I was mulling this over as well (lack of +hit). Best as I can figure is a couple of scenarios. First off, I am NOT a theorcrafter, so what I am saying might be totally off base, but hey.
1. stacking tons of +haste results in a net increase in DPS vs. +hit with no or little haste. Basically, they could be changing the damage mechanic from +hit to haste.
2. the new +haste gear is meant for faster DPS on trash and NON lvl 73 or ?? lvl bosses (where the +hit really comes in).
Feel free to comment or expand on these ideas.
