Stand your ground this is what we are fighting for. For our spirit and laws and ways. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war. For heaven or hell we shall not wait. Shall I think of honour as lies or lament it's aged slow demise? Shall I stand as a total stranger on this day in this stone chamber?
Sure, the Iblis may be the only sword offhand from early into Naxx, but rogues can still use other weapons. Maexxna's Fang, the Harbinger of Doom, and the Servo Arm are all used by rogues in my guild.
After tons of Raz kills we have never had an Iblis drop. The Widow's Remorse dropped for us and, surprisingly, only warriors had bid on it! For pure DPS, the Iblis is superior in every way: it has all the same stats as the Remorse minus the stamina, but also happens to have 1% crit and attack power. It would be a shame for a rogue to win this as an offhand and then replace it as soon as enough Iblis have dropped for them to be going to hunters.
I would put this in my off-hand as a rogue if no warriors wanted and then I would walk around and laugh at other warriors in Org. would be humorous. N e ways I'm not saying it's a rogue weap, it goes to warriors first, but if the oppurtunity was there...Well u guys can flame away now.
The whole deal with TF is not the proc itself but the threat the proc generates. Each time TF procs it more or less gives more than a free sunder in terms of threat. But yes, widows remorse is definately a gem and definately a godly tanking weapon. And also has awesome looks !
Its not as good for MT as TF... the simple reason is that the average rage generation of the proc from TF has been estimated at 7 sunders worth per minute... thats a sick amount of agro... per minute a tank usually hits 30-35 sunders, 5 or so revenges and some heroics depending on the rage... Basically this means that TF's proc alone generates 10% of a warriors rage (rough calculations based on information founded by other people which have been stickied on the official forums)
saying that, widows remorse is brilliant... it wont replace a TF, but hell, not everyone has a TF in their guild and im pretty sure than 50% of MT's dont actually have TF anyway, only 1 MT on my server has TF, thats in 6 or so Naxx guilds
this would be brilliant for duel wield tanking with iblis in offhand ;)
Your comparison is weird. The main threat skill for a guild main tank is shield slam. Sunder armor is fairly crappy, only used to keep up the debuff and for using leftover rage when both shield slam and revenge are on cooldown (or unavailable).
I didn't say it's better than TF. It HAS better Speed, so better Generation, more Armor, more STA and the +Hit is sweet. TF is just better because of the insane Proc. And you're riht, if there are 3 other pple in the Raid who have TF, this Weapon is a lot better for Tanking. Of course, then the tank is dependent of those other pple surviving to keep the buff up ;)

It will take somebody hours to make something new, which can be destroyed in seconds. Is our existence worth more than the nature given to us?
