When to break t9 4p?

[Arnock]

So I just made out like a bandit in an ICC10 pug, got the weapon off of marrowgar, rep ring, dps boots off of gunship, and pants off of saurfang.


The problem is, I'm not entirely sure whether or not I should use the pants. I recently got my t10 shoulders, and my pants are my last piece of 232 t9, but the four piece bonus from t9 is just so nice, I was wondering if it was worth breaking it just yet.

Would depend heavily on how often you're using it. Do you use your DProt on cooldown? I have access to 4p t9, but I hardly use it, so I tend to break it all the time. Has a lot to do with just not liking the stats on the pieces, really.

I broke it pretty quick. Set bonuses don't really.... do it for me.

It pained me to break my 2-piece T9, I really liked my 6 seconds HoR. But other than that, I agree. I usually only go for the 2-piece because I can and forgo the 4-piece for better offset pieces (offset usually have more sockets for instance)

Me not being high enough on the dkp list to get a 4-piece before I'm already decked out in offsets might have something to do with it though
