    BrM trinket question

    just that, which trinkets should we be using as brewmasters. most commen response is a stam and an agi/dps trinket, but the stam is not needed imo for my current gear. stam is there just to get us enough to not get spike killed or magic dmg, which isnt a problem on any fight except possibly lei shi, and there are other ways around that. so ignoring a stamina trinket, should i be picking up a tank trinket? Here are my current trinkets.

    http://www.wowdb.com/items/86132-bot...infinite-stars hc elegon on farm, just a matter of getting it to drop/coining it

    here's my armor if you wanna see the rest of the gear and what works

    Bottle of infinite starts (preferably hc) and relic of xuen.

    Xuen and Terror.

    The passive agility provides a lot more benefit than the passive mastery (though grabbing one of those for an EH set if you ever need it wouldn't hurt, but it sounds like you don't really need it if you're able to survive burst).

    This has been discussed pretty thoroughly and procs are really just not that amazing for brewmasters.

    Xuen is better than heroic terror? Assuming you have it.

    was that a question or a statement?

    You have indeed been misinformed.

    Again the static agi does make it a better trinket... Bottle is somewhat a jack of all trades trinket... it provides benefits to both aspects of tanking (EH and mitigation), but it doesn't do either very well, relatively speaking. Terror's a figurative ace for mitigation.

    Guess I shouldn't pass on it then As far as I remember only the lfr version is gathering dust in my bank so I'll stick with xuen + hc bottle untill 5.2. Thanks for clarifying this though

    Heroic Terror, Heroic Bottle, and Xuen. Which of the 3?

    Heroic terror wins out of the three so that's going to be used regardless.

    Bottle vs Xuen things get more interesting, but even then, it's simple logic.

    Considering the fact that EH is only as good as you need it, that mastery's what makes or breaks bottle. If you don't need the mastery, why would you get it over agi?

    So if you're undergeared, you'll want bottle. If you aren't dying due to lacking gear, you'll want Xuen.
