TBC Classic Arms Warrior Aldor or Scryer

We recommend going Aldor as an Arms Warrior in TBC Classic. The Aldor shoulder enchant,
Greater Inscription of Vengeance
, is slightly better than the Scryer
Greater Inscription of the Blade
. Aldor also provides a quest that rewards
Overseer's Signet
, an item tied for bis ring for Pre-Raid gearing.
