Maybe you need to be a bit more specific with your question. Do you mean is there any gearset where Ruin is better then UA. Then the anser is easy. Yes just pick every hight crit item and you will see that Ruin do a lot more damage then UA.

Or do you mean with the best gear for a UA spec and the best gear for a Affliction&Ruin spec is there a gear level where Ruin get better. This is a lot harder to say. Maybe even NP hard to slove, but ofc it's not imposible.

I played Affliction&Ruin because I had destro gear and we need Shadow Embrance. If I take my stats and enter they into a spreadsheet it show me that the diffrence is realy small between Affliction&Ruin and a UA build.

My gear(all Tier 5 or lower, buffed)
Shadow Damage: 1383
Crit: 21.9
Hit: 14.7
Haste: 25

dps diffrence(don't including ISB debuff from extra SB): 24

Lets just switch one gear part. Take in Vestments of the Sea-Witch instead of Frozen Shadoweave Robe and the diffrence go down to 15 dps. Anyway I would call it close.
