Confirmed spell hit broken ~26% --25-Mar-2013
 
Has anyone send in a bug report to the bug tracker? I just did it myself. Maybe this is necessary to get the developers to notice these things that might get overlooked by the casual player. Quote is from a ticket i send in about "Stone Guard Greaves".

Confirmed spell hit still broken for non-spec specific spells. ~26% miss
 
Confirmed still broken spell hit ~26% (27-Mar-2013)

Probably not going to update this again unless a hotfix, patch, etc is released. Not worth playing 1 daily game as mage atm.
 
I've noticed missing with my 24 too while being capped and i didnt try my 20 lock lately because of this missing crap.

I'll go spam the EU forums i guess a bit later this afternoon and include DV's stuff with that.

Qball pls link to the forum so i can request sticky, ive also sended a ticket:


Hi, I´ve been playing in low levels battlegrounds and i noticed a bug, i think.
And i also have question:

So in battlegrounds i should benefit from secondary stats like im at maximum level possible in that bracket, but i dont.
I noticed this on my hit ranting scaling, i have a level24 that gets hit capped with 9hit in bg but my 20 that should consired 24 inside bg needs more then 9hit.
In my level 24 the melee hit is 3.00% and in spell its 6.00%, it duplicates, but in my lvl20 it doesnt duplicates, why?
Now this i think its a bug, i am spell hit capped with my caster, but i still miss, i tested all this in game, and also read in forums people complaining about it.

Please anwser my question and fix the bug :)
Ty for your time.

Still broken, eta 2015
 
It happened a few times last night. I thought maybe I was just getting sloppy with my Pet Freeze placement but finally I saw "Pet: Freeze Miss" or however Scrolling Battle Text writes it out. 6.91% hit in battleground.

Anyone else notice this?

Here's hoping this means they are looking into hit issues and trying to tweak things lol

Aren't they dropping the amount of hit needed per level next patch? If so I'd say it's unlikely they'll bother to fix this before that drops
 
Has anyone been having misses in PVE? I noticed I was missing on level 24 mobs chest farming. I reset SKADA before some of the pulls to make 100% sure. This was with 16.5% hit on an elemental shammy. I had misses with LB, ES and FS. I wonder if hit is broke in general and really broke when BG scalling is thrown in.
 
I would just remove hit from the game and just give all dual wielding characters a default melee miss chance of 15 to 10% so people won't bitch about it. This auto attack wise speaking. Imo, Hit is as redundant as Defense was.

Those misses against level 24 mobs are not a bug. It's part of how one's miss chance greatly goes up versus higher levels, or why level 24+ are very annoying. Approximately, one experiences a +5% miss chance per level versus foes with that much extra levels, or [for example] against a level 24 mob or player outside battlegrounds (to a degree): (6+5x4)%=26% miss chance.

Cite, supposedly from 5.3 PTR Patch Notes (from miss chance of +5% per level to +2% per level), though unclear if implimented in 5.3 PTR.
And more specifically, the battleground miss-chance bug in question is a battleground scaling bug (dps caster chances to miss are calculated as if they're still level 20, as oppose to 24, even though their hit ratings were scaled), and not a bug on hit rating itself.

This is misinformation as indicated by [post=645717]Reflexz[/post]. Just to reiterate, miss chance has never been 5% per level for players. (Unless we are talking about THAC0, but... wrong game.)

In that case, it wouldn't effect me; I roll 20s.
