Haste vs Mastery for Frost DK Pvp

What is your opinion on haste ve mastery?

My gear is more focused on haste because i hate long GCD’s and slow runes so i got %10 haste however i have really low mastery which is %27.

Should i change it for push? Im currently 1650 rating with full challanger gear.

According to my calculations 226 geared DK’s have %8 more str than me and %20 more mastery with 0 haste. Which means they deal at least %25 more damage (1.15x1.08), not to mention vers and wep damage.

%20 more mastery means overall %15 more Frost damage for me.

Since most of our damage comes from Frost especially during Pillar windows i miss a lot of damage, however haste helps with consistent damage.

What is your opinion on this am i playing with handicap because of this, should i swap asap?

All in Mastery

Full mastery, its more damage on every single ability except obliterate outside pillar
You play around setups and you need mastery to burst in your stun.

You should go all way to mastery. You’ll have enough haste in burst windows with ERW and its conduit to make your globals faster.

You revolve around 1 min cds and chill streak set-ups doing the job for you. 20% mastery = 25% less damage in your gos, making you useless overall since damage outside cds is 0 (2k oblits/2k frost strikes)

all seem to go full versa/mastery, with versa having higher prio.

i once saw some1 recomending 9-10% haste (like 3 months ago) but it seems that is not needed and versa/mastery is bis

I watched some Flarkness’ video few months ago and he said that haste is a little more valuable than haste, at the time he had like 25-29 mastery and 12-14 haste. I disagreed in the comments and described why mastery is better , I even made calculations with GCDs and stuff.

He started flaming me. What.

Never watched his videos again, now I googled his char and he’s almost full mastery

Our formula numbers are so low, that we are forced to max mastery because it is a raw damage statistic.
