Everything is fine. Crit and haste are equal now, so just bump up those, and lose the extra hit when you can. I repeat: Haste and crit are equal. Keep increasing them :) Yep, you are 1% above soft crit cap. Everything is fine. Crit and haste are equal now, so just bump up those, and lose the extra hit when you can.

It can also only get to 264, where drops can get all the way up to 277. With my current items, my hit is perfect and crit and haste is going up equally, and i can spend my emblems (or gold, but im not rich :P) on tier pieces, the belt, idol and so on.

I was surprised to see that items with haste on them still work well for you after being soft-capped when I compared a few items - with the ej stat-weights to find out which item would be the biggest benefit. Lesson learned. Have you yet looked at crafted items and other things meanwhile? I have the feeling that my hit goes through the roof and thus thought about changing the t9 legs to the crafted cloth ones instead of the t10. But time will tell...

I use the easy way out :P You get 18% crit from raid buffs and talents (imp. insect swarm or imp. FF crit doesn't show on your character sheet, for example). Then you get 40% crit from eclipse, bringing your crit to 58%. Whats left is 42% to 100%, so if you are at 42% crit (on your character screen) fully raid buffed, with your idol running and so on, then you are crit capped :) Vamlo > There is an easy way to figure out if you’re capped, and there is a hard way.

It has an awesome proc effect, it has a socket, and the only reason why you wouldn't use this would be if it was possible to be hit capped without it with something else, AND there is a ring that beats its haste and SP proc. In any case, you would still want to increase both haste and crit, so getting 2x Ring of Rapid Ascent would work, but would probably throw you off a bit.
