2.3 PvP Trinket or Icon?

[Dune]

Icon of the Silver Crescent

OR

[2.3 PvP Trinket]
Equip: +47 spell damage
Use: Gain 1750 max health (unknown duration, assume 15/20 seconds)

Let's assume it's for 3vs3 or 2vs2, where you have a chance at been the nuke target. The problem for me is, even in 3s, the chances of been the rush target are pretty slim most of the time, while the potential for burst with Focus+better frostbolt dmg+icon is pretty impressive.

edit: 1750hp unaffected by mortal strike/wound.

1.7k more health for 15~20seconds isnt gonna help nearly as much as 155spell dmg ( 1/3 of which goes to your elemental), especially in 5v5 unless your expecting to take the damage and not do any.

[Alphatier]

No, the Pvp trinket isnt really for you. With ice barrier, ice block or mana shield you have just as good options to prevent damage in just that global cool down.

Other classes will need it more, for example priests, moonkins, UA locks. Generally gib teams so they can maintain damage longer. Rogues too.
I bet warriors will use it too now, as it really helps against gib teams.

But Sl lock? Paladin? Shaman? Frost mage? They won't need it in 5on5 that much

Must have for 2v2. I'd equip it for 3v3 too.

I would say the icon. We have plenty of abilities to stay alive and with teammates to back you up can be very hard to kill. Most games I am left alone for the most part or can keep safe fairly well.

Probably going to get it and try to do 2s seriously when my rogue bud goes mut, might even use it for 3s since we run 3dps but stickin to icon for 5s.

45sec hypo now as well, mm...I don't think it's vs Icon anymore either, there's a crazy ZA trinket floating around:

If I can get my hands on that, I'll be using it over heal trinket I reckon; 53+211 is just way to powerful :p
