I have two sets of gear, a non-RoW set and a RoW set. My non-RoW set uses the trinkets Prophecy of Fear and Unblinking Gaze of Sethe. This set also follows the stat weights from the earlier section of my guide quite rigidly (so in general higher iLevel trumps lower iLevel, and it leans strictly towards haste-mastery items).
The second set of gear, a "RoW set" uses Repudiation of War and Desecrated Shadowmoon Insignia as its core trinkets. My gear uses couple alternate pieces to bring my haste to 35%, and also has a bit more mastery than the non-RoW set.
For talents, I use Insanity the entire dungeon, regardless of which set I'm in. Until we get to the boss, I'm in the non-RoW set. Whenever PoF procs, I go into an orb-building phase, where I play as though I were doing a Mindbender-CoP Rotation, except that I bank orbs and don't spend them on DP. After the PoF proc is over, I use orbs to cast Devouring Plague, proc Insanity, and use that for Searing Insanity. Basically I treat this like it was a Hellfire Assault or a Xhul'Horac fight.
Just before I get to a boss in a 5-man, I quickly switch my gear to my RoW set. For about a minute, I play RoW-CoP (DoTless Insanity rotation) on the boss, then as soon as he's dead I switch gearsets again and continue on.
The entire dungeon is done with the same set of talents but just alternating back and forth between gearsets like that. I use this same strategy for LFR as well.
