Trinkets
There are a few extremely strong trinkets this tier, a few decent ones, and then a bunch of “meh” ones. The main two standouts are Astral Antenna and Sigil of the Cosmic Hunt. Both of these trinkets are extremely good at what they do. Astral Antenna offers a mountain of Crit which we love, and Sigil of the Cosmic Hunt is a damage proc trinket that just has really good numbers that also serves as a great execute.
Most Trinkets this tier fall into the category of “these trinkets but just worse. Ara-Kara Sacbrood, Incorporeal Warpclaw, and Ticking Sack of Terror are generic damage proc trinkets that just end up being worse than Sigil of the Cosmic Hunt. Meanwhile Improvised Seaforium Pacemaker is just less crit than what Astral Antenna provides. All of these trinkets are still great until you get BIS, but there isn’t much to say about them.
The two worth mentioning though are Signet of the Priory and Unyeilding Netherprism. Both are on use stat trinkets which can be great for Mythic+. Signet of the Priory should mostly be used on cooldown, meanwhile Unyeeilding netherprism should be held until you use Vanish.
Embellishments
Outlaw continues to be a spec that puts a high premium on damage procs, which means that the Elemental Focusing Lens will be our go-to embellishment for all content.
Reshii Wraps
Reshii Wraps is a new Cloak released in Patch 11.2 and will be the only cloak you use (and the only one that can drop from any content in Season 3). You gain access to it via a quest chain and completing chapter 3 of the main patch storyline.
The Reshii Wraps are upgradable via Ethereal Strands and can have secondary stats of your choice added to it.
To add a secondary stat to the Reshii Wraps you use a Fiber in the Fiber Socket of the Cloak. The highest quality version of the Fibers requires a work-order to a Tailor.
When picking a Fiber, I strongly recommend simming your character for the best stat for your current gear and intended content. If you just want a quick recommendation for which Reshii Fiber to use, then use Pure Chronomantic Fiber (Haste).
To find out more about the Reshii Wraps, you can read the Method Reshii Wraps Overview Guide.
Best D.I.S.C Belt & Miniature Titan Disc Effects
The overall best belt choice is Charged Bolts, even after the nerf it still looks a bit ahead in all circumstances. Charged Crystal is a close contender and is less purely random in who it decides to target in AoE situations.
