Wait... What?

I was reading the rogue compendium earlier, and it says the hit cap for rogues is 99 - 237/315. Can some 1 explain this to more more clearly. I am about to upgrade my belt to Vengeful Noose and my hit will drop to 215 rating. Does this mean that I will still be hit/poison capped or will i have to work on getting more hit rating. Armory link is in my sig.

Spreadsheet it. You will be below the poison cap at 215 hit, but that may not be a terrible thing because noose is a great belt.

You should be VERY close to the crit cap though with that little hit...check a spreadsheet...now.

Yeah spreadsheet works wonders, but i believe what they are referring to is the specs
For combat it doesnt rely on poison damage as much as yellow and white damage so you are usually fine having the yellow cap of 99 although the more the better but i wouldnt worry to much about gems or enchants
Mutilate on the other hand is so much poison that if you dont have that like 237 spell hit cap your really gonna screw yourself on dps.
Ironically my rogue is not my main anymore but has grim toll still and pyrite infuser so hit isnt an issue im actaully like 130 over haha

Looking at your armory tho and seeing as your combat i dont think your hits an issue but yeah check spreadsheet for your crit cap

i have spread sheeted the noose upgrade, but what exactly would I be looking for in the spreadsheet. The item is a definite upgrade, 300+ DPS , but basically i wanna make sure i stay hit capped. Thanks for the quick responses btw

Poison hitcap is 237 WITHOUT draenei, 210 with it on the same group. This is ofc with either spriest or boomkin

You are looking for a DPS increase, so if it comes out as a 300 DPS increase, use it. At the top right hand corner though, make sure that your MH crit rate is less than your crit cap.

Remember that the famous "315 hit cap" isn't really a cap especially for muti Rogues. Higher hit means more OH hits and FA procs. In other words, don't stop at 315 just because you are "capped".
