Resto gear question (healer's trinket)

Post by Arakantos

I actually don't like people asking for a comparison, but I really don't know it with this one:
Gale of Shadows or Tear of Blood ?
I don't like "chances" but I know int is our most important stat.
But it's easy to keep the 340 SP bonus up + having 285 haste.

In short: 340SP + 285 haste <->285int + "chance" for 1710 spirit

and another question, what should I reforge and where to?
I always reforge crit and hit (though I think I don't have hit anymore) to haste, but don't know what to do with spirit and mastery. I don't go oom in heroics and don't have to drink regularly, but haven't done any raids yet so I don't know if I've got enough spirit.
Same for mastery, I will be both (raid healer and tank healer) so I don't know if I should reforge my mastery or not.

btw, this is my armory

According to stat weights, Tear of Blood is worth 57.58 and Gale of Shadows is worth 40.30. I'd go with Tear of Blood.

Edit: As for mastery, I haven't run any raids yet (just now ready to as of this morning), so I can't offer you any input there.

Int + Spirit is amazing for resto. It's unbelievable how strong it is. Combine that with the fact that you have a low haste breakpoint ~950, means you won't have gearing issues. though I'd say even then that I would want Int + Spirit over any other combo.

I'll have to second that. I concentrate on reforging crit and mastery to spirit or haste, and I've had half a dozen tanks the last couple of days say "OMG PHAEL I <3 U! YOUR MANA BAR NEVAR MOVES!"

which 2 would be better outta these 3:
Tear of Blood, Witching Hourglass Blood of Isiset

Thanks

Blood of Isiset is viable, but I would look to replace it asap. Tear of Blood and Darkmoon Card: Tsunami (if you can afford it) are the best trinkets to start raiding with. Witching Hourglass is a DPS trinket (the int is nice, but the proc is largely wasted).
