2. On the other hand, all gear should be dedicated to having crit since it's that or haste. Get it through your heads, people. You're not trading SP for crit. It's either haste which is pretty meh past the soft cap or crit which affects 50% of your heals. Which is it gonna be?

Some slots don't have a good crit item - for instance legs have no 258 with crit and spirit. and the crit/haste ones drop from Anub. The same goes for the shoulders slot. So, you will be using some haste gear if you're going for maximum SP, and that will put you over the cap.
