I fixed your link Sheepy, you'd tried to paint it yellow 2.5 times :blink:

But it won't load anyway cos the Blizz website is going slower than caterpillar on mogadon due to everyone constanlty refreshing to see why their server is down.

I wonfer what Blizzard's 'two issues' were?  Maybe one person forgot to bring the CD with the program patch on and the other person forgot to bring the key to the server rack?

TL.

With what you have there id say if you wanted a bit more survivability, stick one in Piercing howl and one more in Tact Mast. If you dont want PH, you could always stick the last 2 in Enrage, upto you though.

im thinking of a respec tonight, this is to
 
1 - to help me with tanking when i need to (this will generate more thret than my current build)
 
2 - to keep a decent lvl of dps
 
3 - to tidy up my talents (there a bit all over the place at the moment)
 
now i know this is not a strictly any sort of build (still mainly arms) still i think it may work, but i would like the input of some players with more experence than me.

Sounds like you want a kind of offtank build, so you can be a "support" warrior, sort of thing, as in tank well when needed, or just dps aswel as solo well. Depending on your weapon choices (2 hand or dual fury), there are a few decentish builds which could work for ya. 2 hand arms spec (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/warrior/talents.html?0530501035201050010500000000000000005050000500000000) Dual Wield fury build (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/warrior/talents.html?0500000000000000000505000550501004105050000500000000)

For the first spec you can change which kind of weapon it is, for example, I chose sword spec in there, but you can use axe or mace or whatever if you want.

Also, you can move these points about if you want, thats just a rough guildline which filled each of your criteria ish and that I just threw together in the last couple of minutes, its all upto personal preference really. Personally, I dont put points into Protection at all, I plan to stay DPS specced on my warrior, as I am better geared for it, and enjoy seeing big numbers scrolling up my screen rather than seeing big numbers being taken from my hp bar :happy: If neccessary, I do tank, I do enjoy tanking sometimes, and can do so well with my build (31/20), and find pvping good fun, aswel as being able to grind well. The points I put in both of those builds (5/5 Deflection for more damage migitation, 5/5 Cruelty for 5% crit, 5/5 in the 3 prot ones for more aggro, more armor and more defence) dont have to be in place to make a good tank, but they kinda help take less damage and keep a little bit better aggro. I know Dajo has no points in protection and does very well when tanking which he does have to quite a bit, so it isnt neccessary by any means, just upto you what ya wanna do, but hope this helps a little :smile:

ta sinap, yes, support tanking is where i feel that i will be best served.
 
The link i posted is FUBAR, the 2H ARMS is pretty much what I ment to post!, at the moment I am looking at 2H arms, but if i get a couple of nice 1H weaps 1st then I may well go for fury, im just waiting on a nice weapon to decide for me really!

Alternately, you could go for a 2 handed fury build, but it relys heavily on having a high ATP.
