I'm merging this post with the one before it.

I've been doing random "tests" with the various specs daily usually buffed with only Battle Shout and Arms always came ahead by a clear margin. Ended up spending an hour or so with a guild Shaman and TG does in fact get a pretty huge boost when buffed (1650 buffless, 2290 with just the Shaman buffs) while Arms went from 1980 or so to 2488. Since I have zero experience with either spec being raid buffed or the effects of ArP I can't say with any certainty that Arms will be better, but unless they greatly nerf SD or Deep Wounds (or both) I just can't see TG even equalling Arms right now. On top of that I can honestly say that TG is extremely boring to play...virtually 65% of the interaction or so we have right now as Fury on live.
I have alot of data gathered and test performed for TG, and now i'm using my time for Arm models/tests . As far as my work progress, i can tell that Arm warrior have better Base DPS than TG ( that's about unbuffed test on Dummy)
But when it come to raiding senarior. Where you have 10% AP buff, Kings, Imp WF totem, 1/4 Drum up time, BL every 5min, 5Sunder+CoR/FF + BF............... TG Spec will bring you better number than Arm. All of TG spec stats seem to scale very well with raid synergy while some of the Arm spec large parital of DPS doesn't scale well with raid buff.

IE: on same gear lv my best TG Spec test bring me 2200 DPS on dummy
My best Arm test so far give me around 2300~2400DPS


According to my sheet, raid buffed and my TG Spec should be around 3200~3500DPS, but my Arm DPS will stay somewhere 3000.

I'll need to check and double check those model+sheet again and i'll post my result here.
