The expected value of a given swing is .30(1000) + .70(500), or 650. If you raise your crit chance by 5%, the EV goes to .35(1000) + .65(500), or 675. By increasing your crit, you increased the expected value of any given swing. Raising your ArP would do the same thing, but it would change the base numbers instead of the percentages.

Oh! Cool, well thanks for explaining it that way. I'm a humanities major so when I see all those formulas and stuff I just zone out lol.
Again, I probably won't be able to experiment with axes until much later. Until then I'll probably keep rolling with maces.
Thanks again to everyone for all your help.
Here's my final spec (well "final" is a loose term): http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?warr...3&version=9767
