How Gear Is Chosen

Gear is chosen based on the following statistics in the current patch along with subjective reasoning. Once you reach 675 haste your global cooldown cannot be reduced further so haste's value drops after that point. A 1 second GCD effectively caps your reaction time. More haste past that point is still useful for holy light and even flash of light (it still reduces the cast time but doesn't allow you to cast more per second), but my personal feeling is that this is a good point to focus more on regenerative stats. For a good post about holy paladin haste, see : "Haste is not linear"

For tier 10 the focus is on maintaining the 2 piece bonus. The 4 piece is also quite useful. To obtain 4 piece, I recommend subbing out hands and legs to obtain it. The off pieces are once again more powerful than the tier items, however.
