Ok, seriously, its been bothering me for to long. (Sry if i missed a thread) But!
Is the T9 set any better than the T8.5 ? And now im talking 226 ilvl vs 232. Not 226 vs 245.
The question goes more like. Is it worth spending triumphs for T9 when in my eyes the T8.5 is equally as good ?
If any1 would help me i would love it. Thanks
PS: Got 4/5 T8.5 so yea. Its a full set

stats-wise there isn't a massive increase but if you think about the way the sets are obtained this makes sense. T9 can all be acquired through badges while only two T8 pieces could be bought while the others depended on drops.
i think blizz made the clear decision to make the basic T9 set quite easily obtainable but not make it a big jump up for those who were getting x.5 previously. the tier 8.5 raider in ulduar should be looking at the 245 T9 pieces as their upgrades while 10 man ulduar raiders will benefit greatly from the basic i232 T9 set.

I have a question a lot like her question, but a little different. I am sitting with 245 ony helm and 3/5 T8.5 and one T8. My question is, since all of the t9, like stated above are a REALLY small upgrade, should I just wait for T9.5 from the trophy's? and even then is the T8 4 piece set even worht breaking? my guildie said it ate his dps by a large margin, but I think he is lacking and playing his tank too much :P.
My other question is, I have the T9 legs from a VoA run, would changing out my one T8 be worth losing the T8 4 piece and gaining the T9 2 piece? The 2 piece is 10% pet crit and that should mean 10% my crit, from empowered imp, but I am still hesitant to spend my priority on them. Please shed some light, been really wondering on this for a long time like evzal.

Man, ur way to smart for me. So. In small words. U mean that, that 10% crit bonus is an overall 5.5% crit chance increase ?
