WotLK Value of hitrating on healers

[linusholm7]

I always thought getting hitcapped was the most important parts in gearing so you 100% do not miss you Hex/Psychic Scream etc.

However when I browsed some high rated teams on warmane (Icecrown specifically) many did not even have 2% hit and some not even 1%.
Is this a Warmane thing or what is the reasoning behind this?

You need 5% spell hit.


Just wait until they miss Wind Sheer at crucial moment.

I also noticed that many high rated resto druides dont use hit.
No idea why, I wouldn't like to miss cyclone...

Another story is spell penetration. As far as I know it should be possible to resist magic based CC spells.
Seems like resistant is still bugged when it comes to fully resist spells.

Can confirm spell pen works however, I believe hit may not work properly

They are just playing the number game. They prefer to have a little bit more healing throughput and hope they're not gonna get unlucky. I think it's stupid to rely on rng in pvp, missing a cc can cost you the game.

yes you are right
