(Spell)Hit requirement is now 17%

[Nezoia]

Since all the other caster forums is failing at this, I might as well write a little quick post about it.

The required amount of hit against a raidboss is 17% - This applies to ALL spells.

17% spellhit is 214 hit rating at level 70 !

We get 3% + 3% = 6% from talents.

11% spellhit is 139 hit rating at level 70 !

You'll need 139 hit rating on your gear for level 70 raiding

Unless you prefer to have an occasional [Resist] and stuff your gear with other gems, enchants and whatnot more.

EDIT: Oh, and don't bother telling me: I know that's not the way the cool-kids-who-down-bosses do it

Yes, I'm going with 10.46% untill I get my remaining T6 pieces.

Ive heard that level 71-80 spells will only need 9% hit to have 100% chance to hit.

Can anyone confirm?

False.

Was the result of a retarded shaman forgetting his 9% melee hit stacked with the spellhit, giving him 18% hit.

17% is the requirement.

Just wondering, does this only affect PVE or did they also change the spell hit for PVP?

PvP spellhit been raised with 1% as well.

But don't ask me what it is, I don't PvP.

wowwiki (outdated) http://www.wowwiki.com/Spell_hit:
Talents and gear combined, chance to hit with spells cannot exceed 99%. Casters should keep this cap in mind when considering their gear. In PvP at level 70, anything more than +3% chance to hit is excessive. For PvE raiding, bosses are considered to be 3 levels higher than the caster, meaning +16% is the most that will be effective.

So it should be 4 % now

Thank God I no longer raid, re-gearing for that would annoy me rather.

I take it you did not get KJ down?

Your Faerie Fire spell also increases the chance the target will be hit by spell attacks by 3%, and increases the critical strike chance of your damage spells by 3% on targets afflicted by Faerie Fire.

So? Bring owls with imp. faerie fire? Does it work as intended?

Would be 9% from talents/synergies, making it 89 Spell Hit (8%) to gear.

Fairie fire and misery do NOT stack afaik. Plus no owls want to cast it anyway - that is our job from now on.

[Nezoia]

It doesn't stack, and Misery is passively applied, while it's a huge mana cost for owls.
