Str is AP. So im not sure why you put both down. Youre most likely doing something funny like DPSing bossess with SoC or not standing behind them or failed to notice a huge drop in expertise.
thus...
Link your character so we dont have to make guesses.

i can't tell you how much it drops. But, since i've been retri pally for about 2 years now, i know that being hit capped is importand. If u are not hit capped ( 8% / 263 rating ) I would recommend you that you try to get all the hit enchants u can get, and if that ain't enough, try gem for it.
Some would say that gemming for it ain't worth it. But, imo it is worth it !
Good luck! :)

Never gem hit. Gem strength. Hit comes on gear in abundance.
Anyway, your ret needs alot of work. You have zero expertise. Along with hit this is going to lead to weird results on sub 2~min fights. So thats why you were lower. Maybe on a 5 min fight it would of been slightly more with the large amount of ap, when the hit,exp and crit can average themselves out.
You need to drop the CS glyph and get the SoV glyph for expertise. I assume you're talking about PvP, so drop the resilience gear and do heroics and get your set stuff.
Also, enchant your purple gear.

Even if it's a yellow socket with +str socket bonus? 8>

Depends on bonuses =P
I mean you can gem +hit if you're rich, because you're usually just going to replace it all with str anyway.

Gem just one type of gem. It looks nice and clear. It always makes me cry when I have to gem the tear for meta.

Let me quote some anonymous sage, "lolwut?"
Gem what you need. Hitcap is important. If you can't get there with your current gear, drop some gems in where the socket bonuses would be the best. Just be ready to replace them when your gearset changes. And don't tell me you would gem straigth str in yellow socket, that would wield 4str bonus if matched, if you had 2xT9. It might be nice and clear, but it is suboptimal. And that is just icky.

Like I said, if you're rich (or as svirve said a good enoigh bonus). Otherwise you're going to be gem juggling every other gear upgrade, or worse yet, not getting a hit piece because it would put you over hitcap even though you have hit gems to remove.
This
would not be worth matching sockets.
Gem Str for long term itemization in mind. Unless youre in half blues and then youd have bigger issues.

yeah. your not getting any benifit by Not socketing +20str in Every slot, aside from the meta requirement.
the only acception would be if the +socket bonus was more than +10 str. Then you can get a little stam on top of 20+str. but then you could Only use the
gem
that is +10 str +15 stam.
IOW, always gem for Str once you reach hit cap. no excuses. and if you find an item that offers a +10 or more Socket bonus, let me know =)

+10 STR / +15 STA
would be the way to go for a BLUE socket if there was a socket bonues for +10 STR
For a Yellow Socket
+10 STR / +10 Crit
would be amazing.
hmmmmmm +10 STR socket bonus....yummy

Agreed. but I do not believe there is a +10 socket bonus on Any piece of gear. If there Was such a bonus (i have seen +8) it's for More than 1 gem. Like the DK stuff we can use that is 2 or 3 blue sockets with a +8 to Str socket bonus. Still not worth it =)

Roughly, without looking at my weights +6 str would be the minimum to get +10crit or the like.
