I am now using a +40 haste scope but if I get a +40 crit my crit chance jumps to 34+%.
Keep haste or swap to crit scope at the cost of some haste?

So, you have a low crit and is wondering if you should get more crit?
Haste is crap. Don't ever look for it.
"blah blah blah" soft haste cap, Steady at 1.5s "blah blah blah", not worth it. The gain does not overcome the loss of other stats.

Oh well 33% crit unbuffed is not that bad, come on. Keep in mind I'm not even close to "full epic purple uber-gear" after all.

Damn, I was 99.9% sure that haste IS a good stat for MM spec (that's why I see haste everywhere on hunter gear...).

Eh. I kinda agree with Argg0...I dont specifically gem or enchant for haste, and yeah, sure the soft cap is nice if you hit it, but don't take crap gear just because it has haste. An upgrade is an upgrade is an upgrade even if haste isn't on it.
But as for your question, the crit scope will always be your scope of choice, pretty much no matter what.
Btw, I commend you on your gear / spec. Nicely done. it's rare to see a Hunter who still has a couple of blues actually be hit capped =D You seem to be doing very well. 33% crit isn't bad at all. I can't recall exactly, but I imagine that I was somewhere near there myself when I was at an equivalent gear level, so you're doing just fine. More will come with gear =)

The hard part was getting rid of 2
Fang of Truth
: blue items level 78 that offer an amazing +66HIT... something not-so-easy to replace if you never raid. That's why I spent a lot of gold on
Darkcore Leggings
. I then replaced 2 Fangs with
Silvery Sylvan Stave
to greatly improve my DPS.

I replaced the hast scope with a crit one and I have to say... things are going better than what I expected (just finished VOA 10man @4200DPS overall damage). I have to rely on BOE and Emblems gear because apart from VOA10/25 and OS10/25 I almost never raid (did a half Nax once...). I'm not even in a guild, I love solo playing and PUGs.
Next step will be replacing
Dragon Slayer's Sabatons
with
Boots of Living Scale
as soon as Runed Orbs will cost a little less (still 1400G each). This way I'll hit 35% crit as well as more upgrades over blue boots. It's just bad Runed Orbs have that insane cost, considering we need 6 pieces for boe crafted items.
The hard part will be replacing
King Dred's Helm
and
Spaulders of the Black Arrow
with something better. No BOE/Emblem stuff in this area... damn!
### EDIT 1###
I did not even know there are 2 great helms with emblems of conquest (that I get from OS/VOA 25)... What would you choose for a MM spec between
these 2 pieces
?
### EDIT 2###
My bad, did not even see they're class specific items.

Either you trolling or you are blind
Yes I was blind, my bad. I do not like trolling btw. And I don't like bad attitude.

Stick to your range imo. You can get good rep
boots
with tones of hit on them from Argent Crusade if you still got hit problems
Nope, I'm already hit capped and those rep boots -great btw- would be a downgrade to my blues. Interesting suggestions, I'll read more on them thx!

If you get enough valor emblems you can try
these
as well
They lack sockets so I did a
3-comparison
, adding 2x 16AGI gems where I have sockets. I focused my current (blue) boots. What you think? I'd still go for the crafted ones (Boots of Living Scale), wouldn't you?

I'm in nearly full naxx25 gear and my crit is still under 35%.

and how many helms do you think are going to have 50+ hit on them from Uld? I have only seen one drop in 10s, and more importantly the tier helm (which is best in slot) has zero hit, just something to keep in mind.
True, I never noticed that. Losing 50+ hit will be a real pain to replace... I'll need at least to replace a ring with
Surge Needle
or hope for
Sinper
drop to cover part of the loss (and then add a +HIT gem. Let's see, the way is still long anyway.

I was actually over hit cap in my heroic gear without gemming for it. Now that I'm geared in mostly naxx 10 / 25 gear im struggling to stay capped. You can't predict drops so just roll with what you have atm.
