I have to question that. The 3-piece Trans bonus remains, hands down, the best overall set bonus I've ever seen. It scales, it was effective, it was passive - there was nothing not to like. Except them nerfing it.
15% of your regen occurs while casting >> 100 mana on a top-up GH. For one thing, yes, while using GH, you do get back 45-55 Mp5. But with our current gear status, most of us are running a *minimum* of 500 spirit raid buffed, making the 3-piece Trans (original) bonus work out to 47 Mp5. This only scales higher, up to 800 spirit being 75 mp5. Static. Completely undependent on spell casts.
Having said this, I'm salivating at the chance to get a 2-piece T5. It may even be good enough to justify breaking my 3-piece Primal Mooncloth (although I'd prefer to have my cake and eat it too o.O). But just thought I'd point out that this is the *second* best set bonus ever created, since our first one was so powerful that Blizzard nerfed it into the ground.
If they hadn't, I'd probably still be wearing (for some fights) the boots/belt/bracers combination of T2, since with my current buffs, that would be equivalent to having pieces each with 15 Mp5 on them.
