Wow, a spell haste equip? Looks like a new coveted elemental shammy belt!

Comment by Taktik

37 spell haste rating = 2,35% increased casting speed, making your ligtning bolt an 1,96s cast (with 5p in lightning mastery)

Graphically matches the Skyshatter set (shaman T6)

Belt of Blasting-64 dmg, 23 hit, 34 crit
Flashfire Girdle-44 dmg, 37 haste rating, 18 crit + 7 crit from int=25 crit
Anetheron's Noose-69 dmg, 28 crit + 6 crit from int=34 crit
FF math:
in 100 casts 1.76% hastes adds 1.76 more lbs
1.76*1750(average LB hit)*1.4 (assuming 40% crit chance)=4312 dmg added
Although it has only added 1 extra cast, or 2450 dmg, it is already 76% into completing the 2nd extra cast and can be considered as adding that damage.
So basically, it is roughly like being able to have an extra 2% LO chance except it is 100% reliable and has nothing to do with luck.
BoB math:
20 dmg*6/7(spell dmg coefficient)*105(5 extra casts from LO)*1.4(crit chance)=2520 dmg added
9 crit*.0453*17.5*105=749 dmg added
Honestly, I don't feel like doing the hit math, since you are probably at the hit cap if you're pve specced and thus it is not useful
AN math:
25*6/7*1.4*105=3150 dmg
9 crit*.0453*17.5*105=749 dmg added

As you can see, I am only comparing how the haste compares to the difference in spell crit and dmg of the other two belts, they obviously add a lot more dmg in 100 casts than what is below
Blasting adds 3269 dmg in 100 casts if you're at the hit cap w/ a 1750 average hit
Otherwise it adds a good deal more, and would be better than the flashfire, but since I personally would not need the hit, flashfire is the best choice
Flashfire adds 4312 dmg in 100 casts w/ a 1750 average hit
Anetheron adds 3899 dmg in 100 casts w/ a 1750 average hit
If you had a higher average lightning bolt, the dmg from the crit difference would increase, but the haste difference would make a larger difference

In conclusion this belt> all others for pure DPS if you're at the hit cap for boss fights.

Spell Haste is getting a buff in patch 2.2 from 21 to 15.7 haste rating contributing to a 1% reduction in casting times.

Passive ability value:

2.1 = 1.76% reduction in casting time @ 70.

2.2 = 2.35% reduction in casting time @ 70

I have this belt and no other haste gear, my LB cast is 1.95 seconds.

For transmoggers; this is slightly darker color than shaman T6 chest. Almost unnoticeable. Naturalist's Preserving Cinch is 100% same color.

Comment by Niaw

These use the Black variant of the "Raid Shaman F" artwork (the Blue version of this art was used for the Shaman Skyshatter (Tier 6) set, except for the bracers, belt and boots).

Unfortunately I can only find a few pieces in this colour variation:
Wrists: Bands of the Coming Storm
Waist: Flashfire Girdle
Boots: two versions with different models using the same artwork: Boots of Oceanic Fury and Stillwater Boots

Comment by Thottbot

is this some kind of item turn-in like the t4 pieces?

Comment by Thottbot

LOL, that's totally Elem shammie loot mate :)
@Nummy goodness - no mate it drops in BT wich means it's a T6 alternative

Comment by Thottbot
