Need +hit helpFollow

Nublet question. My +hit is pitiful - 156, 176 w/food buff. We are running Kara now, but what gear should I have? I've got 70 or so Badges but want to keep those for 2.4. Most of the other gear I can upgrade using badges or Arena points will be a great upgrade but I'll loose +hit from what I replace. Should I farm the Assassination set? Just looking for a finger in the right direction. I'll go through the old posts as well.

Thanks,
-Mag

Edit: - Also - my gemming is horrendous. This could also be a quick fix. Thoughts?

well, looking at your armory you are gearing and gemming for PvP. If you want PvE stats (more hit than the regular old 5%) you need PvE gear. I dunno if i would regem your PvP gear for PvE, but just get new PvE gear entirely. What you have is good enough to do kara imo. Get kara loots.

replace your legs with Midnight legguards from SP, and stop rading in PvP gear. 176 to hit is not bad for doing kara btw

176 hit is fine for kara.

Some advice:

1.) Consider going swords. The dps from swords is a large increase from mutilate and is not position or poison required. Although always strive to be behind your target.

2.) Replace your gems with all +8 gems. The more hit (363 I believe) the better. This is especially true with combat builds.

3.) Work on your cycles. Well ****, as mutilate you would want to keep find weakness up 24/7! Im not sure on mutilate rotations but as combat swords (best raiding spec) you want to go 2s/5r until you get t4 set bonus then go with 1s/5r.

Give swords a try, you'll have to switch to them in SSC/TK most likely unless your guild has it on farm and doesn't care what spec you are.

Good luck!

Yeah, the Fel Leather gloves/legs/boots. If you can get the wastewalker 2 piece set(chest/shoulders) The 2pc is 35 hit rating. Icon of Unyielding Courage has 30 hit and 600 armor ignore use and also drops in H BF which is where the wastewalker chest drops anyways. I would replace your cross trinket with it. On a raid boss you really get very few kill shots to make it useful at all.

The heroics you have to run for the wastewalker stuff can be a pain but well worth it if you cannot get the shoulders/chest/trinket from kara. Slayer's Mark of the Redemption (SV quest reward) or Ravenclaw Band from Seth Halls are good upgrades to your Ring of Umbral Doom. Girdle of the Deathdealer drops in H BM if you can get in a group for it and is an upgrade to your pvp belt.

Those upgrades or kara drops should be plenty to get your hit ready for 25 man content and topping the meters or atleast putting up a good fight. For gems, I'd reccomend +hit for all yellows, +hit/agi for all reds, and agi/sta for those terrible dps blue spots. Your meta is the best, make sure to keep it active if you re-gem stuff.

BTW- most people are not this nice to type it all out, but I'm at work and have way too much time on my hands right now. Look up upgrades for yourself: www.shadowpanther.net Remember its not the end all list of what gear you should wear but it is a very good overview of what you should be looking for.
