I do not like it when ppl say 'compare
blank
vs
blah
' without links. It is so easy.
5 Crits vs SP
I am not a fan of use effects. I am not a fan of crit. If those two are your only options the int/SP one hands down.
My other trinket is the
snowflake
. Why the snowflake? It is easy to get. The only thing better than that is solace or heroic solace. I had enough problems getting solace and I am not going to even try for heroic solace.
Yes the snowflake was nerfed with an ICD. Yea the snowflake is a use effect but it is one I find a use for. If I know big damage is coming I hit and and push out +14% haste.
edit: Get rid of that off hand the
Anub 10m shield
is better. If you like crit there is a
crit
version.
If you want mp/5 haste the next best is
10m sindragosa
.

I don't agree with wasting your time to farm old content, especially when it's
not
going to be an upgrade. As a shaman it's preferable to have a nice shield of course, but when it comes down to it you just need the stats on it, so an offhand works all the same.
10 man ToC shield (enchanted and gemmed) VS Shriv Heart
:
http://www.wowhead.com/compare?items=47812.0.1128.0.40128;50309
You will
lose
12 crit, 30 haste, and 9 SP to gain 35 int and some mp5.... not worth the trouble at all if you ask me. Oh and you lose some armor... are you getting hit often enough to need it? Perhaps you should get new tanks.
Next up is
Bastion (with enchant) VS Shriv Heart:
http://www.wowhead.com/compare?items=47079.0.1128;50309
So you need to go through all that trouble for 49 int and 11 SP? I admit it's a better option than the 10 man shield but really, unless you have a guild that has ToC 25 on pure farm mode it's really not worth pugging to get.
Stick with current content and get
Bulwark of Smouldering Steel
(25 man Marrowgar) or the
Lost Pavise of the Blue Flight
already mentioned from 10 man Sindragosa. The 25 man Marrowgar shield will probably be easiest to get.

I do not respect shammies who do not use shields.

Double Solace is still completely absurd. 272mp5 while the buff is at maximum stacks. Who cares that some trinkets have more SP, the amount of mp5 you can change into +crit with the help of the trinkets makes it the best trinket combo ingame. Now if only I could get my hands on the heroic version, and drop 100mp5..

I use whatever provides me the best stats. That said, I honestly prefer a shield, all other things considered equal.

Gondorath and tomgc are correct. Omen is not Snowflake stinks it's absolutely awful replace it quickly
Dual Solaces's are sick absolutely sick in terms of mp5 return. I have the Abacus and non-heroic Solace, and while I still run out of mana on heavy spam fights. Solace's ability to proc off every single heal is pretty awesome. The Abacus is pretty incredible too, and at ICC 25 lvl gear there is no need to worry about trinketing for SP and Haste.

Depends on mana issues. If you have over 25k or enough mp5 where you rarely go out of mana except on extreme cases than I would say spend the badges. The amount of mp5 gained from the Intellect trinket outweighs the rather glitchy proc mechanics behind the snowflake. Snowflake is a Ele or caster trinket though Paladins enjoy the trinket. For shamans the best trinket usage is MP5 and SP leave the haste and crit to gear and haste gemming.
