I've seen lots of QQ over this and the only thing I can think of is that blizz is trying to move away from pally crit regen, and this seems like a bad way to do it so I doubt thats it. Maybe they are trying to make us more traditional? Either way it's pretty annoying as a fellow holy paladin. I've been picking up ele shaman pieces since my guild has none.

Yeah,
They are adding a gentle nerf with the T8 bonus and lower crit on tier gear. Not completely shocked about it though. With raid buffs, crit is creeping up to 40-45% or more.
only 40-45%? But i will say its because as it currently stands we are the only healers that i know of that with little effort can keep up a biggest heal spam for multiple minutes without being too worried about mana. Then should the o bugger i'm oom situaton arise someone needs cover out heals for 15secs tops (assuming 1-2second reaction time and slight overlap for safety) and we have a ton of mana back.
This is blizzard subtle way of saying. No you may not heal forever but 30mins might be ok.
note thats 30mins fo fol, anyone going for more then 5mins on the HL spam has got some serious gear.

Blizzard are idiots that don't know how to get passed the little oversight of allowing plate wearers to ware mail and leather because they itemize mail and leather at either better DPS stats or better healing stats.
I see a huge nerf to the basic way several classes function in the future. Such as fury not getting crit from agi, and us somehow not being allowed to ware mail. Until then they will make a sad sad attempt to replace crit with MP5 or some other BS.

when blizz gives us lemons, we steal shammy gear? (boomkin gear is also very sexy)

You don't want MP5 at all.
Typically I agree with that whole-heartedly. I did read some on EJ today about a bit of increased value in mp5 due to the high mobility of Uld and the fact that crit is only good regen if using HL.
Even if we have to move every 2.5 sec we still can get a HL off and have half a second for lag reactiontime. MP5 would need to be cut into one fourth of its itemization cost to be valueable to replace pure int. As we'd lose 2-3% crit replaceing all that int as well.
AND THEN WE'D BE PRIESTS WITH ONE WORTHWHILE RAID HEAL. NO DEAL.

Have blizzard commented on this gear change? (mp5)
One would think there was more fuzz about plate gear not going to use.
