    Un'sok's Amber Scalpel from gold coins?

    Do you guys think this item can be obtainable from gold coins?
    I know it has spirit on it.. but its still best in slot for us until terrace opens up.

    Is there any way to see what loot is obtainable form gold coins? The dungeon journal shows the item if i sort for mage, but does the loot distribution system follow that list?

    Pretty sure that it does. I have a fairly large and active guild and I haven't seen any locks or mages get any spirit gear, nor anyone get gear that's not listed for their current spec in general.

    I'm by no means sure but I have a good guess that it doesn't work that way.

    Pretty sure it will as it shows up under the Dungeon Journal for Mage specs.

    Are you sure the 7 item levels make it better than the wand from Elegon, considering some of that 7 level budget is spent on Spirit?

    Celestial Torch:
    491 Int
    373 Crit
    249 Haste
    6564 Sp

    Amber Scalpel:
    444 Int
    325 Haste
    7007 Sp

    Reforge spirit for 113 crit (or hit).
    + socket (160 hit, 160 crit)
    + socket bonus 60 haste

    Totals for Scalpel:
    -47 int
    +440 SP
    -100 crit
    +136 haste
    +160 hit

    Overall it is much better.

    Staff,and Trinkets are always what I upgrade last.

    The PvP staff is only ilvl 470 making it worse than my 5 man staff. Never seen the caster dagger drop in heroic 5 mans

    I have had no trinket drop from Elagon yet or seen Flash Frozen trinket drop after farming it since day 2 of Pandaria. 30 runs and the trinket hasn't even dropped.

    Mr Robot yourself and take a look. I think most of the LFR weapons are better than the staff, but taking a look probably wouldn't hurt.

    Noticed that healer trinket from Tsulong shows up as Mage loot too. Hope that's fixed by next week.
