Re: the T7 set bonus, here is my napkin math:
First, I've been strictly prioritizing judgement over CS, which pushes CS effectively to a 8s cooldown. If this is wrong, someone please enlighten me to a discussion I've missed.
From parses, judge + CS + seals they proc should be in the neighborhood of 40% of my total damage.
The 4T7 set bonus will effectively haste all of that damage by 8/7 = 14.3%.
Ergo, I expect roughly a 5.7% total dps increase from the 4T7 set bonus alone, not even considering the additional mana return at all. For a wishlist-geared pally, that should be 200-300 dps, right? So the difference between other stats would have to provide that much advantage just to break even with the set gear. (And this is still not considering its effects on fights where mana is an issue.)
To me, the 4T7 bonus doesn't seem optional. It seems to me like the only question is which one piece to drop, and so far it seems pretty likely that will be the helm.
