I saw a moonkin on Sargeras with this chestpiece. These gems make baby Jesus cry.

Latest on Wed, 09:21 pmLunarbomb: To answer Boomer's question I am running the 4T13 and I find it more beneficial to use starsurge on cooldown no matter what due to the 10% damage increase and the fact that you do get the instacast procs so often that there is no reason not to take advantage of the tier bonus
Sunfyre: *groan*
Doomfowl: A Combat-log is a druid meleeing in tree form. Think about it...
Stoemp: Hey, i just got 85 on my druid and got basic balance gear and spec, got a 8k dps at the moment, and i am looking for some helpfull Addons to improve my dps. (or makes thing's easier.
Doronamo: Stopping by from wow.joystiq, thought I'd say thanks for the symbiosis list, that's awesome.
mantiss: tooltips working, nice one =]
Sunfyre: I've been trying to get the Tooltips to work. They aren't.
mantiss: you also need the jquery script, not sure what you are currently using.
mantiss: can you add this to your pages? will allow wowdb tool tips, especially useful for the new symbiosis links.
Sunfyre: I still use 4T12 heroic, since I'm only running LFR at the time -- but even now I only starsurge under Eclipse. So definitely, I would wait until Eclipse with 4T13.
Moonkin Count!

This brings up the question – what is your gemming process as a moonkin?
IE, do you go for the socket bonus all the time, or just some times? What are your gemming priorities, and when, statwise, do you switch priorities(like hit if you aren’t capped, haste or crit until x %, or all SP)?
What do you do with non-ideal colors, do you, say, gem green if it’s a blue slot?

I always gem spell power. I will only gem for the bonus if the bonus gives a higher equivolent spell power. (9 spellpower bonus for one yellow socket is better with sp/crit, and 7 spell power bonus for two yellow is better with sp/crit). I also obviously need two sp/spirit gems to make my meta.

He didn’t even pick up the socket bonus…
Pro moonkin imo.
