Arms DOES deserve a buff, but like a lot have said, buffing arms while nerfing fury isn't the way to go. Buff arms to fury's level maybe so there's a choice instead. Besides the new Blood Frenzy will really give some utility in a group with lots of physical dps.

Maybe... just maybe? They're going to add such insane 2h weapons to the game in Ulduar that this change is necessary to maintain end-game balance?
Just playing devil's advocate here, while taking a break from being a smartass.

as a DK, I was *!@#ed about the changes to frost (my favorite spec, qq, whatever) but I actually am MORE %^&*ed about changes to a class I do not play simply because it is not deserved.
I was able to stay ahead of TG warriors as 2H frost - post 3.08. Obviously not the cream of the crop, buildwise, but my raid needs the buffs. Comparatively geared TG warrs were doing roughly 5% less than I was overall, though more on single-target fights a la Patchwerk and Thaddius.
With this nerf, I see all our warriors just rerolling DKs, or leveling that caster alt everyone seems to abandon around 60.
I'd trade this nerf for a 10% drop in Unholy/Blood DPS, instead of the current buffs they're getting. It'd be better for our overall raid DPS, and to hell with PVP anyways.
Ghostcrawler has stated on a blue post that Warriors where causing too much DPS and the Hit penalty failed to address it.
Unbelievably, despite every sane person in the universe stating otherwise, expect this nerf to make it to Live as it is, barring some absolute miracle.
If you have an alt, consider levelling it to 80 and getting some decent gear, as a re-roll is entirely plausible. It's not like BM Hunters who simply went Survival; we'll be finished completely as it stands.
Grim: You're overgeneralizing Warriors. I switch and rotate all three specs as and when I like, but we have to have at least one spec to DPS in when we're being serious. No matter how skilled you are, Arms is broken. And no spec has ever taken a flat 10% smack in the face - even Hunters just had the ridiculously OP Volley toned down really, as Survival just became the DPS tree.
TBH I'm not surprised....Ghostcrawler's post history has seemed consistently hostile to Fury Warriors. This *!@#ty idea is probably straight out his head.. Buffing Fury was like pulling teeth to this guy, and he seemed like he was looking for ANY excuse to hit Fury with the nerf bat once again...Hopefully, more rational heads will prevail.
Other classes might think we're QQing too much, but they just don't get it....a 10% nerf to TG is a 10% nerf to EVERYTHING we do, both PVE and PVP. Factor in the loss of rage, and the nerf is more like 15% less dmg.

What are they thinking? Fury is already doing !@#$ dps in raids... maybe not on all bosses, but most of them anyway..
You need very good gear etc. to get even 4K Dps, and now they plan to reduce ALL damage by 10%? Wth..
