in one Interview in mid-March WoW’s Game Director Ion Hazzikostas said that the Primeval Stones or Onyx Socket Ring should basically be an upgrade for everyone. However, shortly before patch 10.0.7 was released, simulations showed that the effects of the stones represent a loss of damage for many DpS classes compared to a normal ring.
Therefore, at the last minute, some again Primeval Stones strengthened. Some of the effects are now 25% better than before. Fully upgraded, the ring with the special gems should be interesting for many classes again.

But Ion Hazzikostas also said that the onyx base ring should definitely be replaced with a normal ring with season 2 in WoW (buy now) patch 10.1. Maybe you would have to weaken some effects afterwards. Because some primeval stones not only grant DpS or defensive advantages, but can also slow down opponents, for example.
