The difference between 2h frost and dual wield frost is often exaggerated.
Not really. Those 378's will beat out everything up until Heroic Dragon Soul, or maybe Normal Gurthalak two-handers comparing DW to 2-hand.

How much better is DW over 2h frost. Personally i prefer dw but i got lucky in an lfr and picked up gurthalak so i switched to 2h.
Figured I would stick with this until I could get some souldrinkers but if 2h really is that much worse i might just switch back to those 378s
Are you doing progress raiding? No? Stick to what you like.
I'd stick to this. If you like to have higher DPS more than looks yeah DW is probably better.

Wow... no.
While I don't know PvP so I can't comment on that, what you wrote on PvE is all messed up.
The stat weight for PvE is str>hit (cap: 8% for 2h or 5% for properly talented DW)>
exp
(cap: 26 exp which is 781 rating without racials)>haste>mastery>crit, unless you're going for the not-as-good mastery heavy DW style, and then you should use frost presence (but it's rare to see someone going for that style). Crit is not useless as HB benefits from it, but it is much worse than haste or mastery because of KM.
Also, if you're using Ob as an execution only you're doing it
very
wrong. HB is by no means bread and butter for frost, not even if you're going for the mastery heavy style, and Ob should be used on as much KM procs as possible.
And on a technical note,
Varo'then's Brooch
drops in WoE, not HoT.

It'll get better when you get used to the fast paced rotation.
Also, sometimes it looks like you've wasted a KM proc on FS, but actually the FS triggered runic empowerment, which gives you just the right rune for Ob. In that case you couldn't have used the KM on Ob, but it looks that way and makes you die a little on the inside.
