    You know probably the best thing about the changes that a lot of us have glossed over.

    No longer do we have to worry about rogue pieces being BiS for us. Now we can actually utilize the str heavy gear intended for us.

    38Para/26/2 2h - 2.5 (was 2.6 before PTS change)
    44para/20/2 DW - 2.6 *** using POS HK Tank weapons ***
    38 RB/28Champ - 2.8 Champ Crystal using TS, didn't parse RB crystal, but I say your numbers have something wrong with them. The buff is additive, so you only get a 2% bonus really.

    Was using oil only.
    So, it looks like there are at least 3 viable raid specs. 1 dw, and 2 two handed. Sounds fine to me. I'm guesing with the extra atk power and stats from having 2x dps 1 handers would probably make a 50-100 dps difference in the 44para/20/2 DW spec, so, given the fact that it will have good ranged dmg in comparison to the 38rb/28 champ i think it would be fair for it to do 3-5% less dmg ST.

    No.

    You still need to be crit capped, and using dexleather(helm/boots) is the most effective at getting you to that cap while retaining the most AP.

    Well, i was referring more to HK level gear, yes, at dungeon level or even t1 raid, you'll still want to focus more on getting crit capped, though im still interested to see how the math plays out now that AP will actually mean something.

    You can easily crit cap with full plate and a decently balanced sigil. Leather pants are good.

    Regarding Fiery Burst - This ability seems to be hitting harder on PTS compared to live for me contrary to what the Devs said. Anyone can verify this?

    My rough approximations:

    Finishers: 3 Dmg per 1 AP
    Thunder strike was roughly 1:1
    Rift Strike was roughly 2:1

    When I tested the AP scaling, going up 100 AP brought my FB ticks up by 60 (~820 to ~880). I can't remember if FB ticks 4 or 5 times, so it's either 2.4 or 3 per 1 AP.

    Steel: When I tested it, it didn't seem like a DPS gain. But I only did it once.

    I've been getting similar numbers with DW 44para and that new RB build. Except, unless you have a warrior sacrificing their DPS and putting on FA when it's coming off, it's very unstable and unsustainable. I find 44para more sustainable. Also, from people's testing, have you found a better aoe dps build? RW is still best for me.
