just wanted to point another reason why druids should pick up two piece of T5 for MoP because mana isn't really an issue in MoP for resto druids(and only resto druids can cast regrowth anyways)
in MoP, you can make your regrowth 100% crit! and it only costs 29.7% of your base mana, so resto druids, having 400% more mana, you can cast 17 regrowth that all crit in a row without going OOM (not taking into consideration of mana regen)! currently on live, in order to cast 17 regrowth in a row, you need 14101 mana which is hard to achieve if you use two piece T5 and stack resil, furthermore, only 11 out of the 17 would crit because your crit chance is only 60%, so you can't really make sure you don't overheal with regrowth. all of these problems are solved in MoP!

OMG, i think i found the most OP 2 piece bonus:
two piece bonus by this set, i told you T5 is the best!
in MoP, the cost of greater heal will drop to 155 at 70.
which means that, if you manage to bring your target to full health, you only use 55 mana per greater heal, 55 mana can be easily regenerated!!!...so you can pretty much cast greater heal non-stop infinitely!!!
although, this is mostly PvE because in PvP you don't get to greater heal that often.

On PTR flash heal noncrits for 16k, there is no reason for greater heal to be on your bar at that point. Flash and greater cost the same mana, and both heal 0->100 guaranteed, the only difference is cast time.

But if you are able to freecast and have this set bonus, you will save mana, so it would be more mana efficient to cast Greater Heal, supposing of course that you don't need the fast top up that Flash Heal provides.

agreed.
also, the shadow 2piece looks pretty good too.
it has a 6% proc chance so basically that's 9 mana returned per spell cast.

I think you're trying a bit too hard to find these things. What i mean is, a 9 mana return per spell cast, or a slightly more efficient greater heal obviously doesn't make up for the massive stat loss from 2 pieces tier 5.
I get that you think it's fun to find these things (like the rogue haste thing before) but mostly they turn out not to be viable at all :-/ Although admittedly the druid one has potential

as i mentioned in OP, if you are a rogue having a bad time in BG's right now, feel free to level to 71 and start using Nifflevar Bearded Axe.
if people started farming for Nifflevar Bearded Axe when they saw this thread, started a month ago, they would have gotten it by now.

those wands are pretty good if you can't get golden staff and/or felmyst staff.
