I'd like to know whats the hit cap for balance?
I used to have like 314 HIT then I heard the hit cap aint 17% hit that it was lower and now I'm pretty much confused if I should just get more hit until it wont go up anymore or is there a magic number for this.

My Armory

P.S: Does hit cap changes between classes aswell? if so, anywhere I could check up on the hit caps for the others too? Thanks.

Hit cap flat is 17%.

You're given a talent Balance of Power that gives you 4% more chance to hit. So you're at 13% now.

If you spec Imp FF, thats another 3% bringing you down to 10%.

The magic number for 10% should be 262, but to be safe I would go with 263-270.

If you were alliance you could throw in heroic presence buff you get from draenai and you would need 9% and the magic number would then be exactly 236 hit.

As for hit cap changing between classes, yes it does in theory. Technically all spell classes have a flat rate of 17% for hit cap. Once you reach 17% via hit rating and talents any more hit rating is absolutely useless. Melee classes have a hit cap rating of 8% though some say its 9% but due to recent break down of the math it has been pretty much proven that its 8%.

So if it's a spell cast its 17%, melee is 8%.

Hope I answered you're question.
