It's 5 healers or nothing.

I shouldn't have emphasized it as much, but I will tell you, that you can't deny, that hunters have (not only for f2ps) always been a really, hmm, let's say 'annoying' or 'obnoxious' class to face, ever since vanilla...
Even if, by some ridiculous miracle, spellhit gets fixed in 5.3, a hunter will always outdps (kill/win against in a duel that is) a mage/warlock/warrior/rogue(/monk), simply because they have the DPS, CC and mobility they need to do that. (No, I am not talking about a 900hp hunter winning against a 1.6k arms warrior like in Cata, but on the same gear-lvl, the hunter will win if he has a functioning brain- oh...) Even some hybrids that are not balance druids or priests will be easy-kill targets for hunters (talking elemental/enhance shaman, bad prot paladins in some ways, ret paladins, bad ferals/guardians).
And I will say it so everyone can understand: it's not the 10% AP buff that will make people QQ about hunters again, it's the amount of people that will reroll/dust-off because the skillfloor will drop (it's a fact that BM has a way higher skillcap than SV) and yes, it IS a really nice buff (imagine a mage getting 10/15% more SP next patch...). And if you want to deny, that hunters are ALREADY a really strong class in any spec, then sorry, dialogue over.

On a side note mages could get a 100% SP buff next patch and still not be a serious problem. They're just too squishy with a skill floor that's pretty high outside of arcane's iffy dmg spell on a 2 sec CD.

I think a 300 SP Barrage, critting you for 600s on a 2sec CD would be a BIT overpowered. Oh I forgot we have that already...

Hard to say, since we don't know if spell hit is getting fixed. the crit and int on the pve staff will be good for burst, but if you cant reliably hit your target, what's the point? Resil is getting nerfed, so I don't know.
I don't play a lock so you will want to wait for an answer from someone more lock savvy.

I'm in the same situation on my new mage and about 200 Honor away from the PVP Staff. I will borrow the staff and resell it every hour and convert excess HP to JP. 5.3 will show which will be better or if i want the more defensive or offensive weapon.

Buy the pvp staff, even if resil is nerfed it is better for the hit rate. I would only reccomend the pve staff in cata when int actually meant something. The crit is okay but destro doesnt rely on crits really, hitting those fears is far more important

I need help to decide what looms to get first for my subt. rogue. Going to get one at Darkmoon and one with honorpoints. Trinkets, daggers or armor? He is bis preboas right now.

get the shadowcraft tunic first since its the largest difference statwise. the second one i would go is the shadowcraft shoulders since wicked daggers are very comparable to the boa weapons. Some rogues have boa weapons but still prefer the wicked daggers, so i would invest honor into weapons as the last thing you do as long as you stay sub.

I would use your honor to get the BoA dagger, since it has higher on hit damage than the JP dagger. Also, since BoAs scale to 24 in BGs I've found that wicked daggers don't really compare anymore. I'd start with 1 dagger for your MH for ambush / hemo, then focus on tunic > shoulders as Kibbies suggested.
