As if there's any reason to try to 'roll' Deep Wounds as Fury. Arms might care, but only because if Deep Wounds is up they can get a DPS boost by allowing Rend to drop off for a GCD while Deep Wounds maintains Arms's bleed debuffs.

Deep Wounds is purely extra crit damage. It'll do the same damage (on average) whether the procs are tightly spaced or evenly spread out.

With one caveat: like Ignite, it's possible for Deep Wounds ticks to be munched. In fact, the biggest difference between the two talents is that Deep Wounds looks at weapon damage instead of the damage of the ability that caused the proc.

Deep Wounds is also, incidentally, another place where SMF falls behind, since with more frequent weapon strikes it's more likely to have some of those ticks get munched. I suspect that even without munching, it'd still fall behind because the larger Deep Wounds procs that TG produces outweighs the more numerous procs SMF produces on autoattacks.
