Isn't hit rating only for melee hits, not spells? There is a separate "spell hit rating" stat for spells.

Hey! Thanks for checking out the guide. so, hit rating is a bit of a complicated thing for Paladins, Spell Hit as you mentioned does impact specifically: All Damage dealing Judgments other than Blood/Martyr, Consecrate, Exorcism, Holy Wrath and Holy Shield damage, but regular hit effects your auto attacks which a missed auto results in no benefit from your seal of choice, it impacts Avenger's Shield which is a large portion of your snap aggro, it impacts Hammer of Wrath which is a ton of threat sub 20% and most importantly it impacts Righteous Defense which against a raid boss has a 16% chance to miss, not having your taunt land in a raid could be deadly and possibly even wipe your raid which is why I rate this over spell hit personally and trying to gear for both hit and spell hit I feel like heavily reduces your ability to make progress towards the caps of either.

Hey there, thanks for the great guide! found 2 little mistake in the pre-raid bis section:

1. Wrists - Bracer of Dignity drop in heroic Arca, heroic is missing there

2. Waist alternatives - the Girdle of Valorous Deeds is already set as BiS, so it is mentioned twice.

Greetings!

thank you for the guide

 

i would like some more detail on the statement block>dodge>miss>parry priority please

is there some kind of direct translator to do with these stats, ie 15block = 18dodge or is it situational because of DR?

 

thanks

Hey! Thank you for checking out the guide. The reason for the priority is basically how much each stat contributes towards your ability to be uncrushable and how much mitigation you get per point, each stat requires a different amount of rating to give you actual mitigation.  7.88 block rating gets you 1% of block, 18.92 dodge rating gets you 1% chance to dodge, 23.65 parry rating gets you a 1% chance to parry.

Was just wondering why the Bis list for P1 has a 5% ability to be crushed. With raid buffs and consumables you will still have about a 3.5% to be crushed when all said and done.

Hey Goatofspace, I didn't include this specifically in the guide and for that I apologize but you can make up that difference by taking advantage of Enchants and gems, specifically Enduring Talasites in yellow sockets, Inscription of Warding on your shoulders, Dodge to cloak and block on your shield, that in this gear set up should acutely get you to exactly 102.43% avoidance.
