i'm now a level 48 arms/fury warrior (22 into fury, 3 into prot and the rest into arms, i'm starting to spec into impale). i dueled twice last night in gadgetzan... first duel was against a 47 pally, i lost due to mistiming my bandage, intimidating shout and pummel, the guy was surprised he almost lost and i don't duel often so i didn't feel too bad.
then a level 47 shadow priest challenged me, i charged in and started the usual routine of bloodrage/battle shout and started switching over to zerker stance for WW and pummel when i realized he already had me down to almost 50%. the whole fight lasted well under 10 seconds. i think i saw him bubble up and cast DOT's on me and that was it. then the ******* said something like "casters are knives and warriors are butter"... that really peeved me.
i use a 2h (truesilver champion) so obviously i can't use shield bash, but then i think i remember reading that shield bash and pummel are on the same cooldown anyway? so, what does that leave me with? wear a full resist... shadow set?
