base miss rate for 2H and ranged is 5%. Base miss for dual wield is 24%. Check your Damage as a rogue and realise 60% of your damage comes from normal melee attacks, not special attacks.

You need ~8% +hit to never miss on a special, vs raid bosses, but every extra point up to +24% will increase your DPS more than crit and AP. Crit and AP can be increased by pots/buffs/trinkets etc... there is no substitue for +hit. This for rogues/fury warriors/dualwielding shammies in PVE.

In PVP +hit doesn't matter so much as most damage is from big bursts from special attacks.

This is an IMBA PVE cloak for any dual wielding class, end of story.

As others have said above, the magical number for non dual wielding is +8.6% hit for raiding. If for example you're a hunter and your hit rating is not maxed out at +8.6%, focus on +hit over other stats in general since every +hit% translates more or less to +damage%. This is because in terms of Blizz's itemization (i.e. the way they allocate stats on items), if you find two items that are both equal power then the one with +hit will end up giving you more DPS.

    +1 % hit = +1 % dps
    
    - up until you hit the cap - 18 %
    
    Dualwielders:
    +18 % needed for main hand
    +24 % needed for off hand
    
    - Off hand does less damage than main hand. Which means that from 18 % on, you won't be getting the full +1 % dps for every +1 % hit.
    
    But:
    - Rogues have up to +50 % off hand damage from talents.
    - Warriors have up to +25 % off hand damage from talents.
    - Shamans don't have this talent.
    
    Basically, +hit is the best way to increase your dps until you hit the cap.
    
    There's a reason why you see some pro rogues with 2-300 hit rating or more, if they can get their hands on more. That, in addition to maxing out their +hit talents of course. +hit for the win.
