T10 Chest or Token Chest?

My armory is in sig (Toiletduck).
I've saved up 95 Frost badges for my new chest.
Both the T10 chest and token chest are upgrades, but the token chest would be the biggest upgrade (ilvl251 vs 264).
I know I'm supposed to rush for 2pc T10, but the token chest is such a stat jump, especially with the additional socket.
Is the 2pc T10 worth it right away? I'd eventually pick it up.

No, you should not get the Frost Emblem Chest, but the T10 one instead. The T10 2 piece bonus makes the T10 Chest + another piece of T10 vastly superior to any Frost Emblem Chest.
The Frost Emblem gear is superior to T10 gear individually, but when you factor in the 2/4 piece set bonus from the Tier gear, the Tier gear comes out on top, but quite a large margin.
Also, you'll need your Bloodmage pieces if you wish to upgrade to the Sanctified and Heroic Sanctified pieces, and at Sanctified level the Tier 10 Chest is already nearly equal to the Frost Emblem one, even on an individual basis.
IMO, you should get the Tier 10 Chest, Head, Shoulders and Gloves, and grab the Tailoring Legs (
Leggings of Woven Death
), as the Legs are BiS, except for possible Lich King Heroic loot/Heroic T10 legs.

Yeah, that's what I thought.
I'm just stubborn with dropping 4pcT9.. 5% crit

Arcane isn't a spec that get's too much benefit from crit, so you shouldn't feel to bad about it. The 2 piece T10 bonus is a lot better for Arcane than 5% crit. If you were FFB or Fire/TTW than that'd be a different story, but your not so... ;)

I keep hearing that crit isn't as valuable compared to haste for arcane, which is fine, I do gear for haste/sp.
But why doesn't arcane benefit as much from crit? Is it the way arcane as a talent tree is built?

Also u do want the t10 4piece and the 4pieces that are the best are Head / Chest / Shoulders and Hands.
Thats also the reason to get the t10 chest as u dont want the t10 legs.
