[Darkmoon Card: Death]: Each time you deal damage, you have a chance to do an additional 787 to 913 Shadow damage to targets with less than 35% health.
I can see this coming in handy, especially since it works for casters, range and melee alike. There are many times when a group wipes because they couldn't get a boss down quite quickly enough, for example. It would also be useful for soloing, just to speed up the process and give a little boost.
[Darkmoon Card: Greatness]: Chance to increase your highest stat by 85 for 30 sec when dealing or taking damage in combat.
I especially like this one. It would work for anybody, and adds a bit of individuality I think. Granted, 85 isn't the highest bonus to a stat you can find on a trinket, but it has the potential to boost stats that existing trinkets don't.

Lunacy still reigns king of the Darkmoon Cards. I mean...come on...who doesn't like hearing "THIS IS MADNESS!" when you kill someone in a BG?

Are these the only ones in the build or just a couple you decided to review? I guess im just not excited about these.. like if my int jumped up by 85 do i get the extra 1500 mana that would give my arc spec mage cuz a couple spell casts are nice i suppose.. but the crit and regen 85 int adds is not that hot

Greatness card doesn't sound like it'd be too useful to healers, since it only procs on dealing/taking damage.

Drakmoon Card: Death seems to be very good, extra dmg to those classes that already have moves to do more dmg when their target is under 35% health.
IE: Execute, Hammer of Wraith and many other classes is getting some way to do massive dmg comes wotlk.
Darkmoon Card: Greatness seems to be good, but isn't in BC and WOTLK most players highest stat is always Stamina... it's going to be hard to boost other stats unless you don't wear stamina gear.

An excellent point on the greatness card. My guess is that we will see less stamina in WotLK.

Darkmoon Card: Greatness screams "tanking trinket" to me, but I suppose the tanking changes may mean I'm totally off-base.
Arcane Mage trinket, perhaps?

[Darkmoon Card: Death].
More RNG when you die in 3 seconds because it triple proc'd when you got low. Awesome, just what we need.

Give me Darkness and Timbals Focusing Crystal and I will be a very, very happy Warlock.
