With the arms warrior using a single 2 handed weapon and the fury warrior using two 2 handed weapons, but the weapons themselves doing the same base damage, I do think that the arms warriors 2 handed weapon should be doing at least half again as much damage as a fury warrior’s 2 handed weapon. my reasoning for this is this, if you take any 2 handed weapon and hit someone with it one handed, you should be doing way more damage with the same 2 handed weapon.
If you hit a baseball with a baseball bat using 1 hand and then 2 hands, see which one goes further, same concept applies. using a damage item that usually requires 2 hands and getting the same base damage result from that item whether using 1 hand or 2 hands is just wrong.
You’re trying to apply logic to a world where I summon a dragon to ride by rubbing my hands together…

or the fact a tauren can wear the exact same armor a gnome gets and it isn’t tight and doesn’t pinch or bind in the slightest

Or where this is a cloth armor
it is actually a solid point
Fury should return to dual wielding 1 handers.
…
and frost needs to go back to 2h.

as well as give fury more rage generation ability if you are DWing 1H hence the spec FURY

Was there any actual reason to do those changes?
They ruined a lot of xmogs by doing that ._.

Having it as a talent choice might not be a bad change, depending on how they work the mechanics of it.

There had been a desire to dual wield 2 handers for a while, so Blizzard offered the choice between single minded fury and titan’s grasp.
Of course this was troublesome to balance, so blizzard gave preference to the larger weapons. This consequently changed the class fantasy of fury, and also had a negative effect on the core identity of arms. Why would a warrior use 1 2hander, when you can use 2 of them?
Ideally, the numbers would be balanced accordingly between the two specs, but it still felt bad that fury was seen as 2x an arms warrior.
they should move TG to arms and have single minded fury be part of fury spec make arms allow for single or DW 2H and give fury the 1H DW option

I kinda agree that titans grip going to arms would be easier to balance, as you are looking at similar number tuning there. Though i actually think that keeping the idea of having two choices in fury like arms would than have would be fun too. I loved the idea of a single one-handed weapon fighting style would be interesting in fury, and honestly no real class uses such a style in wow at all.
they should rework the specs
Fury DWing 1Handers and increased fury generation
Arms has Titans grip for DWing 2Hs or single use 2H but with faster att speed
Prot of course no change still be a sword and board spec
Two-handers have never done double the damage of one-handers in WoW.
Even if they let Fury transmog their two handed weapons with one handers, but retain the mechanics, I’d be okay with that. My Fury Warrior always used SMF and I wish I could still use the weapon transmogs I used for him.

Because you use it with more skill, finesse, and control.

Are you trying to use logic and laws of physics in a fantasy universe? How dare you?
And you hit harder with two hands on one weapon. I have no idea how OP thinks hitting something one-handed will transfer more force than with two hands.

this would make more sense, and i would gladly love to see this happen, but who know if blizz would ever do this. since blizz will probably never likely do this, the next best thing to do would be to make 2 handers do half again as much damage for warriors in Arms than those in the fury spec.
I’ve had some similar threads on the warrior page, and it seems that people have been content with the Titan grip fantasy. I’ve asked what people thought of being able to mog their weps to 1 handers, and people seem to like that idea too.
