sword i think its useless its only 5% chance to hit them. Thus, i woudl rather go axe with 5+ crit chance and mace is nice too so you get rage and stun =D

You realize axe is only 5% too? And a 2cd hit is about the same damage as a crit.  On top of that the sword gives you the ability to get 2 crits in a row which means twice as much damage as the axe spec.

as your crit increaces, sword spec becomes better and better than axe spec as you get more crit-hit,  or crit-crit combos.

Also.... the sword spec proc is on a seperate dice roll. Axe spec gets put on the same dice roll as your crit. What does that mean??? In axe spec if you get a  crit (a crit that would happen even if you didn't have axe spec), then your done for that round. With sword spec, if you get a crit, you still get the dice roll for your 2cd hit. That dice roll occurs every swing. This means that the sword proc actually occurs more often than the axe spec crit. 5% doesn't equal 5% if you can swallow that math.
