...seems to be not as big of a DPS increase as I had thought it would be.
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50259
With it, my SW: Pain crit % hovers around 45-50%. With Illustration, it hovers around 30%. Yet this doesn't increase my DPS, over Illustration.
With Illustration: always around 4600-4750 DPS
With Ice Crystal: 4550-4650 DPS
Note: I tested multiple times, not just once.
So 89 SP is better than +20% crit on SW: Pain?

I would expect a trinket like the
Eye of the Broodmother
(which is like a hybrid between the two) to really top the DPS chart.
I still keep this trinket along with my
Abyssal Rune
for my raiding set up.
Don't we have a whole separate thread already discussing this ?

How are you using NMI? Are you changing your opening rotation? When do you pop it? How long did you hit the dummy for?

When do you pop it?
Right before my first SW: Pain.
How long did you hit the dummy for?
Until I run out of mana. About 3 minutes.

I've been running Uld10 since 3.1 came out, and a little bit into 3.2, and I haven't ever seen the Eye drop.

Umm, simply because the OP was asking about SW:P's use of the crit on demand trink doesnt mean that the trink will only buff ONE of your spells, As I understand it, it will buff ANY spell while it is still active.

the eye is great because it gives spell power + critical strike rating. Both effect your dps. Once again, balance is key here.

If you're referring to the Eye of the Broodmother trinket, there is no internal cooldown for a consistent +Crit rating. The + SP you get from it by casting spells stays with you the whole fight if you dont' stop casting. Even levitate yourself if you're about to lose stacks.

what? minivolt? here?
Anyway, the trinket is nice for gearing Shadowpriests and discipline priests (i still don't have it!) so if you can get in and replace an old bad trinket, do so.
P.s let me guess you are a parasite which lives on others peoples misery which you have gave to them.
to quote and old friend
Watch your tone with me boy...
Last leg's, remember?
