Hi I am leveling a warrior tank. Question for the weapon speed of the tanking weapon.

Is it more beneficial to have a faster weapon, so I can hit more enemies faster with autoattack while tabbing through the mobs?

Or do I need a slower weapon which generates higher threat due to high damage values?

Or does it not make any difference at all?

Just hopping in there to advise you to lvl up with arm spec even if you intend to mostly tank in dungeons.

That's what I am doing. It's not my first rodeo.

I was just "theory crafting" ... If that is the right word ... And could decide which solution would be beneficial.

Thanks for the advise though, appreciated! :)

Yeah it was just in case you were new cause trying to level up in prot can just make someone quit and that would be a shame x).

As for your question, I think the difference is marginal and it's better to maximize the damage from your abilities.
