To add to the ele fun in pvp, if you pop ancestral guidance at the same time as ele mastery and acendency you are getting 40% of all damage returned as heals on injured nearby allies so you get massive burst + survivability over 15 seconds. Wonder if that would be enough to tip the balance in 5's because it should be fine in bg's.

Echoes of elements can proc off of mastery and proc a mastery hit

So you can get;

Lava burst
echoes
mastery
echoes
mastery

[Nikita]

Might just go with mastery enchants and reforge everything to mastery could be crazy with ascendance up!

Conversion : Costs 10 Runic Power, + 10 per second
Continuously converts Runic Power to Health, draining 10 runic power per 1 sec and restoring 3% of maximum health. This effect lasts until canceled, or Runic Power is exhausted.

death coil glyph absorbs roughly 10-13k (depending on ap) on other ppl

75-80% increase in stats??? So much for stat compression, unless they've yet to complete that pass on the items.

I was under the impression that the increase between Cataclysm and MoP was going to be much less than previous bumps, and in addition all stats were being reduced to be nicer on computing things on the servers.

[Ualaa]

In the MMO-Champion summary article, they mention that the stat compress idea was scrapped.

[Multibocks]

Yep and I am so happy about that! Supposedly there wasn't enough begging from the customers for an item compression.
