Yep. .That’s right the level 80 Hit Rating Cap is now at 8% instead of 9%.

Also, Focused Aim only affects the Hunter’s Hit and has NO impact on your pet’s dps. That means if your using a 3/3 Focused Aim to get you from 5 – 8%, your pet will remain at 5%.

Also, for Pet hit, everything is rounded down. So if you have 7.99 Hit, w/o Focused Aim (which is basically the cap), your pet will be at 7% and still have a 1% miss.

So for everyone interested here’s the new Hit Breakdown.
