I managed to get my hand on UVLS last night from a coin \o/ I'll be sure to log and upload next week so you can see my findings in a real raid setting.
Ran a quick LFR, UVLS proc'd twice on Jin'rohk, once as it was time to move out of the puddle /sadface and the other time feet were planted in the puddle, all CDs were up /WOOTWOOT but tbh even then I managed to only just refresh both dots. Even on dummies I manage to only get 2-3 DOTs up But due to the static Int, even with low proc rates it does seem a DPS increase.
I had it proc twice within 15 seconds on Horridon, and then spent the rest of the fight tanking <3 massive burst + bad tanks = dead me.
Seems I may have to more away from Unending resolve, and start taking misdirect or mirror images ha ha
Just wipe a few times so the healers can keep you up
With the confirmation of upgrades returning in 5.3 it is probably worth evaluating with upgrades now. Considering the reduced cost, upgrading everything is actually feasible this time around. I am not so sure it will change anything though, if anything I'm interested to see if the increase in stats leads to a larger increase in the difference between haste and crit, and if we should consider gemming Quick over Smooth's at that point.
The changes to FoN might require a re-evaluation as well. Though they are sort of confusing... why is the CD being removed? That would only make sense if the treants are permanent.
On the other hand, if that was just a mistake, they need to make them quite a bit stronger now that it is only a single tree.
Edit: Apparently they're now on a charge system with 3 charges and a 1min recharge... but that would mean they're slightly weaker now, since they require 3 casts instead of 1 every minute.

I reckon it's just early PTR mishaps. They're bound to be changed and changed again before we actually see what they're planning on putting out for live.
For upgrades: can only do that once we've got all the pieces in WrathCalcs, and that'll still be a couple of weeks off. Once everything's in there, I'll turn it all to 2/2 upgrades and see what happens.
The weapon from Lei shen can be thunderforged, as it dropped for Method a couple minutes ago.
Why is Wushoolay's final choice not be considered for a trinket? maxdps.com lists it as BiS. I assume its because we have too much hit as it is?
Exorbitant amounts of hit. Even if you're fully geared in normal gear it's still excessively difficult to remove all the hit from it.

Good to know! Had a feeling most of these heroic pieces would have their Thunderforged counterpart.
When using wrath calcs, does it not factor in the buff from alchemy?
Huh, you may be onto something there. You can definitely see that discrepancy by enabling Alchemy and then deleting the profession from that slot entirely - there's no change in DPS. I'll hand that over to Tec and see what he thinks. Good catch though! I never noticed myself, since we use Tailoring/Engineering for comparison purposes here.
Fixed over here, thanks for the catch:
