Aye, you're correct in that they don't stack additively. A poster on Wowhead put a table together a while back (4.1 so pre most of the CC duration normalisation in 4.2) showing the reductions with and without the meta and racial across a sample of stuns. Check out the comments for Hardiness to see the table.
As you say, the damage gain from the Reverberating meta is certainly not inconsequential. Anyway, I'll play around with some different sets.
Loving the intro -- tight and sweet! Thumbs up for the warrior videos too. More please!
Just a quick gearing query if I may. I've recently started gearing an alt warrior (my first ever Orc <3) and was wondering what your thoughts were on stacking the Stun reduction meta with the racial? I see you use the Strength meta so would you only use the stun meta in/versus specific comps or in a particular scenario (i.e. RBG FC, etc)? 25% off a full deep sounds juicy! jk mage damage :D Cheers.
@Tolaren I'd say the damage gain (from the 54 strength / 3% increased crit damage) would be greater than a slightly reduced stun duration (at least for an Arms warrior). As an FC, the stam / stun duration reduction meta would probably be more optimal. Also, I don't believe the meta's effect to be additive with the Orc stun reduction racial (ie: it won' add up to 25%, but instead multiplicatively, resulting in somewhere between 15 and 25%).
@Stick2xYourGuns Definitely not at their best. I played WMP and WRP yesterday - went pretty badly :(. Perhaps WLS and Kitty Cleave are Warrior's only shot at the moment. TSG should be pretty solid after Patch 4.3 (MS buff to 25% with Necrotic Spam is going to be hell for healers!).

Righto and thanks for the quick reply.
