Also, as a more general question, one that I didn't see addressed here (but could easily have skimmed over it by accident)...

Is it just considered a matter of course that being too quick on the trigger with Slam will cut out extra attacks from Windfury? I've noticed lately that I've clipped WF swings several times by Slamming too quickly - I'll see Extra Attack come up on SCT, but only one white swing actually occur. This is obviously a massive dps loss, both in straight up damage and rage gained, and I'm anxious to make sure this doesn't happen. Sometimes, though, it feels as though my Slams are landing massively late as I try to counter this... up to a 0.7 sec lag time (I usually have 150-200 latency).

Does anyone know of a trick to avoid this, something I'm just not seeing? I use Quartz, although unmodded, so fixing that would likely help things as well (since certain haste effects screw it up), but anything else?

Edit: Also, while I'm spouting questions like an idiot, does this too-fast Slam crap negate Sword Spec swings too? I haven't been Swords in a while, using Soul Cleaver at the moment, but I'd like to know before Cat's Edge (FINALLY) drops and I switch back, assuming I don't stay 2h Fury.
