ok there seems to be alot of misguided ppl here

yes you can DW arms, though it will never be as good as 2h arms or DW fury

in a nut shell:

For pvp the generic build is arms down to MS, and fury down to 3/5 flurry. Use a nice a slow 2h Sword or Mace (NO AXES THEY ARE SHIT), this will produce massive MS's and very good burst dmg. As for DW to interupt spell cast, L2 use pummell...

For PvE DW fury is usually the way to go. who ever said 'i dont like DW, too many misses' they are a noob, dont listen to them.
Also, no dilpickle2000, bad pickle! If you just stack AP you will be easily out dps'd by a lesser geared fury warrior with hit and less AP. this is because at low levels of hit, hit rating will increase ur dmg more that AP will.
Talent fury all the way to Rampage, then arms to impale.
Get some gear that has hit rating, because until you get to 95 hit rating (where yellow attacks will no longer miss, assuming you have talented precision in fury tree) every 1% reduction in missing is 1% increase in dmg.(not to mention more attacks landing that will have a chance to crit and proc fluffy or mongoose or windfury and others)
From then on hit is no longer as effective, however when well geared you are looking for around 170-200 hit, 2k AP and 35-40% crit unbuffed

However an arms MS 2h dps warrior can be a great addition to a melee (and hunter) heavey raid because of their 4% buff to physical attacks (in arms tree near the bottom), although you will find a fury warrior will have higher personal dps.

hope this helps :)
