Orc DK - Which weapon to go with, Axe or Sword?

WoW Classic Cataclysm Classic Discussion

+50 Str on sword
vs
+100 AP on axe, with +5 expertise (racial)

-As a Blood Tank, I’m thinking Axe? Wowhead says BiS, but lots of people said the Str is better b/c of the scaling with spells and AP.

Whats better?

Axe, plus it’s orcy

I say the Axe is more for an orc than a sword. Both are just fine.

I’d say axe, because the expertise also means a bit more threat and survival due to less frequent parries (and parry haste).

The attack power on the axe is already decent, with the extra expertise and Orc axe specialty makes it better imo
