Trinkets Per Spec Per Boss

[Astynax]

With how messy trinkets are in practice vs sims and people asking what's best, I'd like to start this thread and update based on that other's think and have tried. For now going to ignore heroic vs mythic HFC and assume that any HM or BRF trinkets are Mythic.

So far IMO:

Destro
HFC: UGoS + DSI
Reaver: FotDS + DSI
Kormrok: FotDS + DSI
Kilrogg: GSR + DSI
Gorefiend: GSR + DSI
Iskar: UGoS + DSI
Socrethar: GSR + DSI
Xhul: UGoS + DSI
Manno: UGoS + DSI
Archi: GSR + DSI

Afflic
Reaver: FotDS + DSI
Kormrok: FotDS + DSI
Council: SoN + DSI
Tyrant: SoN + DSI
Zakuun: FotDS + DSI


Thoughts? Any you'd change and why?

I really dont believe in PoF for a warlock even though another lock is adamant that it's great on multiple fights. I think we just cast too slow to get enough out of it, but could be better on HFA where it's all AoE + executes?

I dont have a DUT, PoF, or Sandman's so let me know you've had good results with them or think they should be in there.

I feel like a damn tank with how often we change trinkets on a per fight/per spec basis. I agree with you on PoF, if you aren't demo its really hard to get the most out of that trinket as destro. What other trinket should we use on council/tyrant as affliction if we don't have an SoN? Piston/DUT?

DSI on everything in every spec.

I use fragment on iskar but as the mobs are dying faster I'll probably end up switching to GSR, the rest are all GSR for destro.

As aff I use fragment on council, and darmacs on tyrant, zakuun, fel reaver.

And the only fight I play demo on (mannoroth) I use fragment.

Yeah probably Piston > DUT then maybe CSP

Darmacs has given me better results than piston, but they're both close.

I have heroic UGoS but I'm getting better results using mythic warforged GSR...i guess its debatable but i think that 4% of my total dmg that UGoS does doesnt do enough compared to crit u get from GSR to be worth using. U can do some serious damage when GSR procs but u can't really control UGoS, it's completely random.

Any specific boss youre using GSR on over UGoS?

I think it's pretty reliant on when the proc occurs. For something like Iskar I could get a ton of DPS out of it procs during the add waves, but if not then I'm just "wasting" it on solo pumping the boss, whereas UGoS has a fairly decent number of procs per minute and would always have the effect ready for adds

I got a Mythic Warforged Reaver Piston with a socket. Does this mean that I'm locked to this Piston+DSI for every Aff fight, or is Darmac's/SoN still better?
