Since we can corrupt every piece. What secondary stats we should get on pieces. I think mastery is priority but with mastery should i get haste or vers ? I cant decide which piece to corrupt with masterfuls
Mastery is only great for m+ typically. You should still go ahead and sim your statweights, though. www.raidbots.com. Haste and vers are generally the best.
i think the best combination for Raid is something like 3x Masterful 2x Versa 12% and 1 x Haste 12%
Yes, but mastery is not the same as masterful.
you right, i misunderstood
If you’re buying anything other than masterful from the vendor you’re griefing. Whether the other stat on the item is haste or vers doesn’t matter that much. They’re both worth about the same in a world where mastery and masterful 3 is on every piece

With the optimal setup of rank 18-21 masterful, then your stats should look something like
mastery>haste>=vers>crit
So mastery should be on all pieces, but haste and vers are close, so take highest ilvl with mastery haste or mastery vers, but if same ilvl, take mastery haste.
Masterful increases the value of Mastery on the gear. With enough Masterful corruptions (my personal sims suggest ~35% based on my characters, I’ve heard different figures elsewhere) Mastery becomes the best stat even for pure-ST encounters like Shadhar or Xanesh. Got 50% Masterful? That 60 Mastery enchant is essentially 90 Mastery, that 50 gem is actually 75.
@OP Haste and Vers are pretty close; if you have a M/H and an M/V piece it will most likely boil down to whichever piece is a higher iLvl. Haste will likely pull ahead in M+ if you’re a Flame Patch user because of the degenerate playstyle of hardcasting Flamestrike for “sustained” damage, but again probably not at the cost of any iLvl unless it’s more Mastery-aligned.
Of course, a little bit of Vers is ever-important because of how well the first few % of Vers scales with the rest of your damage, but realistically you’ll get that from C&S minor and some better-itemised slots (the M/V Shad’har and ToS rings are far more Mastery-weighted than the M/H UR/ML rings are, for example)
You will have to sim yourself to see. Raidbots has a Gear Compare function where you can add corruptions to your gear and sim them based on that.
For me Mastery becomes the strongest stat after the 5th masterful R3 (+1 Masterful R2) just slightly stronger than versatility. I still need to keep a specific haste threshold however otherwise haste takes over on the priority list.
Ilvl is greater than haste vers crit. On 2 targets mastery is worth almost double the other secondaries. In most situations the item with the highest amount of mastery will be stronger regardless what the other stats are.
People say that crit is bad but it increases your dmg outside of combustion which is ok on your average raid fight, over a 4min sim it’s slightly (and I mean slighty) weaker. Less combustion dmg though.
