The Hit/Crit on the Bracers of Eradication completely outweigh the haste on the Swiftsteel ones in my opinion.

The whole problem with haste items is that they give haste instead (rather than in addition to) of our basic stats while providing a smaller DPS increase point per point.
Haste itself is fine (personally I find it amazing, but that aside), but 9/10 haste items require you to give up too much other valuable stats. Way too costly.

Stick with the Eradication ones in this case.

It provides an increase similar to strength; however, the more ArP you get, the more effective it becomes. And while you're doing your thing, you get some procs/trinkets/potions going, making the ArP even more effective. I'll see if I can find you a good post explaining all the details (pretty sure the OP has some details in it), but suffice it to say that it is probably the most valuable stat after getting Hit/Expertise capped (for as far as that is possible anyway).

I have been equipping my gladiators quickblade and popping recklessness/bloodrage/beserker rage and spam execute and then start throwing in BT's into the mix. Is this wrong? or is there something better I could be doing?
Execute on every GCD, and only use BT if your rage spikes beyond 30 (for the exact numbers, check out the original post). Don't do 100-rage executes, the less rage you spend on an execute the better really, just don't waste any GCD by being rage starved.
