Haste or Crit?

As SV, i have been stacking tons of crit,(off of gear and i gem for straight agi) and i have almost 40% crit unbuffed. on the flip side my haste is very low and i didnt spec into Imp Hawk. so i have very little haste to work with.
My question is should i stop stacking crit and start working on haste? i assmed since ES is about 40% of my damage and its an instant cast that i would want it to hit much harder, so i stacked crit and loads of it.
am i wrong to do this or am i right on the mark?

You say you are stacking crit, how do you mean? You don't want to intentionally stat crit rating, since 1 crit rating = 1 crit rating. Crit CHANCE on the other hand is always good to have, as 1 agility increases crit, along with AP, plus your expose weakness will give you a bigger buff in combat.
So the only crit rating you should have is simply the crit from your gear, but don't go out of your way to stack on the gems or chants, and points of crit shouldn't be the deciding factor in gear choices in most cases.

nah, i dont gem for crit because thats retarded o>O.
im merely picking gear the itemizes crit over haste.
my question was if that was better then going for gear that has more crit on it, and no haste.

Eh. Supposedly hitting the soft haste cap is some big deal and all, but I do well without it and I am a BIG fan of crit. That's just me though. In a mix of Naxx 10 and 25 / Ulduar 10 gear, as SV I was running with a 40.36% chance to crit. I didn't have any point in Improved Aspect of the Hawk, and most of my gear didn't have haste on it and I still topped the charts on practically every fight. I don't think you'll see too much of a difference no mattter what, so I don't think it's that big of a deal.
I'm sure someone will prove me wrong though, but I love having over 50% crit with no buffs when Master Tactician kicks in =D
