i found that as an orc, combat, i do more damage with an offhand axe and instant poison than i do with a dagger (equal dps) and instant poison. not by alot but still.... i guess its because of the racial trait for axes.
There are no oh fast axes at this time in Cata.
Fast oh dagger is what to use due to proc rates of poison.
Even if you are an orc.
Elistist jerks has a very nice combat rogue section, I would suggest you read it.

troll or clueless. still undecided.
anyway it should be slow MH with IP and fast OH (read:dagger) with DP.

i suggest you more carefully read my post. i said that....................
i, for some reason i dont understand, DO more damage with the axe than i DO with a dagger, despite the proc rates.
i understand the common wisdom is to use a fast off hand but, i did slightly more dps with a slow offhand axe than i did with a dagger, but it probably only works that way for an orc.
Then you are doing it wrong..
Not sure if you are trolling or not, but fast OH is the way, not a slow OH.
The orc racial for axes does NOT change this...

You are wrong, plain and simple.

DP is not on PPM, so you get more procs from Fast off-hands than Slow off-hands.
When stacked to 5, it will also proc your main hand poison.

i guess i could try it with DP on a OH dagger, the test i did was with IP on the OH weapon, all i am saying is that i did SLIGHTLY, VERY SLIGHTLY, more dps with the OH axe.
i wish someone could explain it, instead of refusing to try to understand it. saying im wrong is like saying i cant read a number, and thats ridiculous, if you dont have an explanation do some research yourself and come back with something helpfull to say, other wise why are you commenting?
i am open to the idea that i may be wrong somehow, but i would like to hear from someone who can explain it.
When it comes down to it, we
are
directly questioning your ability to read a number.
CP and DP mechanics ensure that a fast OH crush a slow OH, all day, erry day. Your inability to understand that is, quite frankly, mind boggling.
