309.8069 = 190 + 63.9445 + 33.402 + 22.4604 {Crit-to-Mastery}
this doesnt look right, uve labeled it .07 better than one with haste and mastery, are u saying crit is just below haste? i think its got to be a mistake since uve posted crit to mastery as its reforge since that item has both crit and mastery on it
either uve made a mistake or im very confused
the head from sinestra is bis.

Trinket list seems odd. Serpent is quite a bit better than Mirror(Normal) mastery, even in 4.0.6 won't be that desirable compared to pure SP.
You can tell WoW changed the MMO for good when players started complaining about the amount of time they sink, into a time sink.
Yep, there was a mistake on my part when fat-fingering in values. Should be correct values now.
Assuming 100% uptime on both, Serpent is on a 120sec cooldown ((((1425sp*20sec uptime)/120sec CD)*0.7765 PP) = 165.976875), whereas the normal Mirror is on a 90second ICD ((((1926mastery*20sec uptime)/90sec CD)*0.4404 PP) = 169.64208). As you can see, Mirror already has a slight edge. Mirror also has 36 more Int, or 36 PP more.

Yes, it is true. The mastery is still up, and over a large sample size it equates out to having an average of an additonal 428 mastery up at any given second. Simucraft takes all of this in to account when figuring out PP values. If you'd rather have an RNG on all of your spells (crit) as opposed to two (mastery), then that is your choice. However, over the long run and not one-off observations, Mastery is going to provide a larger DPS gain.

Maybe sticky this?
May I humbly refer all those in doubt to Shadowpriestdotcom where a full list of best raid gear for 4.0.3/ 4.0.6 resides.
You can also go to askmrrobot.com to get BiS gear lists based on stat weights. This site still isn't letting me post actual links... Here is a link that uses the stat weights at the top of this post:
askmrrobot.com/wow/gear/priestshadow#v0-o50300421-w0,2,yl,0V7T099tggYx,L4AIC63
I personally prefer to weight Hit/Spirit higher to achieve a set that looks like this:
askmrrobot.com/wow/gear/priestshadow#v0-o50300421-w0,2,14h,099t1100ffYx,AIC4L63
Keep in mind that the site is balancing the entire set of gear. You can click on the "..." button by any item to see a ranked item list which is independent of the other gear equipped. That ranked list assumes the best gem/reforge combination on the item.
The only things missing from the site right now that 4.0.6 affects are the new wrist enchants and new meta gems. Those will all be available when 4.0.6 goes live.
I am going to be updating the trinket estimates to be more accurate based on the observed in-game mechanics. That update will also be in the 4.0.6 update to the site. I don't think that it will greatly affect the trinket list, though. Volcano and Theralion's Mirror are still the best right now.
Unless there has been an update in the last day, the lists available on ShadowPriest.com are incomplete (not all 372 gear included), out of date (old PP values and for 4.0.3), and uses incorrect calculations (.5/.5 for reforging when it is. 6/.4). Those are a few of the reasons why I am putting this list together.
For anyone who is wondering, I have to add items by hand to my database that feeds my script that generates these lists so there might be an occasional error/mistake (like the Rep necklace above). Please point out any possible inconsistencies and be patient while I get additional slots added.

This is what i have been looking for since Shadowpriest.com is becoming very unreliable, thanks. Can we Sticky this or put it into the guide?
This is definitely a great list so far. I was wondering when we can get a few more updates to it. I understand it takes you quite a bit of time but even if one more slot gets updated, it would be really nice. Anyways thanks for taking the time to do this.
I've been busy making alterations to my script so that I can generate the proper BBCode for both here and HowToPriest.com instead of adding more items. I won't be raiding tonight (other RL things getting in the way...), but tomorrow night I'll probably be able to get some more slots tossed in and updates posted.

the stat weights are gonna make people preach about mastery>crit when lets be fair its 0.0009 difference which if there was 200 of a stat taking mastery over crit would see a 0.18PP difference(round to point 2 tells us ud loss 1PP every 1000crit u took instead of 1000 mastery, dont get me wrong im pleased mastery is more valueable now but its basically equal to crit and more crit = greater uptime of dark intent for ur warlock friend(not that its ever really a huge problem) but hey if that starts dropping off you'd hate him to start looking elseware :P
and i no stat weightings will change based on how much of a stat u have but meeh haste loooovvveee
You are exactly correct, stickyjam. Right now (with the PP values I'm using for this BiS list currently), the difference between Mastery and Crit, and, Hit and Spirit are so little it could be considered statistical noise. I've been talking with New about this and he has some new values based on a freshly released version of Simucraft that I'll be using soon. The short of it is that (as it stands right now) Mastery is better at lower item levels but Crit becomes better at higher levels; additionally, Mastery and Crit are tied at the hip, so to speak, meaning that if you stack Crit and avoid Mastery like the plague you will do lower DPS than if you have a balanced amount of Crit and Mastery. Haste is still king, though.
