Im not sure since Im Ele but I think its something to do with the beans. O.o

I'm using [The Facebreaker] on main hand and [Orcish Deathblade] on the off hand.
Currently i'm stacking armor penetration rating and last night [Forsaken Bonecarver] dropped.
Since my off hand dagger does not give armor penetration rating, should i regardlessly go for the off hand sword for some extra armor penetration ?

Short version of the answer to that is
Frost: PVP
Frostfire: Best AOE spec
Fire: Single target DPS, good AOE
Arcane: Best single target DPS, not-as-good AOE
The specifics of your gear naturally influence the relative performances of each spec.

I still fail to see how Fire would out-AoE Arcane in any situation?

LB+FS+Blizz
*As long as the mobs last long enough for LB to explode, and they don't move out of the static AoE range.

Angelicai's guide to not making money:
1. Attempt to buy up all the Tankards of Terror without doing the math to figure out just how frigin many of them dropped.
2. Plan on waiting a few months to resell them but don't realize that there is a new patch coming out that will drop ilvl 232 gear from a 5-man instance.
3. DO NOT PROFIT.

How much we're you paying for the tankards?? I bought one at 750g, and one for 650g. I haven't flipped em yet, but prices have been fluctuating from 900's to 1200's throughout the week.
You need to give a little more time, Brewfest didn't end that long ago, and as more tankards leave the market there will still be solid demand for a 226 BoE weapon.

Great, another forum where I can't delete my own posts.
It seems Shadowmourne is a 2-hander axe. No concern of us.

Basic Enhance question
I was hoping someone could help me find the basic values for enhance. I was also wondering about armour pen, how good is it, is there a cap stuff like that. I looked around for about an hour and couldn't find it so if someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Thanx a ton, that has answered some long term questions for me, I know should always get haste and more haste but wasn't too sure if I can just let my crit level drop, but I think they helped me clear the query and gonna try re-gear a few slot now.

I have quoted your problem.
The Spreadsheet I believe will be your answer. That rotation looks incorrect. At a high end gear level there will come a time (even for Agi hunters) that Ss will hit harder then Arcane Shot (due to crit bonus).
If a simple answer is what you are after I suggest using the spreadsheet.
Total side note, learn to use your shift key please.

DPS Issues
So i'm not really sure if it's the fact that some of my gear is a bit outdated or if there's just something i'm missing with my gems or enchants. I'm hoping someone can help me out, I'm having issues pushing 4k+ in heroic ToC and such.
The World of Warcraft Armory
That's my armory, i know the fury rotation well WW-BT-BS procs, HS when rage > 50. I'm not one to use execute much, I'm not sure if I just don't have the execute part down very well but I find my DPS stays higher if I just keep up with my rotation. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've been asking on guild and realm forums and I have been unable to find the correct answer to my problem. Anyone have any ideas?

The things that stand out the most to me is your hit and expertise. You are sitting on 8.36% hit WITH precision you want to be around the 6% (164 rating) mark for optimal hit, though stats over are not wasted because they still remove white misses but you should still try to lower your hit considerable. You are also 12 expertise over the cap which is also pretty detrimental try to take your expertise down from 38 to 26 (214 rating). Your rotation/talent/glyphs are fine however (arguable).

You have way too much expertise and hit, as the person above me stated.
You could also use more crit, at least 33%.

I realize that I'm WELL over the hit and expertise cap, only thing is all that is built into my gear so I suppose i'm stuck like that till other pieces drop. I've been thinking that crit has a bit to do with it. At times I find myself rage starved and I know that more crit will mean more flurry up time, which increases my attack speed, which ultimately means more rage. I appreciate the input so far, thanks a ton.

I was always told stamina was an important lock stat and have always focused on SP/Int/Sta. Have I been doing it wrong?
Here's my build
I'm thinking of changing to Destro. I do heroics and questing, working on getting better gear because mine is horrible.

I too have noticed that Onyxia deep breathes more, perhaps your Chalcedony theory is... incorrect.

For the umpteenth time, the stat weights are here:
Warlock_T9_00_13_58
SP=1.58
Haste=1.27
Spi=1.01
Crit=0.96
Int=0.37
Posted many times in many threads. Do you see stamina on that list? No? Then it contributes ZERO to your DPS output as a destro lock (which is the thread you are posting in)

Beware that the stat weights are depending alot on your gear level, I'd advise Avashnea to use the spreadsheet for more accurate stat weights for your own character or even better simulationcraft
