IT's this attitude that has some warriors thinking it's a bad idea to take on mobs more than one or two at a time.

No matter what your spec is, stamina should never be disregarded. 

Any equipment with zero stamina had better be pretty damned good to make up for it.  All the bonus to crit, hit, and attack power isn't worth it if you don't have the hit points to survive a couple extra punches.
