OK, so I got around to analyzing the hits for a proper hit distribution. It was really bugging me because I was using this formula:
Quote:
[MIN Base]+[DI]*(1 thru 20) = Hit Values
Which is pretty well known, but I think it was missing some tweaks as I was getting a lot of rounding errors based on what I was seeing. I think I have that figured out. Here is the formula that matches exactly (using excel formulas here):
Quote:
=ROUNDUP([MIN Base]+ ROUND([DI],1)*[1 thru 20],0)
(Note: would need more data to confirm specifics of above, may have been truncating the DI)

For starters, here is the hit distribution for both mage pet and mist panther:
Quote:
mage_epic_pet_hits(21,24,26,29,31,33,36,38,41,43,4 5,48,50,53,55,57,60,62,65,67)
Quote:
mist_panther_hits(5,8,11,14,17,20,23,26,29,32,35,3 8,41,44,47,50,53,56,59,62)
While I did not use a formula for the below, here are the bash/kick values (bash/kick combined for epic pet, values seemed equal). Not sure if there are supposed to be a 20 hit distribution or less, needed more data to figure out:
Quote:
mage_epic_pet_bash_kick(20,21,22,23,27,28,29,30,31 )
Quote:
mist_panther_kick(50,58)
Hope this helps!

P.S. I know not much about "magic number" values and atk vs ac specifics, so didn't care to list that.
@Telin, was parsed from log in the OP

Edit: Doh, you said normal mage pets. Sorry. I think I have some logs tucked away somewhere, but hard to know what level the pet was.
