Hi. I am having trouble with my gear specifically because I don't understand the spell hit, spell crit and spell penetration relationship. I am wondering on how destruction will give its best effort to 25 man bosses such as Gruuls, Magtheridon and Serpantshrine and beyond. I understand that I have to have about 15% spell hit but then that would result in a great loss of spell crit and damage. I already have lost a ton of spell damage, etc.

A link to my armory is: http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/ch...st&n=Voidheart

Boots

-As you can see the boots I am currently equipping are the best I can get for the crit.
-I currently own http://www.thotbott.com/i28670. I think that the crit is more efficient.
-The upgrade im looking forward to is: http://www.thotbott.com/i28517

I am thinking about putting +9 spell damage sockets on all the socket spaces. Im still not sure if I should put spell hit inside of them instead.

Trinkets

-My trinkets, I believe is efficient because a 0/21/40 destruction build requires alot of spell crit as well as hit.

-What I can get in the future are any of the 2 in replacement for any of the 2 I am equipping:

Rings

-Here is another field which confuses me in terms of what to get. I have spell penetration on my band of guardian as well as crit. My other one is exalted Karazhan ring which has sufficient crit and damage.

-The ones I can look forward to recieve and replace for any of the other 2 is:

Neckpiece

-Currently I have a nice crit necklace but i'm not sure if I should get the ones listed here:

http://thottbot.com/i28762
http://thottbot.com/i28530

-What I am wondering is which one will be more beneficial compared to the rest of my set?

Shoulders

-Currently I have the gladiator shoulders with +9 spell damage sockets but I am wondering if I should get the tier 4 shoulders and put +9 spell dmg sockets in them as well.

I am not sure if this is against your forum rules (from what I have read). I apologize if it is but please give me some feedback if your experienced with this field. I believe destruction is a great spec if your geared and minded for it. I hear it otherwise from about 99% of the people I spoke to about this. Its always good to test new aspects of the game. I do not shadowbolt. I am incinerate, immolate, conflag spec'd. Along with my other spells of course.

I appreciate all feedback, Thank you for reading!!
