    Personally i'm sitting at 751, in disc gear, the reason being heroic LK farming and shield spam what it is atm. I feel fine at about 550-600 without the raid buffs and borrowed time taken into account for most things. (its about .04 seconds difference on the GCD)

    This is at 80.

    Assuming +5% Raid Buff Haste, and +14% Borrowed Time, and varying the Darkness talent, the result is:

    Disc Haste Soft Cap Percent Haste Rating at lvl80 Haste Rating at lvl85
    With 3 Darkness 21.66% 711 2774
    With 2 Darkness 22.86% 750 2927
    With 1 Darkness 24.07% 790 3083
    With 0 Darkness 25.31% 831 3241


    And without the +5% raid buff:

    Disc Haste Soft Cap Percent Haste Rating at lvl80 Haste Rating at lvl85
    With 3 Darkness 27.75% 910 3554
    With 2 Darkness 29.00% 951 3714
    With 1 Darkness 30.28% 993 3877
    With 0 Darkness 31.58% 1036 4044
    Granted things change, and besides the 80 numbers I haven't tested them. although, I aim a point over, becasue there was some rounding error (or a flaw in peoples math) that was causing I know caps for extra renew ticks as holy, or rejuv ticks on druids to require one more.

    My gcd macro isn't working on beta, so I really can't confirm numbers for the 85 situation. Good luck.
