My understanding of the Frost Mage Mastery nerf was that Mastery was too good for PVP so they nerffed the base mastery by 4 points. But they did not nerf the effect of the mastery did they? So I thought that if I stacked Mastery and got it back over where my mastery used to be that this would be an effective strategy.
However, I have not been having good results. This may be because I have been spending too much time trying to gear up my DK and have gotten rusty on my mage, but my mage feels sort of weak now.
Now I am wondering if instead of trying to make Mastery less OP for frost mages, if Blizzard's aim in the nerf was actually to make Mastery exclusively a PVE stat like it is with many other classes? By stacking Mastery am I giving up so much on other stats as to completely gimp myself?
Should I be stacking all Crit instead as Nighttempest of Lauching Skull is?
Is anyone favoring a haste build for Frost these days?
No you should not. Crit is more important because of how shatter works. If you stacked mastery you'd increase dmg against frozen targets...but those attacks would crit a lot less often against those frozen targets.
