   You will use all the time Bold Inferno Ruby regardless of the socket color. If the Socket Bonus is +20 Strength or higher from a secondary stat (like 40-50Haste/mastery) then you can do the Socket Bonus for that specific item.
   
   
   
3. Reforging
   
   If you are not hit capped you can reforge the less important stats (Crit/Expertise/Mastery) to hit.
   Same thing for Expertise.
   Never reforge HASTE!!!. You can(and it's recommended) to reforge less important stats / stats in excess(hit/expertise) to haste. If the item alredy have haste is recommended to reforge to mastery.
