Juni,
On a light movement fight at 50k iterations, I got you at these values:
Crit 3.61
Mastery 3.37
Haste 2.88
Did you run less iterations?

I can't be bothered to actually run simcraft at 2am in the morning to find out, but I imagine it is because you are simming as a "light movement" fight, instead of patchwerk style. Movement = lost attack time = wasted enrage time, so the mastery loses weight due to wasted enrage, while the crit goes up, or at best stays the same.
The last time I checked, which was a few weeks and upgrades ago, my mastery was ahead of Crit, even though my Crit is less than 40%. I still prioritize Crit however, math aside, more Crit simply becomes a quality of life improvement up to the "soft" cap of 50%.

I'm still favoring crit aswell. I'm simply asking if this is something someone else sees aswell.
And after running simcraft again after I decided to dump some vp and upgraded my chest crit is above mastery again.
And I wouldn't say "soft cap" is 50% as you at that point haven't taken crit suppression into account and you wont actually have 100% crit :P
Two reasons that crit<mastery potentially (BiS TG uses a few mastery gems ATM already IIRC) that will change in 5.4, 1.) 4p T15 drops SEP of crit quite a bit (.12 points or so) and 2.) Crit damage trinket will increase the SEP of crit a good bit. I don't see mastery overtaking crit in 5.4 with that trinket.

I've seen that happen on a few occasions, namely when I had replaced items with mastery on them, in favor of ones without. Mastery and Crit scale hand in hand, if one dip too low, the other loses in value.
so you all saying mastery and crit should be balance out?
Sry, guys i tried to find the trinket list
Gaze 530 or talisman 535 (cant upgrade it this week) ?
I got heroic upgraded feather for the other trinket if that matters
should crit ever be capped at certain point and focus on mastery?
Exactly, if you get the crit damage trinket next tier. But even not, people are not machines and no one is playing perfect (well, I don't), thus still stacking crit will make your life easier. Talking about enrage up times and RB procs. That will make you more stable in your dps. But in a perfect situation (patchwerk, little movement, other shenanigans), between almost BiS tier 15 and until we get the crit damage trinket, you will want to get a bit more mastery, but keeping crit at the same percent.
After that point, I'm sure we will do more testing and find out what is better.
