Gema de aceleración mental continues to be the most powerful AoE trinket, even though it's now eight phases old.

La calavera de Gul'dan has a similar use to Mind Quickening Gem but is equipped with a lower cooldown, allowing for more uses.

Talismán Lengua de ceniza de perspicacia is the best static trinket in your collection and should almost always be equipped in AoE situations since it'll have 100% uptime in AoE.

Trenza espiral de serpiente is worth using when your Esmeralda de maná is available, as it then provides 225 spell power and has crit built into it. This is one of the best trinkets as long as the pack you're fighting is below the AoE cap.

Cabeza reducida de brujería is great if you're under the AoE cap as it's basically a better Icono de media luna de plata

El condensador de rayos has its niche spot for situations where you're AoE capped (usually 14+ targets), which allows you to add damage above that point through its Lightning Bolts.

Sextante de corrientes inestables isn't especially best at anything, but it's consistent at what it does, it provides 40 spell crit and has a really good 190 spellpower proc.

The following mistakes in this bis list:
T6 Legs (Leggings of the Tempest) are actually the bis pants and "Band of Eternal Sages" (Hyjal Rep reward) is by far the best ring for Arcane mages and bis together with 1x Ring of Ancient Knowledge. Based on https://cheesehyvel.github.io/magesim-tbc2/ (as well as the vast majority of the Mage Discord)
