Enlighten Me!

This last week, I somehow picked up Enlightenment from ToC-10. It's a staff, with spell power, haste, and crit. I must say it was a surprise as I've not bothered to even look at staves for quite some time.

Let's look at the stats:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
72	92	113	108	550	2

---

Now compare to what I had:

Spectral Kris:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
30	30	36	46	487	1

+

Voice of Reason:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
49	49	46	31	74	0

Total:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
79	79	82	77	561	1

---

The difference was:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
-7	+13	+31	+31	-11	+1

---

The result was an upgrade. The 11 spell power lost could easily be made up with the additional socket.

But what if I pick up the Guiding Star?

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
36	48	0	49	550	0

Voice of Reason:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
49	49	46	31	74	0

Total:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
85	97	46	80	624	0

---

The difference would be:

Stamina	Intellect	Crit	Haste	SpellPower	Sockets
-13	-5	+67	+28	-74	+2

---

74 spell power is a big deal, but so is losing 67 crit.

So, that's a lot of numbers. LT;DR is this -- I'm no longer after the Guiding Star. It looks like the staff will be in my possession until I can upgrade the shield, and I'm not sure that's going to happen any time soon.
