Of couse, that included just raw stats, and didn't take the meta into consideration. But look at the stats of the Wyrmscale Greaves. They aren't just great. They are beyond amazing. They offer almost twice the stats of any other item you can get on that slot.
Unfortunately I'll have to replace quite a few pieces when cata TW gets released. I'm not sure if I'll even bother, I have like 5 free bank slots on my hunter and am desperately in need of space, meanwhile Blizzard keeps adding toys that aren't toys every other minipatch as if they're mocking me. I'll probably just run TW after 6.2.3 with my Warrior or DK until I get the new mount and then be done with it.
