test my dps out when i get new pieces of gear is that it goes lower and goes higher. Yes i know about all the crap that if all of your abilities proc so your dps is going to pwn but is there another easier way for this class to be easier to use.
PS. When i get the weopons im so going fury!

Synergy. You need a group that is almost built around you for the best dps possible. Death Knights, ret pallys, feral druids, arms warriors, they all give you a type of buff that can help greatly. If your in a group of mostly spellcasters, you'll be feeling the pain.
Retadin:
3% haste
,
3% more crit
on target,
3% more damage
done along with kings and might.
Arms Warrior:
4% more damage
done to target
Prot Warrior:
Reduce armor
Enhancement Shaman:
Windfury
Combat Rogue:
4% more damage
done to target
Marksman Hunter:
10% more AP
Feral Druid:
5% more crit
constantly, though rampage doesn't stack and mark of the wild buff
Blood Death Knight:
10% more AP
during the fight
Frost Death Knight:
20% more haste
though I don't think it stacks with windfury
Unholy Death Knight:
5% more damage done
to target (I think that's for unholy) Also death knights give horn of winter, BIG help there.
Now I'm not 100% sure these are all the things, but these should be most of the buffs you want to look....
Took this from a previous thread I posted in, dps'ing alone on a dummy never truly shows the full pontential of a warrior.

I do 3k on bosdummies selfbuffed with Jawbone when 3.1 came out and I was able to do 5.5k on Sartharidon not much later...
So explain to me how you do 4k on dummies and only 3.5k on bosses...
You are missing a GT though. GO GO Nax25.

Since when is 4k selfbuffed on a single target considered bad?

The reason i made "Arms is Bad" is because im just getting a little tired of my dps not changing little by little even with the new pieces of gear i keep getting. That being said i didn't mean no disrespect to all of those who like arms but im just stating if there is any way of improvement than I'll do it. like give me an overall rotation of Arms, so maybe tat can help my dps out.
In most raids (full buffed) i can do 4.5k dps (prolly like 5k on patch if my things all proc and crits come in ) but im just saying if the dps i do is good enough for this spec.

Read up on where those things get there damage from. execute barely scales, OP, MS and slam al scale with weapon abd barely with AP at al.
Why you think fury overtakes arms in full Ulduargear? Arms almost only scales with it's weapon. Fury scales with AP like nothing else. You have a sub-par weapon(212DPS ain't exacly awsome) so you do sub-par DPS. sounds normal to me.
