Nerfed, that just shows that a ranger melee skill pwns a clerics which should be the case......
Someone who can should go up against another of the same class who is naked using same weapon vs you being armored and having higher ac. That would be a very good test.
Like you 50 cleric, enamled black mace 700 ac vs a 50 cleric, same weapon, naked with super low ac.

The goal of that log was to see if AC and ATK were having a noticeable impact damage output, not to actually figure out what the gains were (hence the small sample). All that it needs to show is that the ranger (or rogue or warrior in the other logs) were getting an increase in damage output from large differences in AC and ATK.
The big thing that I am noticing is that AC and ATK is pretty constant among players (probably due to wearing a bunch of resist gear). I do not remember a whole hell of a lot about AC and ATK numbers from back then. Was this the case and if it was, did the weapon/defensive skills seperate melee classes from casters or was there an underline mechanic in place that made sure melees hit harder than casters?
I guess what I am asking is IF a melee and a caster had the same stats, weapon and skills, would the melee still hit on average harder than the caster?
