Fury Build vs MSFollow

I'm sure this subject has been addressed before, but I'm looking for some closure and reasoning. As an end game player there really is no weapon unobtainable to me at this time, so with no limitation's on gear, using only the most powerful weapons in bwl and beyond Which build really dominates the dps charts. I'm most familiar with the 2h MS build, and how it is played but I've never really delved too deep into the fury tree because it seemed its power relied on being critted on, or using cooldowns. I'd much prefer constant power than "chance" chain occuring events such as being critted on in order to trigger a certain ability. Are there any knowledgable dual wield fury warriors who can shed some light onto where the power lies within fury, and if its comparable to the power of a 2h MS build.

i leveled up with fury back in the days, then they changed it, i PVPd with MS 31/20 build for quite a long time, i used Ice barbed spear whcih is actually not that great because polearm spec sucked, but i compensated for it by using 2h wield spec instead of pole arm spec. we were doing BWL and maldath dropped, so i picked it up as my tank weapon. then a few weeks later doom's edge dropped and nobody wanted it. so i picked it up too and went for fury (doom's edge as off hand, crusader on both). now for PVE this is great DPS, i can easily crack top 5 on DPS chart every single MC raid (warriors can't really go all out DPS-wise in BWL however because we can't reduce threat).

however PVP is a whole nother story, my build is some what odd, i have a 12/39 build thats pure PVP, and i DO have infinite rage, but the myth is actually true, i don't do enough damage. in pve i can maintain 300-350 DPS but that doesn't do me good if the thing i'm fighting can just heal itself or get healed, i can rarely 2 shot people and i don't have a healing debuff.

to make a long story short i'm going for a 2h now and trying to switch out of fury to go back to the cookie cutter. btw fury is a lot of fun and it does require a lot more skill to play than MS, so this is something people should keep into consideration, but MS build is easier to play and is more rewarding given equivalent weapons, so if your guild is doing BWL you should go for untamed blade/spinal reaper/bonereaver's edge/drake talon cleaver/ashkandi. any of those will make you a monster at pvp more than even the best 1 handers with fury in the game.

first off, with the overly abundant threads asking for "best pvp build" or "need help with PvP build", i found this thread to be very helpful--found on page 3 at the moment.

secondly, your analysis of the Fury Build is slightly off. Fury is actually the MORE consistant damage dealers, the higher your own personal crit chance, the more Flurry will be proc'ed (+30% haste) and the more DPS you can get. the enrage ability (+40% damage after recieving a crit) is getting nerfed in 1.9 (dropping to +25%) so that is, obviously, going to make less of a difference in damage done. and the statement about "using cooldowns" i personally dont' understand. In a fury build rage seems limitless, allowing you to use more of your warriors abilitis that the Arms Build.
