Quartz Ring of Arcane Resistance worth wearing?

No. Scaled that hardly gives any resistance at all, not that it gave much in the first place. Sheep the pet and pray for a healer. Mage in sig is BiS glass cannon and with the amount off cc we have I'd even argue BiS.
LFH and Slippers of unturned loyalties and Mindthrust,
Mindthrust is the only thing. The rest is done on choice.
You're mage really isn't near BiS. You need conspirator's slippers, girdle of nobility, godreys britches, nobles robe, ivycloth bracers of intellect, and dread pirates ring. And maybe the green hitcloak.
.....what do you think soft crit capping is?
Not shatter crits.
I'm not sure if you're trolling, or if you just have no idea what the hell you're taking about. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're trolling.
The element of suprise might suprise you.
I have all of those, except maybe green hit cloak? I based my build on int>crit, take int, crit>int, take crit, int =crit, take int. Silk threaded and Corpse Rompers both scale better then their crit counterparts. I currently sit right above hit cap, so there's no need for DPR. 17% crit in bg with 151 sp (assuming I don't get the Northrend buff) and 0.91% over hit. With DPR and a full crit set I'm still under soft cap, so there's no need to push for 100% Shatter. I just meant to link to give him an idea of what he could build from. I'm yet to see a build that hit builds correctly while maintaining that much crit for the int they have. But eh, to each his own. I'm ok with 1700 hp in a bg, I feel like I can work with that. Professions... skinning could probably be switched out. Engineering dynamite is great for breaking smeld.
I just kind of assumed you were looking for a launching point for your build. Carry on
Said no mage ever lol
Quartz Ring of Arcane Resistence wowhead says 21.5% resistance, which is pretty good. But I'm assuming that's for lvl 15 and after BG scaling it's next to nothing. It's an interesting thought, you should equip it and join and let us know the numbers. I'm going to guess the 60 health from Argas would be better though.
You won't be under soft cap in BGs since MoP lowered it to 25%. Something I've noticed is that when you join a bg with a crit set that you gain about 5% crit.I have all of those, except maybe green hit cloak?

corpse rompers do scale better since conspi/merger doesnt scale, however Silk threaded scales to 9 stam 12 int and Godfreys to 9 stam 6 int 6 crit so its not better its just if you want the crit or the int. But in number of stats Godfreys scale better than their intellect counterpart.

not even full crit gear
According the Hida the extra 5% could be a ui bug, but since that is almost exactly soft cap without the monk buff I tried testing it by seeing if shatter would not crit, and for the past 3 games it always has.
