Maybe it is the group I am in when using it, but it has yet to hit any number even close to that. I'll try it tonight and see.

Yeah I have only been 70 for 2 weeks now and I have not yet acquired all the pieces I need to hit a High STR. Also Raiding isn't giving me much on the STR side so the Orb doesn't show me much right now. maybe once I get to that place the added DPS will become a better bonus. I definitely now see in potential once you cross the diminishing return curve enough to where STR really doesn't matter. Does anyone have an idea where the knee (or peak) of the diminishing return curve is on stats?? My guess is somewhere around 500, maybe 600 but it's a guess.
Should read all my posts before writing that. It doesnt give me 30 ZW DPS, more like 21-24 now. But like I said with my gear now, anything with 30+ STR is giving relatively the same bonus since it is still affecting CA's and melee swings rather than just adding 1 proc. In the end, and seeing the parse report I was wrong.

but still, a 4s weapon hasted, especially with a nice amount of haste and 100AA will beat the crap out of a 1.1 or 1.6 weapon hasted - purely talking for procs (Although there really arent any bad 4s weapons around imo.
