I disagree with leveling Arms as a Warrior. While Imp Tclap is nice, I'm of the opinion that leveling Fury, 2H or DW, is the most appropriate. A lot of early Arms talents (for leveling) are throw away, other than Imp Overpower. Cruelty, Unbridled Wrath, DW Spec/Enrage are much more useful leading up to what I believe to be the biggest argument for leveling Fury: Imp Slam. The importance of Imp Slam is huge since it gives you an extra attack in your cycle well before level 40 when you'd get Mortal Strike or Bloodthirst. Otherwise you're pretty much relegated to Thunderclapping for extra damage.

Not only will a budding Warrior get experience in timing Slam with the swing timer, but it works if you're dual wielding or using a 2H. Imp Slam allows for versatility as well since you can easily switch between a 2H and two 1H weapons if you happen across a really good item (Whirlwind Axe, for example) in one style or the other (weapon skill not withstanding).

Upon obtaining level 40, you can easily respec and lose Slam in favor of Bloodthirst and put more points into Dual Wield Specialization. Given all the XP quests throw at you now, 3/3 Precision will come fast after the watershed 40 ding.
