Upgrading from Veteran -> Vindicator, is it really worth it?Follow

I currently have all the Veteran's gear as well as both trinkets. I have 75k honor ready for S3 but I am not so sure I will be spending all this honor upgrading to Vindicator's.

The upgrade from Veteran to Vindicator is as follows:
Ring : +4 Stamina +4 Crit Rating +2 Attack Power +56 Armor Penetration
Neck: +4 Stamina +4 Crit Rating +8 Attack Power
Belt: +68 Armor +4 Strength +4 Stamina +4 Crit Strike
Wrist: +4 strength +6 stamina +4 crit rating +79 more armor (same socket but different socket bonus: this one's got +2 str, the old one had +2 resilience rating)
Feet: +83 Armor +4 Strength +4 Stamina +4 Crit Strike

I will get the Vindicator ring to use instead of the Crypts ring with resiliance or a pure dps ring.

The question I have is : is it really worth upgrading the rest of the Veteran's items, considering that besides the ring, none of the Vindicator's items have Armor penetration? Because the way I see it, it will cost 63k honor for +18 stamina, +16 Crit, +12 Str, +8 AP, +162 armor, -2 Resil. If I did not already have the honor saved up, I doubt very much I could have ground honor for this upgrade.

And finally, if I have both the current PVP trinkets already, is the new DPS trinket really worth getting if I think I will be focusing on 2/3 man arenas?

Yes forgot to mention I got 3 pieces of S2 and will have around 4K arena points saved up when S3 starts so I don't need S1 gear.

The only reason I did bother grinding the honor was I assumed all Vindicator items would have armor pentration and not just the ring. If I had known the actual upgrade I'm not sure I would have farmed honor so much!

Ahh well I guess WOW is all about min maxing so I will probably get them all!

I'm still not convinced about the new PVP trinket and will stick to Insignia and either Medalion or Bloodlust Brooch.
