So it was a big deal when some terribly clever hunters stumbled over the fact that the hit cap was now at 8% rather than 9%. Blizz refused to comment on it, making some of us concerned that it was an accident and Blizz would “fix” it in the patch.
So I just unloaded 2,000 shots into a boss target dummy with 8% hit between gear and talents. No misses.
Hit cap is still 8%.
I fired 1000 auto-shots with 8.04% hit and missed twice. 198 hit rating (6.04%) + 2/3 Focused Aim (2%).
