    Which is more important for Arcane? Crit or Haste?

    I have been wondering which would improve my DPS more:

    more haste or more crit? Because haste makes spells cast faster but Crit improves the chance you get critical hits. This may be a nooby question for a player of my experience (which dates when TBC started) but I am just wondering because a friend of mine who is a "veteran" says that haste should be the focus and not crit since i get more crit from Magma Armor.

    What do you think?
    Spec: Arcane.

    I have enough hit already. I have 10% hit +6% from Talents +1% from racial. So 17% hit. Im done with that.

    So haste > crit then?

    It's not worthless. Your dps would be pretty crappy without crits. That said haste is indeed vastly superior to crit for Arcane.

    Yeh, haste is better than crit for arcane. Maybe you should download Rawr http://rawr.codeplex.com/ and play with it for a while. Maybe you should also check out ElitistJerks' mage corner http://elitistjerks.com/f75/ if you're really interested in TC. They also got a very nice arcane thread there!

    Haste is always a dps increase while crit is an occasional dps increase.

    Example: GC works at McDonalds. Some idiots walks up to the counter and asks for a Whopper. GC tells him they do not sell Whoppers. The idiot flips a nut. Calls GC off and throws straws at him. GC asks him to leave.
