So,
my hunter has 4/5 T7.5 (no gloves) and
Black Ice. With this gear I am at 309 hit, 4418 AP, and 34.61% crit self-buffed (AotD, TSA).
After some thinking, I frankly don't think that the 4P T7 bonus is that useful. Sure, the haste is nice, and certainly brings me back up to full mana in no time at all while in AotV, but ultimately, I don't spend much time in AotV as it is anyhow. So, buffing an ability largely not responsible for my DPS isn't an effective way to gear myself. Or, at least, this is how I see it.
However, I also have
Cryptfiend's Bite which I got a couple of days ago,
Tunic of Masked Suffering, and
Leggings of Failed Escape. With this gear I am at 263 hit, 4299 AP, and 36.64% crit.
I'm taking a small hit in AP, but getting a boost to crit, and am losing the excess +hit. Is this worth losing the 4P T7 bonus?
I'm pretty sure I'm making the best decision by only using the 2P T7 bonus, but I wanted to get some outside opinions.
