Boomkin PvP - resto gear better?

[Owltoid]

Resilience now reduces all damage from players instead of just crits and DoTs.

8% crit is 12% damage increase over time (0.08*1.5) crits do 150% the normal damage.

You should take the moonkin gear especially now with the resilience change.

1% crit is like doing 1% extra damage (assuming crit bonus is 200% of regular damage). In other words, if I have a 10% crit versus someone with 0% crit, all else equal and assuming crits do 200% regular damage, then I will do 10% more damage. A similar situation is someone with 10% more spell damage will do 10% more damage.

You're correct with the new resil changes. In the situation of 12% effective crit versus 4% effective crit, which is an 8% difference, no longer shrinks to 5% (originally was 8%*70%=5%).

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around all of this. I'm guessing moonkin gear is better for moonkins (not a big surprise, eh?) but now wondering how much bigger. If moonkins are nearly as effective in PvP using the resto set, then I would personally choose the resto set because resto druids suck in moonkin gear (for dual spec).
