Shadowfiend +Hit

[Mavfin]

I am not sure whether you are saying the Shadowfiend gets the priest's melee hit percent or the priest's spell hit percent for its attack. Since I believe the Shadowfiend's attack is a melee attack I would think it would be the melee percentage?

There is no difference between melee and spell hit from gear anymore.

Yes, but, X amount of hit rating gives different percentages to spell and melee hit.
