Maybe this bug is fixed on the PTR but I haven't heard any rejoicing over it yet so I assume not.

It does not, but I recall reading somewhere that it is fixed on the PTR. I guess we'll find out Tuesday.

I made a ticket a while ago about both Gargoyle meleeing as well as Howling blast glyph and Outbreak causing a rune pushback, this is the response I got.

So a brief summary about tomorrow... DW should be done in UP and haste>crit=mastery except in AE situations. This post is just in case anyone is still wondering. Oh and Crushing Weight even in normal mode is still better then the Hurricane trinket.

Why do you come to that conclusion? I don't see Crushing Weight pulling ahead of the Cardset (2 to 3% of our total Damage, done by the Procc is just too much)

And for further clarification, the blood tap spec is where we wanna be as well then? Also, how close are we showing DW/2H to be right now?

Yes. About 350 dps in favor of DW with full BiS as of the latest simc. Equal for all practical purposes IMO.
