*All stats are unbuffed*

Alright, I'm having some problems with spell hit. In my trash killing gear I'm at 1163 Spell Dmg, +36 Spell Hit, and 26.3% crit.

My spell rotation is just full blown scorch throughout the fight. I know everyone says that the Fireball - Scorch rotation does more dps, but I'm typically at 850dps, and #1 or #2 in dps in our fights, and when I've tried the fireball rotation I've usually been a little less on dmg + I like to PvP and scorch is better than fireball imo for that.

My problem is on bosses; my +hit gear is at 895 Spell Dmg, 148 hit, and 22.79% crit. I've tested this on Prince, Gruul, High King, and Lurker, and on every fight my dps is 50-100 points higher when I'm in my Trash Gear then when I'm in my +hit Gear(800 vs 850-900dps). I can't seem to find, either what I'm doing wrong, or why spell hit is rated so high.

I've even ran my spec and gear through the mage calculator and it even tells me that my +hit gear should do more dmg, but up to date it hasn't.

Any Opinions?
