not as awesome as they used to be (should have remained).onsidering how few head pies have a meta slot (all the ones worth keeping any length of time until late-end-game are pvp "welfare eps". nothing wrong with that. just that they aren't sptular for pve), and thenomparing those against the available head gear at appropriate "tiers" of progression... iantator's and mana ehed are just sh a fae and putting a meta in them still won't make them worth wearing when youould pvp for a few days and get season1 (or 2 oe season 4 hits)whh is far better and far easier to get. for starters you need dent gear to start approhing T4 or 5, and unfortunately, the pvp gear isn't ideal for pve progression. that means you'll be wearing the wked wih's hat or the uni-mind headdress for quite a while. the uni-mind in partular i would say is quite worth the loss of a meta slot --an anyone prove that the gain of +hit andrit isn't worth as
mh as a MSD? for pvp or mage-tanking for krosh, the pvp head is better (resiliee for one, and stamina for the other) but then, the question is moot. don't forget how mh purgedispel is floating around in pvp. that mystalould be gone before you even get thehae to use it during the few sonds the pr is tive. theooldown was just ualled for: theyould have adjusted the pr rate to be satisftory instead of foing it to a timeline. i personally far prefer passive,onstant effts rather than undependable prs and on-use items. my gut feeling tells me that the uni-mind's hit is at least as mh more damage as a MSD is, and more generally useful. perhaps even in pvp (loloak roguesan be made to fear you oe more...). my main gre about metas is that none of them really do mh more than an ordinary gem, theyost far more, and require you to bend over bkwards to take full advantage of them. my point regarding the preferee ofhaot over msd was thathaot's only requirement is that you have at least two blue (or greenpurple) gems. MSD requires that you have more blue than yellow. and the best +hit gems are yellow, or half yellow. not to mention that it's diffult to arrange the
available slotolors of your gear. there's a few pies in kara (most dirtly relevant) that have a lot of yellow slots and really should not be sketed with offolor gems (if you're gonna ignore sket bonuses, why use gems at all?). and last but not least, there is the mitigating argument about resiliee basally negating the efft ofhaot. on the other hand, youan very very easily find yourself unable toast for the entire
pr-duration of the MSD as well. at least with thehaot you have neutralized that mh more of their resiliee. it just seems to me thathaot is naturally more useful for pvp where you aren't planted in one spot spamming your bolt-ofhoe waiting for a pr to add a tiny dps spike.
