Hit capped gear set (Pre-Raid)

#1 » Post by masterpig » 24 Aug 2015 00:27


If you're like me and are wanting to get hit capped here is a list of items that when combined will get you hit capped :) This is no where near "BiS" but if getting hit capped is important then with the following items you'll get that. Everything in this list is completely obtainable right now (23.8.15) without stepping foot into MC. Additionally if anyone see's anything wrong with this list or could be better remember to leave a constructive reply.

To work out overall stats gained from an item I have used the stat weights provided by Thillad in his/her post which can be found at - http://www.primalwow.org/forum/viewtopi ... 33&t=16166

Helmet - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16707 Drops from Darkmaster Gandling (Scholo)
46 AP
1.157% Crit


Necklace - Imperial Jewel - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=11933 Drops from Emperor Thaurissan (BRD)
32 AP

Shoulder - Truestrike Shoulders - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=12927 Drops from Pyroguard Emberseer (UBRS)
24 AP
2% Hit


Cloak - Earthweave Cloak - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=21187
This cloak is obtained from the quest "Volunteer's Battle Gear" you need to be friendly with Cenarion Hold to complete the quest and it requires tokens that are obtainable from their other quests.
15 AP
1% Hit
0.6% Crit


Chest - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16721 Drops from General Drakkisath (UBRS)
26 AP
1.2% Hit
1.04% Crit


Wrist - Blackmist Armguards -http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=12966 Drops from The Beast (UBRS)
15 AP
1% Hit
0.4% Crit


Gloves - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16712 BoE drop from Shadow Hunter Vosh'gajin (LBRS)
34 AP
0.9% Hit
0.56% Crit


Waist - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16713 BoE drop from UBRS
32 AP
0.9% Hit
0.56% Crit


Legs - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16709 Drops from Baron Rivendare (Stratt UD)
37 AP
1% Crit


Boots - Shadowcraft - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16711 Drops from Rattlegore (Scholo)
21 AP
0.84% Crit


Rings- Tarnished Elven Ring - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=18500 Drops from Tribute Chest (DM:N)
Unlike most rings, this particular one isn't unique-equipped so farm for 2 of them.
Following is based on both rings equipped.
2% Hit
30 AP
1.2% Crit


Trinket 1 - Strength of the High Chief - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=34423
This trinket is obtained from the quest "Words of the High Chief" in Winterspring.
50 AP

Trinket 2 - Royal Seal of Eldra'Thalas - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=18465
Easily obtainable as a rogue with 300 lockpicking skill. additionally you can purchase the quest item from the AH.
2% Hit

Main Hand - Mass of McGowan - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=13006 BoE drop
I know Mass isn't the best mace one could go for, Ironfoe is - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=11684 . But Ironfoe has a 1% drop chance from Emperor Thaurissan (Blackrock Depths) so I believe first port of call is Mass of McGowan.
Mass = 10 AP
Ironfoe = 2 extra attacks (proc)


Off-Hand - Hand of Edward the Odd - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=2243 BoE drop
This mace although looks really bad is infact really great, the swing speed and proc makes it to die for and expensive.
Proc - 32% haste

Ranged - Riphook - http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=12653 Drops from Shadow Hunter Vosh'gajin (LBRS)
22 AP

Enchants

Chest - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=20025
Cloak - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=13882
Wrist - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=20010
Gloves - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=20012
Boots - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=20023
Main Hand - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=20034 This Proc is excellent, 100 strength for 15 seconds?? yes please.
Off-Hand - http://wotlk.openwow.com/spell=23800

With this gear, without Enchants, you will achieve an exact hit cap of 11% or 110 rating, 394 AP with a further 40 AP from the 4-set bonus totalling to 434 AP, 7.357% Crit rating and the 6-set bonus which is pretty damn good.
With this gear, with enchants, you will achieve hit cap, 483 AP + 100 AP Proc and 8.797% crit rating.

Miss chance for dual wielding vs a lvl 63 (raid) enemy is 28%. Since so much damage comes from your white hits and poison procs, I'd advise getting even more than that.

So realistically it may be a better idea to just get the +5 hit enchant to boots instead

Technically to be capped all you need is 30 Hit Rating +5% Hit from Combat =8% you need. Idealy you want 12% spell hit +5% from combat =17% for poisons. 10 hit = 1% Melee hit. 8 hit =1% spell hit. Poisons are spells so you need 12% spell hit + your 5% combat talents for soft cap.
