Then trading in the Commendation for the Card for fights where that proc can save my life, or even for the Autoblocker/Watch/Scarab, when I need that massive amount of Stamina.

Glad I did because it pushed my black rating to almost 50% on use, which when I tanked bosses that ate my shield blocks up (i.e. Prince) the trinket actually saved me from quite a few crushes on its own.

You mention the Hydross fight above - is there any other specific fight where y'all prefer a resilience trinket over the ol' standbys? Please understand - I'm NOT talking about the usage of the medallion of the horde/alliance, but just plain resilience. I use the resilience ring from ZA for my stamina set (since 54 stam on a ring is just crazy until I get some better rings), but that's for stam, and in that set my defense rating is still around 510 or so, therefore the resilience seems somewhat pointless...

I didn't think I'd use it that much, but ever since I've picked it up it's become a free potion every two minutes and saved me a ton of cash on consumables. I also use it in my PvP/grinding set since I can just pop it any time I hit 50% and keep going. It's nice for fights with silence like Gruul and Narlarok, too.

I'm currently using that and Moroes' Pocket Watch and they're pretty nice. The Spyglass is good if a healer misses a heal or if you're in a 5 man. No love for Spyglass of the hidden fleet?

I think you're talking about the "Mark of Conquest", which can be bought for 30 tokens from the Hellfire Peninsula PvP quest. The vendor (for Alliance) is in Zangarmarsh. It's +54AP, and a roughly 10% chance on hit to heal (or return mana for a ranged hit). I love this trinket, and I got it as soon as I could. It was amazing for levelling, and I still keep it equipped for farming and questing. Fustigator, I’m not sure you mean “Mark of the Chosen”.

For Prince in Kara, used Argaussian Compass + DC: Ven. For AOE pulls, nothing beats Dabiri's Enigma and Figurine of the Colosses(got it my first trip into Shattered halls). Hit both, and you suddenly start blocking everything and healing youself because of it. I used Nifty Pocket Watch(that's right, a level 40something green) while learning the Murmur and Shade of Aran fights. Mark of the Chosen(from zangormarsh pvp tokens) makes for a nice early threat trinket. + 40AP and an on-hit chance to heal self. I nearly wet myself when I saw that new expertise trinket. Then I realized I'm going to have to roll against every melee character in existance for it. LFG: H MgT anyone? I use Darkmoon Card: Vengence and Auto Blocker most of the time.

For a fight where i need more stam instead of block (hydross for example) I like to switch in my newly made Gnomish Poultrizer. I had a fun time dropping 800g to power lvl engi 1-364 when i decided it's better than having blacksmithing sitting at 290 donig nothing. (cost 800g because i made all the fun stuff on the way). Luckily i raised Engi the day before the new googles we're released and got myself a deal I like to use the Darkmoon Card: Vengence (found 6 to be easy 75g on ah)

For kara, I'll equip that and the Argussian Compass, which is, I think, another +35 stam. I typically run with Moroes’ trinket and the netherwing +45 stam trinket.
