Is there an option on the forum to dislike posts?
I don't see any reason why items from Upper Karazhan (not Outland) should be higher and better than items from Naxx (KT and Sapph)

devs forgetting that ele shaman is a caster and so would want this trinket is indicative of how little the devs care about the spec.
