Maldo's Sword Cane BiS for normal raids

[MindEndeavors]

as of right now the stats in game are:
219 stam
146 intel
88 crit
103 mastery
1954 sp


but in the new patch notes they are:
Maldo's Sword Cane now increases critical strike rating by 99, down from 110. Increases mastery rating by 117, up from 110.



if the notes are correct for the new stats they will be better then the dagger that drops off of the valiona fight? (which is currently BiS for normal modes)

Should I wait and sell this tomorrow or just use it for myself (fire mage)

BotWH is still better, as is the "of the Wildfire" proc on Al'akir's sword.

Pretty sure that was 100% datamined as the linked item as well as the listed stats are from the nonexistant heroic version of the sword. Note that it says "down from 110" when crit is 88 on live. Pretty sure thats not accurate.

Last I saw, the Al'akir sword ony hadone combat stat on it. I was looking at someone's armory who had it. Could have been an issue with the ever reliable armory though.

Al'Akir's swords (like all elemental enchants) are bugged atm in armories (and I think WoWhead was bugged last I checked).

I can say with certainty that they have 2 stats.

Of the wildfire=Crit/hit so it's obviously better. The Al'akir sword that is...
