In those kinds of fights, AP will be much better, solely because it translates directly to more damage per hit. I haven't had a chance to run in about a month or so, but in my guild 25-mans, we had another Enhancement shaman. I was gemming haste, he was gemming AP. Some fights, I blow his DPS out of the water, others, he outdoes me, for the reason above. I'm considering switching back to AP myself to test it out, but it's something to consider at least.
