Spirit and Crit Rates

Quote:I would think it would depend on what blizzard considers a "hit" for those buffs. using the tables that Quark listed and keeping the 20% crit rates the same etc. if these debuffs only effect the "hit" section of the table than it would look something like this:

That seems unlikely, since it appears that really +hit% items (and therefore I assume -hit% debuffs) really act as -miss% (and I assume +miss% respectively) items. There's some discussion on my guild's boards and on the Elitist Jerk's forum that there might be some kind of miss% cap. I guess Wowwiki says that there's a miss% cap at 60% but no evidence is given to suggest how this was determined. (You can't believe everything on Wowwiki -- so much is wrong there).

Assuming that there is a 60% miss cap and that the target is high enough level where let's say there's a 10% chance of glancing blows, then I would guess that the table for someone who has 30% crit would look like this:

000-060 -> Miss
061-065 -> Dodge (assume 5%)
066-070 -> Parry (assume 5%)
071-080 -> Glancing
081-099 -> Crit

Glancing blows can't crit, so that would explain the non-crit damage. In this case, the person would have only a 20% chance to crit, because 10% of his or her theoretical crit was pushed off the table. That's my first stab at it, anyway.
