Frost DK DW weapon question

So with my current 397/378 weapon combo, how much DPS am I losing compared to double souldrinkers or double hand of Morchok?

Also does weapon speed matter for DW frost like it does for a rogue?
For your first question which weapons including lfr or reg versions do you have available to you? Your question is a bit vague.

As for weapon speed, yes it does matter. Though I do believe all current strength 1H weapons are the same speed.
My equipped weaps are my only two at this moment in time.

From what I know double normal souldrinkers (403 versions) are BiS until you can get your hands on Heroic Hand of Morchok's. The proc on souldrinker sadly doesn't help us as much as gurth's or some other weapons but they are nice to have.

You should be fine with those until you can grab something better. Hand of Morchok is fine until you can get your hands on double souldrinkers.
Hello,
Have a question re 2H or DW for Frost PvP. I'm still gearing so only at the 378 stage. I could use the PvP 2H or the 1H PvP and Dragonshrine Scepter. What would be better for BGs. I know the DW would not be great for Necrotics, but besides that...?

Also, if I do DW, is it best for Razorice / Fallen Crusader?

Thank you.
Olord....

It's really up to you and what you like to play, with that said I am in the process of getting my 2 1h's on my dk so I can see if I see a diffrence in the 2 (I have had the 2h pvp weapon forever), I am doing this b/c I have always liked/played DW before this season but w/ the way necrotics work I ended up going for the 2h 1st this season and it was cheaper overall.

But now that I have my full cata set, I am getting the 2 1h's just for kicks and to do a lil testing on my own with both. I think overall you will do more damage w. the 2 1h's b/c of razorice applycations, but the 2h will give the necrotics a bit more umph and maybe a lil more spike damage on FS. But in all honesty I think its gunna be about the same b/c of razorice.

So all in all I've helped 0 amount at this time. Next week i'll have my 2nd 1h and i'll try and post some results and maybe put this issue to bed b/c I see these kind of post alot...

But IMO play what you like, it's a game, if you want to be a min/max kind of person there's definitely people that can provide you thoes #'s for you. I think you can make anything work you just have to develop a style that works for you.

last ? yes for DW it's razorice/fallen b/c you want the stacks of razorice up fast for the debuff, and with the built in miss rate of 15% on your off hand (OH) there's a chance that it wont be up as fast as you want it if you have it on your OH. Now the proc per min on crusader is on a bit longer cooldown, whith that being said, b/c of this proc time it wont really be affected by your OH miss rate. Your MH doesen't miss like your OH (aka built in 15% miss rate on OH). So in conclusion the applycations of razorice will/should always be there and so will the crusader, if you run RI/CRU.

Hope that helps...
