I doubt tier 8 bonuses will work much in favour of MM. 10% SrS dmg increase is below 1.5% total dps increase for MM and it is around 0.5% increase for SV and BM. This means there is less than 1%...

Actually haste is not important to keep proper rotation since one can never reach perfect 3xSS-1xES rotation due to lag, low frames and being human. Besides that I do not think anyone has got 590...

It is better to use +crit than only +hit scope because in case you use hit scope you trade 40 crit for 30 hit while with regemming you can trade 1 for 1.

But it will benefit if hit contribution to pets is going to be increased. Because Spirit Strike is magical attack and needs 16% increased hit chance.

Even if it is nerfed more from 3.0.9. state it is:

Looking at what Sin86 posted on previous page, stamina contribution went up from 45% (448/997) to 85% (847/997) so there is linear 40% increase in contribution from both stamina and AP.
