Although I know that DW was heavily nerfed after the patch, I was wondering if there was still any point in dual-wielding. I've been thinking that build could work even after patch.
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#jMZG0etAbckfz0ostf0hbxc:kpsmMV
The rotation that would be used would be something along the lines of
PS, IT, HB, BB, Pest, FS untill new runes then HB, Oblit, BB, Pest, FS untill new runes and repeat last rotation. That was for single-target though.
For AoE, I'm thinking something like
D&D, PS, IT, Pest, rune CD, HB, Oblit, BB, Pest and repeat.
The reason I'm thinking about this is that I've had been using
Claymore of Ancient Power
and got
Razorscale Talon
and
Stoneguard
(last one not stolen from any tanks =P] and thought that dual-wielding those two would be better than using my old two-hander.
But then, since I'm not that well into how dual-wielding is after patch, I'd love to get some help or clarification on why it would be viable/utter crap.
Edit: Added armorylink

However, in armory I'm often going to be in my tank gear rather than my dps gear.

Its all about base weapon damage. The claymore is 522-784, the MH weapon is 297-552, so your dps will be lower while duel wielding.
If you really wanna DW, your only good option is unholy since its the only tree where the majority of your dps comes from spells and pets instead of strike damage.
Strike damage is what makes wielding a 2h'er better.
You could try this:

Though i'm still not sure if it'll actually give you more dps while duel wielding instead of using your Claymore of Ancient Power.

Currently I'm trying this:
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#jcZG0eZfMhIx0bxcq0ssut
.
A DW build without BcB and UB? They're core abilities for any UH/DW build.

You ought to include Nerves of cold steel in that build. I also think that IUP should also be taken.
I think I recall a UH DW build floating about looking something like this

But I'm unsure where the last points went, I do know that it didn't include reaping however.

take a look
here
its a useful resource for DWers. It is updated for patch and relevant :P,
My death knight is dual specced DW, maybe because i used to play a rogue but with my awful gear i still compete with 2h specs with about same gear :)
edit:Haste is the weakest stat a DK could stack. The only builds that could really get anything out of them currently are Blood and "some" DW builds.
At the moment according to EJ haste is in the top 3 stats for the 2 top dual wield builds :)
