I havent been through the numbers myself, but Ive seen (but not checked) some numbers that suggest the dps difference between SoR and SoC is small enough to be negligable in anything but warrior gear because of the coefficient on SoR. If that is true it makes SoC a purely pvp talent for burst damage, which is a little disappointing to me.

This is true to an extent. SoR benefits more from +dmg type gear etc whilst SoC benefits more from Str/Crit gear.

In non str/crit gear the difference between SoC and SoR is not huge, though from playing on beta, i would still say that dps from SoC in str/crit gear is greater than dps from SoR with +dmg type gear. Though i havent put a lot of time into SoR grinding.

Will give it some extra attention tonight,

For burst damage it's no comparison. For sustained DPS, I still had the most consistent DPS in melee gear, or best-case scenario, avenger-type gear. Plus, SoR is really boring. ><

If I'm bored at school tomorrow, I'll add SoR-numbers to the sheet too. The builds I'm thinking about is 40/0/21 and 31/0/30, is there any other suggestions? I know that One-Handed Weapon Specialization in the Protection Tree also improves SoR if you're using an one-hander, but for now I'll stick to two-handers when calculating, so I've left it out.
