It looks like a lot of the 5.2 trinkets are struggling to beat out the 5.0 trinkets, so you might see a level 502 or even a 489 outscore a new 522 trinket. That’s definitely possible – be sure to read the notes on each trinket if you question Mr. Robot’s ranking. If you still think something is suspicious, post on our forums and we’ll dig into it. If you need a little help to understand why a particular trinket is ranking high or low, hit us up on the forums too. Math is Mr. Robot’s strong suit, so we’re happy to translate math into words

check out their blog post about them
.. remember burst trinkets broke pvp at the start of the xpac, so they are being pretty cautious atm
Do some math. It's 5 Real PPM and at 10 stacks you get the proc. 5 stacks per minute means you will get about 1 proc every 2 minutes with that trinket.
6088 * 20 / 120 = 1014.66666667. Sounds terrible to me. Mr robot is pulling it out of their ass for a lack of better terms. Lessons of the darkmaster gives 4232 str for 20 seconds every 2 minutes. 4232 * 20 / 120 = 705.333333333... Yeah... Don't trust mr robot.
The trinkets are bad, but they aren't that bad.
You are forgetting one thing: RPPM scales with haste. If you have ~25% haste, you get a proc every 1.5mins or so. When BL is up, this trinket will proc even more.
So the 502 trinket is better or worse then the 496 one?
I remember when people use to test their theorys and figure stuff out instead of asking a robot ;p
Didn't they remove mp5 , spellpower etc because it was too hard (for who :S) and too complicated to see how items measured up against each other? Yet they implement the most fked up trinket system , the RPPM, that far outdoes what mp5/sp ever did in the calculating department. You can't even see how good a trinket is anymore when it drops without the use of third-party sites such as wowhead.
I'd like to see a Ret Trinket BIS list added to this thread if anyone can?
When I simmed I encountered something similar. Vortex from 5.0 is a very strong trinket - even the Raid Finder version was comparing very well to the 5.2 522 ilvl trinkets. Same probably true of the Last Orders trinket off Will although I didn't look as close at that one. Those two trinkets are just very strong for us.
At least for my gear level, I will be using Vortex + the shado pan VP trinket for all of 5.2 normals. None of the raid drop trinkets beat it, even thunderforged. But what trinkets are best for you are going to depend on your gear. I recommend using a better tool than Ask Mr Robot to decide. Simcraft is a good one :P
The good news is that there isn't a really huge difference between any of the trinkets either, so you can probably make a "wrong" decision or pick up a sub optimal trinket and not see a huge difference When i was simming for myself I was very surprised by how close they all were.
AMR is great for stuff like hit and expertise capping, and reforging, as long as you adjust the stat weights. But I certainly don't trust it to evaluate something like a trinket.
