Hey, I have a quick question for you at Paragon. I am trying to figure out why you (particularly Mancheese) are using a Frost 2 Handed Spec for raiding. I have been wracking my brain all day for a logical answer by sadly am unable to find one. So i've turned here to hopefully get a definate answer. I have people shouting that Unholy 2 Handed is the best due to it's single target damage and its equally good AoE potential, where-as Frost seems to be dropping low of the Dmg marker acording to so many tesemonials. I have ofcourse air'd on the side of caution and been playing Unholy 2 Handed since Cataclysm's launch but miss Frost, was my personal favourite during late Wrath. I am not one for simulations as they assume a Patchwerk fight, which is clearly not what happens 99% of the time, so I havn't bothered to check anything or anyone that recommends a simulation.
Thanks in advance

I haven't been that active on the forums lately. That's mostly because the #&#&ing piece of shit keeps logging me out non-stop. Makes it extremely annoying to do anything.

However, from everything that I've tested, 2H Frost seems to be _the_ spec right now. It seems to hold the highest AoE damage potential and also does a crap ton of single target damage too.

I've had my UI broken for a while and haven't exactly played at the optimal level. There's some bosses where I know I've played perfect but it still isn't pulling off numbers that would be impressive in any way.

Gonna be doing 2H frost on the upcoming reset. I'll let you know how it goes.
