Hi,
I'm a new poster here on the forum, been lurking mostly so far.
I have a slight dilemma when it comes to what piece of gear I should pick from the two crafted ToC items (Bracers and Chest). I'm a Disc priest and my current gear choice / gemming is heavily focused on burst at the moment.

I've been following the ongoing haste discussion closely but I can't really decide on which of the following to pick.

Bracers:
[Bejeweled Wizard's Bracers]
vs
[Royal Moonshroud Bracers]

Chest:
[Merlin's Robe]
vs
[Royal Moonshroud Robe]

Basically, it's either Haste or Spirit from these two items, and I have a really hard time deciding which would be better for me. I'm currently sitting at 417 haste rating (12.72%) which is above the "magic" ~11% for raid softcap. Even if losing out on haste on these two particular items I'll gain more haste as I get more T9.25 setpieces so remaining at or, close to the haste softcap will not be a problem.

The question is really, is it worth stacking more haste or should I take a more regenbased approach on these two items and go with the spi?

My role in raids are, as for most here, dependant on encounter and raidsetup. I find myself mostly tank + raidsupporthealing alot lately though. I don't have manaproblems for now, but I've yet to face ToC hardmodes where I understand way more healing is required.

So, which of the following approach would you guys take concerning these two items in particular and why? Any help is appreciated

Thanks,
Stowned
