I generally go with (note I said
Generally
) if I'm after the Socket Bonus:
Yellow Gem:
Rigid Dawnstone
Blue Gem:
Shifting Nightseye
(to unlock the Meta Socket's Blue Requirements)
Red Gem:
Glinting Noble Topaz
Gemming this way should get you past 200 +Hit Rating, even with regular blue Pre-Karazhan gear.
To extrapolate on this more...
For combat builds, you should always be socketing rigid dawnstones unless the socket bonus is agi, crit, or ap (in that order) and can be achieved with only red and yellow gems (it can have ONE blue gem in it if you've yet to activate your meta, or two if you only have one piece of gear with blue sockets). Never socket for bonuses that don't improve dps. Never over socket hit rating (not really a problem, but if you get to this point start replacing red gems with delicate living rubies).
