Guardian and access to wings is essential because they are predictable and large gains. I'm not sure how important devotion aura and outgoing damage in general for these raids will be but seems like alot since they buffed tranqu and stuff last tier ONTOP ofthese trinkets reducing shit like Smoke bomb/ Rally / Devo.
And yeah with the TIER strength gains. Raw 30 ilvl str gains across the board, and the weapon I'd say we will finish the tier assuming HTF wpn and full heroic NON tf gear. idk... +18,000 weapon damage? roughly 75,000-77,000 raid buffed? Should be 150k un-modded damage per divine storm or 300k per hit if mastery goes beyond 60%.
We really at this point have to wait type of gear we are looking at and the trinket proc values to be finalized. I think suggesting Holy TV's single target power would be a good suggestion so we can potentially push towards a slightly more powerful set bonus. I'd settle on 70% increased damage on DS.
Guardian damage especially with 50% haste is pretty substantial and the potential to use him every 2 minutes or less is a pretty big dps upgrade on it's own. Nevermind the fact you can consider his 12% strength to be a lengthy trinket proc in additon to 20% damage uptime which is also nothing to scoff at. + the trinket itself can proc strength. No the CD reduction trinket is too good.
It kinda sucks because we have NO IDEA what the actual trinket procs are until we see them on live. Fuck I'm pretty sure feathers trinket tooltip is still wrong compared to the benefit it provides. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The CLEAVE trinket in comparison to others eems weak. If it's infact A FUCKTON higher then first mining shows. and If MULTIPLE DS hits can translate to the primary target. THAT may be the BIS trinket on more then a few encounters with our tier synergy. If you are hitting adds EVEN adds that heal on transitions if DS translates to the PRIMARY target. That is like having a DIRECT Holy templars verdict appear out of thin air.
The Cleave trinket should NOT be ignored currently especially considering the Xuen cloak proc is a aoe flurry that may end up proccing it aswell. Maybe even guardian swings would be affected?
So far the only trinket I'm fairly sure will be completely useless is the passive str / haste proc trinket unless that thing has like 80% uptime which I'm skeptical of.

Have no fucking Idea which is the true spell I'd but the tooltip for the trinket on the spell ID lists the passive ratings trinkets as 6% crit mod, mast, haste. Which is roughly 4260 rating + whatever 6% critical damage is worth. That too me seems FAR more likely to be what the TRUE passive values are. We should consider the the CD reduction trinket likely won't go beyond the 17-20% and may Fully cap out at 580 ilvl at the 25% range.
Considering those things. I think we may need to take a look at the Cleave trinkets and see how it interacts with our spec. Oh and if the Cooldown reduction trinkets don't go beyond 20% let alone 25% DP all the way fuck SW.

The % cooldown trinkets are pretty skewed. For instance you would be retarded to give the agi version to a enh shaman or hunter VS a rogue who gets a reduction on Smoke bomb AND their dps abilities.

Rogues are speculating for trhe trinkets to be working similar to SoB. Essentially what this means is 50% reduction <if it is provided> WOULD NOT be -1 minute It would infact be translated the way SoB is which means it would be roughly 1:30 seconds.
