I'm going to have to come back to the whole piercing howl+ imp MS for Trauma as I still haven't tested it yet. I am seriously considering it though.
Editted in the IS macro.
@Syroth
I would have to disagree on your tree on multiple areas.
Kramp covers some of it. But I'd like to add that 1/2 Unrelenting Assault is a poor choice, you really want two points in this.
@pharaunmizz
I'll look into that.

is a much better spec for ARMS - you want them to dodge so you can Overpower - at the same time you have to worry about being disarmed for a bit

No, no and no.
Just for the reduced disarm effect, weapon mastery is a must have.

While I enjoy a good discussion I'm not going to respond to rude people.

To be honest I prefer Blood Craze, its a really good talent for a class who has virtual no self-healing.

I can easily live without tactical mastery.
There's 1 class that can charm and I have no problems killing them and stuns are not my biggest problem with druids and rogues.

Question. Does Berserker Rage break sap? I know it makes you immune to sap after you use it, but will it break it after being hit?
Whats the ideal starting response when facing a rogue/mage team. Assume your partner is some sort of healer, and hes being opened on with cheap > kidney > counterspell. And lets say for argument sake, you are being open CC'ed with sap, and then probably blind or sheep and then vise versa.
not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but this is a pvp thread so thought maybe.......
Perhaps an update for arena strategies? 1v1 strategies are not very helpful tbh. Arms/Healer is a pretty common comp, so some strategy tips for that would be good.

just a macro i used a bit
#showtoolip
/equip <insert 2h>
/equip <insert 1h>
/equip <insert shield>
I find it better to walk with 1h and a shield and just switch to 2h when you going in for killing(ambush)
+ you can disarm the rogue while he disarm you is fun to
and question about
shield slam can be used in battle stance, worth it to use it while going defensive? or vs a priest shield or sacred shield to stop the rage starving?
1. parrying is GOOD! mainly because it increases the speed of ur next swing and negates ur opponents attack. Deflection: GOOD! worth it? yes.
2. Improved Charge: No, just .. no. You can get enough rage easily from ur skills so u dont need it.
3. Tactical Mastery: Why No? WHY? You obviously don't know how to PvP with an Arms if u don't have this. you are at 50 rage, you are about to be kited or the player is going to heal himself, you pummel, you switch back to battle stance, then what? you're stuck at 5 RAGE while you SHOULD be at 20. Also, some warriors may want to use disarm in defensive stance so yes GET TACTICAL MASTERY BEFORE WE MURDER U
parry is not that great, but TM vs Charge is depend on you use stance dance still or its viable just Equip a shield to now(bash)
btw if he heal you save your Op to it, cripple spell power then interrupt with pummel and try be more polite next time, then people will maybe read it then just "another idiot reply" as they see some Int in the post

It does remove sap.
As for 2v2 strategies its something I'm looking forward to do, but in all honestly I just started doing pvp seriously in wotlk so I need some more experience before I can safely post any real strategies.
Against rogue/x its advisable to get into combat asap (especially for non-warriors since we can break sap), because sap cannot be used on targets in combat.
Also rogues will run away after sap, leaving you with a very small window in which to hit them to break em out of stealth. Use a macro or keybind autoattack to try and catch a rogue before he is out of sight again.
What I usually do (not sure if its the best tactic though). Is just stand there waiting them to sap me then find my druid healer. When that happens I berserker rage out of sap and charge+hamstring the rogue giving my partner time to escape. If you get blinded here trinket, unfortantely against mage/rogue that will mean you get sheeped right after, which sucks.

Updated macro section and glyph section.
Will start making arena strategies, but they will be limited to my own limited experience.
