I was wondering what you guys & gals thought about haste vs. mastery/crit? (for resto)
I'm a mastery/crit person myself...but lately I've been seeing quite a few shamans with 6k+ haste (unbuffed).
I know shamans have always been one of those classes that doesn't really stack a certain stat, or there's no real "right" way to do it, but those of you using a heavy haste set-up, how is it working for you? Do you find you do more efficient healing with haste over heavy mastery/crit? Do you have mana issues?
I'd imagine heavy haste is really only achievable with a certain amount of gear. At what point did you switch to haste? I've just started healing with another resto shaman in my 10 man guild & we're almost neck and neck, sometimes he's ahead and other times I'm ahead...we seem pretty evenly skilled/geared.
Anyway he's reforging/gemming more for haste than crit/mastery. I've reforged/gemmed mostly away from haste and into mastery/crit.
My guild is currently 6/6, 6/6 & starting work on Terrace tonight & probably hard mode MSV tomorrow.
