Hello.
I have a problem picking what trinket I should take,
Gale of Shadows
or
Stump of Time
According to maxdps.com, stump of time gives more dps. But isn't it better to always have 300 sp? I am hit capped but I have reforged 100 haste to hit with gale of shadows, and if I get stump of time i will reforge some hit to haste.
I am playing as affliction atm.
Can you please help me to decide?
Here is my armory if it helps:

Gale has a wind up time to stack to 300 and on trash it might not even reach that cap of 300sp. Stump also has times when it's not active, but depending on what it's internal CD is, and it's proc chance, it could average out to be a higher spell power buff than gale. But the downside is, you don't seem to need the hit rating on it.

If you're under hitcap, use the Stump.
If you're close to a Haste cap, use the Gale.

Depends which haste cap?
First extra tick for haste I believe is around 576 rating, after that its 2637 (while using ISF). Not entirely sure if that number is reachable yet :S
Anyway, Stump is overall a better trinket, I'd possibly use that, and reforge some other items away from hit, so you stay on the hit cap, and probably can improve haste in other area's.

don't use maxdps
gale is better than other trinkets
of it's item level
not just because the stats are good but because the proc stacks up higher than other procs average out to. it's a nice trinket.
however, 359 is still greater than 346 and hit is still an important stat for anyone below the cap.

I'm assuming then, once DoT's are applied, that gale's proc sits on a 20 stack, pretty much until the fight is over?

Yes, as long as you continue to deal damage by dots (or heal with hots) it will refresh itself.
Note that overhealing doesn't count.
