Currently a lvl 34 Warrior and I am trying to figure out the best layout before I spend a bunch of Gold on enchantments.
Here is what I currently have (some is lvl 37 and 38) some are staves or 2 handed.

Currently Equiped:

Hypnotic Blade (Main Hand Only)

Sword of Omen
http://www.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=6802

Vile Protector (Shield in reserve to switch in and out, can not use shield with 2 handed weapons, yet)
http://www.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=7747



But Also Have:

Illusionary Rod

Not to familiar with how Warriors play but lets see.

On what type of weapons.
If you find you are dieing a lot you should use a one handed sword and shield but if you're not then two one handed weapons would be faster on damage if you are high enough level to have the skills that remove most of the off hand penalties which really suck. If you don't have those skills yet then a Two Handed weapon will yield you more dps and have much better stat boosts.


Your current gear.
That Dagger isn't for warriors, looks more of a magic user weapon with those stats. The Sword and Shield aren't bad but a bit low level.

Of what you list the Two Handed Headstriker Sword of the Tiger is best.
You will not find much use for Staves since they usually boost Intellect, Spirit or Stamina for magic users.

The stats you want to boost the most are these in this order:


Stamina
Increases your health points. This is critical for Warriors due to the inability to heal ourselves, as well as to absorb the large amounts of damage mobs will try and cause against the party.

1 Stamina = 10 Health points
Strength
Increases your Attack Power thereby increasing your damage. Strength also increases the damage that you can block with your shield.

1 Strength = 2 Attack Power
14 Attack Power = 1 DPS (Damage per second)
Therefore
7 Strength = 1 DPS
Agility
Agility increases the following: attack power with ranged and close combat weapons, armor, critical hit chance and your chance to dodge attacks. The increased attack power is great for Warriors, as it increases the overall damage output of your character. The armor bonus is relatively small for Warriors since we can use plate armor. The main reason to boost agility is for the extra critical hit %.

2 Agility = 1 Armor point
10 Agility = .0875% critical chanceUse WoWHead to find a good weapon. Here are the Two Handed Swords for example: http://www.wowhead.com/?items=2.8#0+2+1 (http://www.wowhead.com/?items=2.8#0+2+1)
Find swords that have the required level (Req) that you can use or will be able to use in a level or two, then find which ones have the most DPS or best Stats out of that group. Blue label is better but much harder to find. As long as the weapon you want isn't from tons of pvp points or a really rare drop item we can usually go get it for you.

Here go get this Warrior sword http://www.wowhead.com/?item=6977
Or we can get you this one http://www.wowhead.com/?item=10758
Both would kick ass for you in DPS and Stats!

i recommend u go with a 2 - handed sword if u have talents that help u increase your defense and stuff. but if u are not going for defensive abilities then go with the 1 - handed sword and sheild. but if u still can decide go buy how fast they attack and how much damage it does per second(s).

Don't ever pay for enchantments either. Someone in the guild will enchant weapons for you for either free or just give them mats or for a very nominal price.

Eraser has a toon for just about everything. Pst him or one of us when we're on. Eraser is really really good about helping us out.

No I ment paying for the stuff to have Eraser or Dr.H enchant, I know they will do it for free, but the material needed can be expensive and hard to get so I dont want to waste it.

I like how Warriors can Duel Wield, and I would love 2 really strong 1 handed Swords Axes or Maces, My weapon level in all three is pretty well, I kept trying to use the Staves, but they were not working all to well even though they had high DPS, so if Dr.H wants to disenchant them (if you can do that to them I forget if they are soulbound) then they are all for you. I do like being able to swtiched to 2 swords or a sword and a shield for dungeons (since I am always the low level in the group lol), but we will see what I can get I guess.

Thanks for all your input.

Duel wielding will be stronger that 2H as a Fury spec higher on I believe level 60 or something? I'm not really sure, until then it's mainly for looks. The differences in PVE probably aren't all that important so you end up just picking what you like.

Looking forward to Titan's Grip so I can Duel Wield 2 handed weapons.

I only ask for mats for high level stuff usually, i can't imagine that your level enchants will be expensive. btw, for all i can handle all needs regarding the following professions.

Alchemy
Inscription
Jewelcrafting
Blacksmithing
Engineering
Leatherworking
Enchanting

I can do tailoring, but my tailor is an alliance character, makes it kinda difficult to pass stuff around.

Lol Eraser has one of everything :p.

The Professions I can currently offer are:

DrH
450 Jewelcrafting

Luminose
310 Enchanting
300 Tailoring

I only have basic leatherworking on my level 10 Warlock but I might be dumping that character and starting some on my Death Knight who I will do Leatherworking on instead... I just don't like Death Knights lol.

Remember if one of us doesn't have a recipe for what you want another might.

Tanto is not a stupid name, even if it means stupid. My alchemist/herboligist is named Dognuts. no that's stupid.

Seeing the WoW servers have been down all day i wonder if they are getting the instances to work again if so does anyone want to do one with me. i could use some good lvl 20 and above weapons. recently i can only get on from around 4:30 PM - 9~10:00 PM EST. Seeing school has started., but that may change later this year if things r going good.
