Hm... should I not trust the haste values then? How accurate does the sim get?

For hit, what do you mean by the "break points are pretty close together"? I'm assuming you mean that between high and low hit ratings, you're still hitting a whole lot? Hit - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft shows that with just 98 hit, you will still only miss 5% of all attacks, which isn't bad I suppose.

So perhaps it's true that crit would be worth twice as much as hit... maybe even haste at 8x. If you're dealing 4k damage with 95/100 hits, it must be better than dealing 1k damage with 100/100 hits. Obviously those number of hits will be reduced according to expertise and glancing blows... and the 100% hit would mean better proc uptime.

Very interesting.

Are there any plans to add back in Trinket EP values?
