On Red server Dexterity affects PVP hit rate. It does this by comparing your dexterity to your opponent's agility.
Brad had a vision of how everquest design should go, that doesn’t mean his coders implemented every detail exactly as Brad foresaw it. I’d take what Brad (rip) said with a pinch of salt as he had a grand vision for what eq should be and in his descriptions of the game he seemed to try to maintain that air of mystique.
