Despite the haste, I'm liking all that strength and dps. It will make a good weapon for my paladin.

I was also hoping for a tanking wep. Looks like that ain't happening.

I'm sure there'll be a tanking weapon among the rewards--it just won't be a sword.

As for DKs, would we take the Str/Haste/Crit or the Agi/AP/Arpen/crit? Obviously Str scales better due to BoK but it comes at the cost of haste which isn't exactly great for DKs I think. I think what tips it though is that the Str version has better weapon speed.

As a DK, I'd definitely take Str/haste/crit over Agi/AP/ArPen/Crit. Note that the Strength bonus is far higher than the AP even before including talents and Kings - 164 Str gives 328 AP, and the Agi weapon only gives 197. Veteran of the Third War gives +6%, Abomination's Might +2%, and Ravenous Dead +3% - a total of +11% for 364 AP, or 400 with Kings. In addition, the Str weapon has a speed of 3.60 and the Agi one has 3.40, which helps out with all those attacks we have that deal weapon damage as instants.
