I agree that ToL is awkward, so I use it as a mana cooldown in place of my normal healing. Instead of the usual rejuv, I'll toss out mass lifeblooms and make up the throughput difference with omen...

@ Satanicway

You are right in that haste will help during burst, but you are also wrong because as you cast more spells more often, due to shorter duration, you not only lose mana, but also time...

As is everyone else. We're just saying not to avoid ilevel upgrades with crit (that you will reforge) because crit is still decent. You make it sound like we're stacking crit.

@ Lazerdollarz - I don't see how it's not a landslide. You are trading the equivalent of 160 primary stat for 114. That's 40% better. Then add the extra 1290hp. If it were crit instead of mastery,...

I wouldn't say it's a side grade. For the lack of 160 primary stat or 320 secondary stat (gem slot) plus 60 int, you gain 129 stamina, 166 int, 120 spirit and 85 secondary stat. Looks like quite a...

Quite right, mistakenly thought it was a dagger. I've corrected the post. It seems the 10 man dagger is the best 1H option even against the 277 1H weapons from 25 man non LK bosses.
