    Questions; a 3.2 Warrior Opener change?

    Howdy, well unlike all you lucky bastards, I haven't been able to hop on and enjoy the new patch yet due to work schedule, so my Tank partner(DRK) and I were theorycrafting while we worked.

    Since the Triple Fell cleave was boss opener prior to our damage nerf, we had a few ideas. Would this possibly be the new opener for Warrior OT, Dark MT?

    Infuriate>wait 25 secs>Tomahawk>Unchained>SE>BB>IB>Tank swap>Deliverance>Triple Fell Cleave.

    By starting as MT, Unchained is used, aggro is built, saving your actual MT's CD rotation, sucking up some intial damage, your actual MT gains your aggro with his voke, and the usual damage burst of your Pot+Triple Fell Cleave is still added in early, but without the worry of MT losing aggro to your rip, and extending the true MTs CD rotation.

    Thoughts?

    Unchained w/o Berserk & applying SE first seems pretty sketch for an opener. Probably better to just forego getting 3x FC and instead getting a nice healthy lead that you and the DRK/PLD can ride on.

    e: I say this because our aggro did actually take a hit, it might've been more viable in 3.1 but I don't think it'll work now with any competent DPS.

    I get the reserves on a SE opener, I tend to double 'hawk it(first on the pull, another 'hawk when I'm running through the boss sprite to turn it) which throws two enmity attacks on before Unchained and weave in Brutal Swing either after Maim(if I see the party aggro bars rising to critical levels), or after SE to give it that extra umpf before locking it in with a BB combo. Again theory crafting and I can't wait to test it out.
