T13, are set bonuses worth it between RF and VP gear?

I haven't had much luck with drops in Dragon Soul, though it means I have earned lots of Valor Points.
I have all of the Valor gear that is purchasable, but am still waiting for shoulder and staff drops in either Raid Finder or 10m DS that I've been running regularly.
I need advice for a destruction warlock, currently ilvl 392. (swapping the robes doesn't affect my ilvl, but just to give you an idea of where i stand gear-wise)
For the set pieces, I've never gotten the gloves, shoulder or hood drops, but I do have
Leggings of the Faceless Shroud
, the 379 reg DS drop.
I don't know if it's worth keeping
Robes of the Faceless Shroud
, the 384 raid finder drop in order to keep the 2pc. set bonus of the doomguard/infernal or to just equip
Robes of Searing Shadow
, the 379 valor point purchase.
If anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much!

For me, I would keep the 2pc. I think the bonus is stronger then the inflated stats on the valor chest.
Notice the tier chest has 3 sockets, and a +30 socket bonus. Plus haste > crit. Try hard to get the 4pc. It is very strong. Even if it's all RF gear. Run with guildies or friends of the same tier token to try and win it for you.

Yes, keep/get the set bonuses, even LFR. The VP chest is probably not worth using since you have to use your tier chest to keep the 2pc. When you get a 3rd set piece, depending on which one, it may be a
very slight
increase to use the VP chest over the LFR one, but it's not worth it in my opinion. And when you get a 4th, depending on what it is, you'll want to use the VP helm before using the VP chest as your offset piece.
I have a little write up about how to handle T13 gearing in general in my
gear guide
. In any case, maintain the 4pc once you get it reguardless of ilevel, which offset piece you should use is outlined as well. Keep chuging at the LFR and normal for your tier pieces.

Thanks so much guys!
With the luck of my rolls I won't be able to get the 4 pc. before MoP comes out, I've only gotten 3 drops in 4 months of raid finder and about 6 weeks of running 10 man regulars.

Ew. Thats bad. I still haven't upgraded my
Globe of Moonlight
since DS came out, so I feel your pain.
