Rating is rating, the point of rating is that they all have the same itemization cost. I think what you're asking though is if it gets converted to expertise at the same rate weapon skill does (and if you weren't you should be =P). The general consensus is that the rating:point conversion is the same, and the point:effect conversion is 4:1 (ie 1 expertise is .25% off dodge and parry) but the wording of any official sources seem a bit hazy on the subject. Someone should run parses to make sure it works how we think it works, and that it does in fact work, as opposed to being bugged.
I wanted to check the spreadsheet but it wanted me to sign up for a webhosting service or something, so I'll just ask: is whirlwind now a better staple attack than bloodthirst when duel-wielding?
