Live has way higher skillcaps than even this change did. That's why you are seeing those kind of numbers. I think the cap on 2HS was something like 280 for most classes in Kunark? Plus they have an innate AA that is autotrained for melee / hybrids on live that increases white damage by 45%.

As for the reason why P99 has so many more misses, that can be chalked up to the fact that P99 doesn't use era-specific combat formulas. I believe Rogean tuned the mob stats to produce era-like results, but did not actually implement the proper formula.
