Ret PVP stats prioritization?

Just wondering what the stats people are “stacking”
I’m currently at 33% mastery 6% crit, 12% haste, and 19% vers.
I feel like I should be switching over to crit/vers now?

Vers > mastery > haste

19% vers is pretty low for pvp, everyone has around 26-31%

Crit is not very needed since wings give you 20% already

Technically it’s Vers>haste=mast

Vers is literally the only thing that matters. After you have enough vers decide how much haste you like and then put rest into mastery imo. Some will swear by crit for w/e reason though.

It depends on your playstyle, a lot of rets are going full mastery instead of haste just for the oneshot

Versatility is the go-to.

I did some math and this is what I came up with:

Versatility (with PvP trinket bonus) is about 21.5 points of versatility = +1% to ALL damage.
Mastery is about 21.9 points of mastery = +1% to ONLY HOLY damage.

( The lower the number of stat points, the more damage you do. )

To build upon the earlier post: haste simply smooths out our rotation. We don’t get enough benefit from haste to warrant going all in. You need just enough haste, I keep hearing 15-20% but have seen people use 10%, to enable your burst rotation. Since we suffer so much from CC, playing ret is mostly surviving until our burst window opens up again and then going all in for the kill.

I’m aiming for max vers. In all sockets etc. I’m stacking mastery to 30% then dumping the rest in haste. Crit isn’t needed. With zero crit we are at 33% durning burst with seraphim.
