Welcome to another post from the Clueless Zone™!
Playing my priestess (level 78 at the moment) I have always been kind of a regen hog. I made a max +healing and a max regeneration set early in my TBC raiding career and I'm running with the regen set about 75% of the time. I just like having to drink as little as possible and having a large mana reserve for that eventual multipull or whatnot. So I obtained a lovely Beast Deck for the Blue Dragon trinket at 70 and ran Botanica a couple of times for the Bangle of Endless Blessings. I still use those, partly because I haven't come across another nice regen trinket, partly because back then the combination was godly (or so I was told, being a failure at grasping the mechanics behind the game to a useful extent).
Checking the tooltip of the Bangle it now occasionally allows 11% of mana regeneration to continue while casting, somewhere in the back of my head a voice is screaming NERFED!, I think it was 30% once, or at least more than 11%, which is kind of low.
To finally get to a question: Is the combination of above trinkets still still a decent choice for a Holy/Disc hybrid priest with a nice amount of Spirit (armory down atm of course...)? Or should I, with the incoming changes to spirit regen, ditch them and run with my spellpower trinkets?
If anybody would be so kind as to to quickly point out some numbers that point towards a certain choice ("you are only regenerating x mana over y seconds with that combo, fool!"), it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance
take care

P.S.: My priestess' name is Shaisa, on Twilight's Hammer EU, if the armory comes back up:)
EDIT: "preistess", ouch...
