Broken Promise or Slayer of the Lifeless?

Which weapon is outright better?
Would be at the Defense Minimumwith either

Is it better to still use a fast weap rather than slow?

Remember only you can stop me from posting in this painful color by using the term defense minimum and not the erroneous term defense cap

It all depends on your preference. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Faster Weapon:
-Pro: Will proc judgements more often.
-Con: Will cause mob to parry more often (resulting in them gaining haste and hitting you more than you should be hit).

Slower Weapon:
-Pro: Mob will not have as many chances to parry.
-Con: Judgements will not proc as often.

you use the one with higher dps, so long as it doesn't have terrible stats on it. with Last Laugh, my HoTR crits are approaching 6k raid buffed, its awesome.

Nice Def, Expertise isn't really needed since we have sufficient TPS at 80. Low strenght which is a fail in my eyes. Judgements will not proc as much. DMG and High End are nice though.

Low Stregnth, Low Def, Hit rating is meh, Dodge is nice, definte pro is it references the South Park Episode.

Yep nice str, def, Parry is whatever I guess, nice stam, NICE WEAPON DMG for our Hammer and Shield,. I declare this the winner of the WOTLK current progression tanking weapon.

mmm last laugh also has hit on it.
hit is a very good stat, whilst we have good threat already you dont want to try MTing a raid boss with zero hit as no matter how good your rotation is, expect to see /raid zzzzz theatcapped, comments in your chat box. its not a game breaking stat like def rating is. but to say its worthless is completely wrong

I don't mean to rain on yall's parade but I am not quite sure what you are all debating on.

Slayer of the Lifeless is ilvl 200

Broken Promise is ilvl 213

Last Laugh is ilvl 226

If an item has a higher ilvl, chances are its better because it has more points allocated to stats.
