So im thinking of respecing my lvl 64 100% dex bird to a warbird. Im not sure though so I need opinions, which is better dex or warbird. Not for pvp though. And if warbird is better what would be a good build?

Personally, I think warbirds (and pally's for that matter) suck for PvE. The only thing you gain, is your own survivability. Birds are the classes that speed up killing bosses during farming. A warbird sacrifices the one thing a bird is good at, namely dealing dmg. A bird that doesn't deal much dmg, doesn't benefit your party in the least IMO.
So yeah, personally again, I'd stay pure dex

Dual wield is IMO just for looks. The whole reason for using a dagger is to be able to equip a wing with it, so you can gain armor. Dual wield daggers (at least at lvl 65) also give you, just like daggers, a fairly low amount of skill dmg and no auto-attack range, as compared to bows/xbows. So if you're going to run around without a wing, bows/xbows are a MUCH better choice. Dagger/wing can be a valid option to use when not running in a good group, to ensure better survivability (at the cost of dmg and ranged auto-attack).
So yeah, personally, I wouldn't waste gold on those dual wield daggers
Thanks. I actually surprisingly do better with daggers than bows in any situation, but I guess thats just me. =P

You will survive better with a dagger set, especially when running in PUG and not being use to the tendencies of your group. However, as Jay said, you are giving up over 60 skill damage.

Half power half life....
Chappybird is warbird with crafted Orlok set. What I lose in DPS is made up in leading the pack and throwing down roots for the mages as they follow and it allows me to focus on NPC mages sooner as the group catches up.
For bosses I can take aggro and not die which allows the group to focus on others and improving the overall efficiency of the runs. Any dex bird and mage stays behind as they are quite squishy.
With the set bonus, high MS and HS, I can spam skills with high values across the oncoming mobs so everything is killed faster than if I was high in DPS. Can also take aggro in the lead with and without a tank so the high and squishy DPS members of the group can live thereby increasing efficiency.
With a bear, I shadow tightly and blast after beckon then throw down roots always in front of the pack. This was all movement is forward not back.
Due to the high price of Sang set and the fact I have orlok set, I decided to respec to dex / str - I do this with my mage to as mana shield also allows me to lead. I care about total time of a run and therefore DPS is not a leading indicator. Death of 2-3 members in a PUG can abandon a run which is a huge waste of my time.
Take that to the bank...
