Now THAT is an interesting development. I usually end up with 1141 to 1200 ATK on my Ranger and I still hit for beans on Sky mobs (granted, this is expected, and I still pull decent DPS but it never gets close to a raid buffed monk or rogue when they aren't using a disc), but can actually kill a mob in KC without missing once at level 57. ATK may not be the key problem, but that's why that information is important. How much are the ATK values off by? Are they off in multiples/increments? Could unlisted STR above 255 account for these differences?
It seemed completely random. The spread was about 30-35 points of attack for the range. The only buff differences i'm aware of were shrunken gob ear which I didn't have, but I was still the second highest rogue in attack, higher than another level 60 with the earring buff on. I will force a more thorough test after our next raid and document unbuffed/buffed STR, etc.

Also, Wiz, quit being a jerk. Their test server is/was moving locations.
