20s 1h str weapon

[Boii]

Theres ironfoe and dragons edge (the one from sunken temple), but i was wondering if there is a 1h str weapon that has sockets? I can only find the one from the BC dungeon that has no stamina and has 2 sockets, but considering this is a tank spec i am looking for id like to find one that has stamina

Those are going to be your only farmable options with sockets unfortunately.

TBH you really don't need the extra stam, with all that you'll get from the rest of your gear. Those 60 hp are negligible. The 3 or 4 options aren't perfect, but they're what we get.
I'd love it if we could at least get Skyreach in WoD, then we could have a shot at an epic proc on https://www.wowhead.com/item=110032/beakbreaker-scimitar?bonus=4746 ;
or if Looms would be on par with normal dungeon gear, then https://www.wowhead.com/item=105678/hellscreams-doomblade would be our BiS 1h'er, though that dosen't look to be happening.
As is, https://www.wowhead.com/item=11684/ironfoe?bonus=6712 or https://www.wowhead.com/item=27901/blackout-truncheon?bonus=6710 are your best options for a tanking 1h, the latter being better for gem options & the former being Swag.

I guess i should specify, I was looking for gear because of TWW. After comparing, the mace is going from 5 to 4 dps, and ironfoe is going from 7.3 to 4.4 dps. Will dragons call or w/e that sword is be BiS because of it’s proc? Stamina will probably be more essential as a tank since we are getting a squish

Weapon swapping between Blackout Truncheon and Ironfoe is also a viable option!
Since the haste proc is pretty efficient, I've used this combo alot before.. Not sure how strong it is in the current meta, but it used to be pretty damn good to swap off the haste-proc.

Does anyone know if the blackout truncheon actually procs 45 haste? Insane if it does, but you cant trust the tooltips anymore

Wow i might actually have to go 2 1h on my dk then, idk

Id lose a socket, but between that and ironfoe/dragon’s edge or w/e migbt be more effective

I'm thinking https://www.wowhead.com/item=11684/ironfoe?bonus=20/70 paired with https://www.wowhead.com/item=27901/blackout-truncheon?bonus=20/70
is still going to be the most productive choice for Frost DK, Hance Shammy,
arguably omitting SM-Fury considering the bonuses are deeper in the tree than we lowbies can grab.

Doubling up on the main-stat gems might out-weigh the 2x melee attack, but I don't know if having the haste proc doubled will guarantee 2x procs of https://www.wowhead.com/spell=33489/blinding-speed .

Then again, sometimes you roll with the best you've got! If you have 2 Truncheons, rock-em'!

isnt truncheon unique-equipped, so you can’t have 2 of em equipped?

Hur-Dee-Derp!
Can't expect a humble gamer-tard to do something like pay attention to details or anything
I think that I was thinking https://www.wowhead.com/item=27846/claw-of-the-watcher which isn't unique equipped.

Gonna need to farm myself a ooze then to get this grind going, Thinking about it more and with a second weapon i can either do crusader/fallen or crusader/gargoyle runes, or something else. I dont think razorice is viable at low levels, have to stack mastery and we dont have much frost abilities that smack. Plus obliterate is gucci
