Spell hit tanking pieces

Post by Trevor89 » Mon Mar 25, 2024 6:26 pm

It would be nice in the future PvE contents to add some tanking pieces with spell hit in some loot table or in some quest reward; those kind of gear pieces would be good to decrease the chance to resist taunt or thunder clap for example.
At the moment, there's just one trinket that provide +1% on physical hit and spell hit and maybe this semi-decent ring https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=22339;
other miscellaneous stuff with a bit of stamina got too much spell power and it feels such a shame to wear as tank. ty.

To get spell hit cap as a tank, you will need to spend insane amount of stat budget on it. How much do you need? 17%? It is 1% per item and some items should grant 2%.
What stat you can trade to get hitcapped?
Xudo - tauren warrior 19 Sergeant armory.
I don't raid and rank, so you can not bother asking.
Nerf high level enchants on low level gear
Add lvl requirement to bandages
Best and optimal gear for 10-19 twinks
Have fun not only at 60.

Warrior tier3 x 4 has spell hit? Zg drops trinket with spell hit? How much these pieces you need?

Taunt or thunder clap or similar tank abilities do not require 14% spell hit cap at all;
even 1% spell hit reduces the chance to got resisted a lot as I've noticed while using https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=51755 but it's not enough anyway;
likely as the tier 3 warrior bonuses show, a tank wouldn't go over 5% spell hit (unless he's a pally tank, in this case I can't provide any info about what's the best spell hit %);
about the previous users' tips:
- the helmet is dropped by a world boss;
- the zg trinket is nice but it got a CD;
- the dreadnaught set is just something a warrior tank would acquire on the later phases of the gameplay;
so still it would be nice to get some (not a lot), just few tank pieces with spell hit obtainable in the next future content, ty.

As mentioned before it would be stupidly expensive stat budget wise so the better way is probably to either make it a special effect like the t3 set bonus which only covers one or a few skills, or to add a talent to the respective classes' tank trees. There is a lot of room for improvement in the warrior def tree and a talent that more or less guarantees taunt hits would be a logical choice.

Paladins and Shamans both have talents in second tier for +3% spell hit.
So both classes can simple take it
