Mod edit: Moved to Q&A

So if I have all three legendaries, what combination of them should I use? The guide ranks the legendaries individually but won't certain combinations provide better results?
Gloves + Shard sim at 895k, but TW doesn't directly affect the gloves' ability
Bracers + Shard sim at 882k, TW causes more frostbolts -> more FoF -> more bracer stacks.
Gloves + bracers sim at 891k -> These two seem to compliment each other the best during IV, and seems to be more versatile.

Here's my profile if needed.

Edit: I assume if I ever get the belt, and I'm doing a raid boss with AoE or some Mythic+ I'd wear the belt and the bracers?

Most people play bracers + shard for farm kills where you really benefit from the double hero (short killtimers).
I'd say you should use bracers + gloves for slower progressfights. I don't see any situation where you would play gloves + shard

Just tried Gloves + Bracers for the farming run. I think I play better overall with it. The TW ring always annoyed me because I can't really TW before the raid wants to at times and I'd have to wait for someone else to TW which may or may not line up with my CDs.

For mythic+/lots of adds, it should probably be the belt (which I don't have yet) and bracers right?

Bracer+ring if able to get double lust or more (with full CDs, second lust for last 15 secs of IV+pot is not what i'm talking about).
Replace ring with gloves if 1 lust+CDs.
Also gotta play around gloves not to munch, otherwise it might not even be a gain over shard.

Not munching as in not having past 3 FoF charges, and if FoF/BF proc at the same time while casting FB, I want to FB->IL, then FB->BF->IL.

What happens if I happen to cast BF, then a FoF procs? Do I munch it into Winter's Chill, or do I FB->IL?

I always have issues figuring out what to do when I get a bunch of FoF procs with FO, I usually just spam IL during that time.

Depends on your stats, due to chain reaction uptime, but the difference very small in actual parses.
