now that im getting into PVP I noticed a lot of people have a ton of DCI. does anyone know what to do? im getting as much hit chance and hit lower defense, but this is crazy.

It is capped at 45% Hit Chance Increase when used in PVP.

no, lets say you have on character with 90 HCI and another with 45 DCI
the 90 HCI will take away the 45 DCI and still have the cap of 45 HCI
and vice versa

You only need 70% Hit/Defense Chance Increase to counter the negative ones, as they reduce you by 35%.

I don't fully understand can you explain?
are you saying that in all totality of being able to hit someone with every shot, that you just need 70 HCI?
or if not would you tell me what all it takes to hit 100% of the time?
like against the best player there can be with hitting and missing

i had:
spirit of the totem
leggings of bane
despicable quiver
mana phasing orb 5% HCI
and
13 HCI - ring
13 HCI -bracelet
25 HCI - bow
50% hit lower defense - bow

which equals 96 HCI

and i was still missing more than half the time

so i guess they are probably cheating?

not to mention I was using lightning strike in some of these attempts to be able to hit them

ok, I just tested HCI vs DCI on the test shard
my HCI guy has 108 HCI
the DCI guy has 124 DCI

and im missing alot

If everything is equal, you end up with a 50% chance to hit, whether you each have maximum HCI/DCI or no equipment and matching weapon/defense skills.

really? is there a way to make it 100%?

It is probably impossible to reach 100%. But if your opponent is an unarmed elf with 0 wrestling/anatomy/eval_int and you have 120 weapon skill, 45% hit chance increase and a weapon with hit lower defense, your chance to hit would be 95% or higher.
