Haste is multiplicative, haste modifiers do not give you a flat amount of haste.

Because it's a healer trinket, I assume. The 321 INT are nice and all but the secondary effect is pretty much useless to us and grants us only ~50-60 dps even if the trinket is used to its full...

Yes, of course you'll cast Soul Fire for ISF below 25%.

The damage of Fel Flame is so marginal that it simply doesn't justify using 3.5 GCDs instead of 1 GCD to bring UA back to its full duration.

Firstly, the reason why haste loses so much of its value in BiS gear is because you've reached the 50% threshold, that allows Immolate to gain an extra tick and caps the GCD at 1sec. Reaching that...

A cast of UA is the same as a GCD. In a patchwerk fight there's no reason to want 6 seconds of UA + a little damage rather than a full UA for the same cast time.

If I'm not mistaken damage modifiers recalculate with every tick, only haste rolls for the entire duration of the dot, so we'd be talking about heroism+haste trinket (if you have one) only.

The 4p bonus does nothing for the simulation, because we don't cast fel flame in patchwerk fights. I still doubt the utility of fel flame in any the vast majority of boss fights anyway.
