Are you using a 1hander or a 2hander?
I noticed the miss rate was exceptionally higher when I was trying to use my fists instead of a twohanded staff. The difference was so incredible that I was actually doing better DPS with a Treant staff with about 10 ranks in 2handed blunt weapons than I was with maxed hand-hand at level 11. I notice the miss rate for DW weapons is incredibly high - even on live, I used a Tranquil staff over epic-quality fists because 1) I always did better with a powerhouse twohander than with my fists or two good one-hand weapons, 2) the 15 or so second auto-Riposte-every-attack discipline worked incredibly well with a tranquil staff, and 3) the Tranquil staff rocked face.
