Too much hitFollow

#1 Apr 18 2010 at 10:19 AM Rating: Decent
Trying to get my NE hunter up to raid ready, I was hurting for hit but found a couple nice pieces and am now at 311. I do not think that it does any good, so what now? I am BM still, but thinking of SV to gain DPS. I am JC/ scribe to aid my gear, still running older heroics for EoTs. PvP because I had honor and needed upgrades there. I only PvE and hope to get into 10 mans soon. Fire away

Well, as an Alliance toon, you only really need to have 230 hit (which is 7%) because you'll almost certainly have a Draenei. However, if you want to be safe, you'll need 263.

So, you need to lose 48-81 hit.

Now, I would like to call your attention to the fact that you are using HIT gems when that far over the cap. At the very least, lose the two DE hit gems (68 hit). Personally, I'd probably lose at least one of the 20 hit ones. After that, check female dwarf for which gems you want. I don't know if Hunters should be gemming for it or not.

And you have an int/stam gem. >.<

I was really low on hit for a long while, like 127. I put in all the hit I could but the gear just gave me so much that I sit here now. HP is also high (I think) at 19k. AP is 3700, I guess agil would be the gem of choicce. I will follow Mr Gory's advice and see what that says.

When I saw the title, I thought that this was going to be a complaint about the period from late T9 into T10, where there is so much hit on gear itself that you can hardly avoid it. My hunter is sitting at 271, with exactly zero from gems, enchants, or trinkets. And my next upgrade is one of the few pieces that has none now, so that won't be a help.

As for the OP, almost all of your hit is optional. It comes from gems and from the badge trinket. The 55 from the chestpiece is all you're stuck with. I agree with the first reply - drop at least some of the +34 gems for AP/Agi (depending on what spec you choose), and drop all of the others (that'll put off the biggest part of the regemming expense for later). If you're not flush with cash, use blue-quality gems on anything under ilvl 219 or 226 so that you can swap in exactly how much hit you need without breaking the bank. If you get a weapon upgrade, consider an accuracy enchant (it's very well budgeted if you can use all the hit) to allow you to drop even more hit gems for AP/Agi. Icewalker is also good for getting those last few points cheaply.

Basically, right now you want to drop big chunks of hit and make it up in dribbles.

Also, soon enough you'll have enough hit on your base gear that the badge trinket becomes situational at best, but by then you'll have had a few shots at the NES, if not the WFS, so you should be able to retire it gracefully when the time comes.

I respec'ed to SV and then went to FemaleDwarf. I guess I do not know how to use it, but one loot list (belt?) said to use Brilliant amber glow to add itell?? I did change one gem to the +34 agil and replaced the other DE with an yellow hit gem for now. Will have more time today and will spend some time with him. between running what ever I can.

When using the spreadsheet/FemaleDwarf/Rawr, it's important to set up all the parameters reasonably, especially buffs and fight settings. In particular, if you set the fight to be too long, or don't check mana regen buffs (totem or pally judgement, or replenishment), the simulation will have you running out of mana too quickly. Since dropping into Viper is such a big DPS loss, it will give Int and Mp5 an unusually high value to avoid the situation.
