Hit Cap?

[DarKnightVIII]

I've been looking and can't seem to locate a thread about getting hit capped. And I don't mean just against 20's; I'm tired of missing at a critical moment against a 24 in a BG. Drives me freakin' nuts.

Depending on your class/spec, it's impossible (or very impractical) to hit cap against 24s. Welcome to the silliness that is this bracket

Hrrm....ok, then is there a thread showing what hit rating I should be going for depending on if I have a spell-based or melee class?

 

[Mrcer]

5% is hit cap for melee
4% is hit cap for spells

Veinte hitcapped vs 24s on his priest. 34 hit rating. Not sure how this relates to melee or other classes, but either way. 34 is ALOT of hit for a 20.

That was 23/skull, though it might be against 24s too

and it is completely 100% impossible for any caster spec besides shadow priests, balance druids, and elemental shamans to get near enough hit against 24s

 

[rsq]

And he also did so with under 1k hp; also, only 17% should have only capped him against 23s. Unless you're an alliance rogue/hunter it just doesn't make sense to even consider stacking hit for 24s.

As for hit capping against 20s, you need 8 hit for spell, 11 for melee (to add to Cer's post)
