Fury Hit question

[Athaner]

Hello, once again, i have a question. I dont look much at guides etc. With 4.0.1, my warrior is horrible. A friend told me they changed the hit cap for fury, im wondering if this is true, and what it is now. Sorry for the noobish question, but i have been searching without luck. And thank you for answers

P.S: Damn you blizz for giving us Crit gems -.-' + if you got any advice for sockets/reforging, what to pick, your tips would be welcome

Go for the 27% hard cap. Reforge haste to hit, gem 20 str in red, 10 str/10 crit in yellow, and 10 str/10 hit in blue.

no no no..

hit cap yes, reforge crit to hit/haste. leave your haste on gear alone. socket STR and you can use hybrids for socket bonuses because hit/haste are great now.

Pretty much correct. Haste is incredibly weak for us and it's more important to keep crit to maintain Flurry up-time.

yes yes yes
crit is still better than haste from my experience reforging back and forth and the theorycrafting on the EJ warrior forum. If you have any thoughts on why they are wrong, please share them.

Thank you very much guys

On a related note I can't seem to find any current information on slow/fast or slow/slow for SMF spec. Logic points to slow/slow as rage is normalized, but I'd still like other imput.

Off the top of my head I believe it's 738 hit rating to be exact.

[phantomlink]

787 hit is 24% ( 32.8 hit per 1% )

imo forget fury for now and go arms its more dps due to the bleeds. and yes deep wounds does 12-15% of your dmg which is alot that your missing not being 85. fury atm is broken and arms isnt too far ahead but it is the better choice. dont armory my warrior for any arms gems cuz im too lazy and poor to regem but i can tell you that 8% is your hit cap and other than that u want str and some haste to drop ur mele swing down some to about 3 seconds speed. again i dont find a need to do this theres only a few months till cata and id rather take a break from raiding and do it here and there.

I know my tooltip in game gives me 27.03% (with precision) hit and I have 739 hit rating. Something somewhere isn't adding up. I have not missed with 739 hit rating as well.

Definitely not. Good fury warriors are still pulling 16-19k in ICC 25. You won't see arms doing that.
An above poster was wrong in saying don't touch haste, reforge ALL your haste into hit.

I know on the Beta they slightly lowered some combat ratings ( hit at least ) so now it's 30.79 per 1% I just wasnt sure if they went with this on live, seems they did

fury atm is broken and arms isnt too far ahead but it is the better choice.

It all depends on gear level. Mostly 264/277? Fury outpaces by a long shot. Anything less and Arms can keep up. As usual the better your gear gets the better Fury gets, but with the hit rating and crit requirements it's difficult to excel at. However with top end gear Fury is still clearly ahead. Arms is much better than it was though which I'm glad to see.

p.s. This is based on post buff statistics, not the PTR
