Cataclysm Tier 11 BiS List

Here is my ‘Best-in-Slot’ list for Tier 11.  This is going to be slightly different, as I will be listing several items potentially for each slot.  Due to reforging, your gear choices can be much more fluid.  You will obviously want to obtain 4pc T11 as well.  I will try to “rank” the items by placing the better choices on the top for each slot, but remember, with reforging, almost any piece of gear becomes viable.

      Well, the mastery is rather lackluster compared to other trinkets. The int proc would be great (but short lived, and depending on your Eclipse state would really depend on the damage). Sure, it’d make hot innervates.. but honestly unless I was a bajillionaire in game and had absolutely no use for the gold I could score by selling this, I’d probably sell it if it somehow magically fell into my lap. I could see many other classes that would benefit much better (and probably would pay a pretty penny for it). I really can’t see spending the sort of money for it when it’s pretty much a “meh” trinket for us.

    Hello, just wondering what your take on mastery will be after it is buffed by 33%.

    and why is [Theralion's Mirror] in that bis list if mastery is our worst stat atm?

    also we will not be able to shapeshift out of root soon :(

    thanks

      Mastery will obviously be better then crit, but I still wouldn’t put it above haste.

      Theralion’s Mirror is amazing because of the high level of intellect, and if you happen to have a mirror mastery proc when you set an Eclipse, you’re going to keep that HUGE damage buff for your entire eclipse, even if the buff expires. (Eclipse damage is set based on your mastery at time of proc, it does not update with any mastery changes that happen after you initially gain the buff.)

    Ok I did not know that its on the initial proc, thank you very much. I picked up the stump of life, heart of ignacious and theralion’s mirror and that was why I was wondering why ej and you had the haste proc trinket as bis.

    thanks again

    What tier piece is the “off” piece for this set, also if its the helm, is it worth engineers grabbing T11 Helm.

    Suggest adding Lightning Lash to this list as well. Easily obtainable and has tons of spirit and haste. I passed on the Gale Rouser Belt last night in favor of keeping this.

    I was wondering your opinion on the dark moon card volcanic deck?

    I’ve heard from some that it’s BiS for boomkins and noticed it’s not on your list

    Hi I was wondering with the new patch 4.0.6 and the volcanic trinket able to proc with dots now is it a more viable trinket than some of the ones you have posted? Trying to decide if i should sell it or equip it.

    Tor shapeshifting out of root has been fixed in the new patch along with mounting in moonkin form

    Hey nice listu made here!

    am i wrong when i say that incineratus should be before twilight’s hammer since out stat priority is Hit, int, haste, mastery crit

    incineratus is haste/ mastery
    twilight’s hammer is haste/ crit

    Ok just curious, where would Vibrant Alchemist stone go? With the Static 350 Int(With the red gem/bonus) and the static 194 Haste, It looks like a good contender
