President, I hate to point this out to you, but you missed a whopping 0 times in there.. out of 103 attacks, only 19 did full damage (under the assumption your full dmg is 29/hit and 18/kick). Thats normal for live, because the mob is 7 levels below you. The point is, you too are fighting a light blue mob, and have an exeptionally high hit rate. Yes, you can TRY and claim there's is a skill difference between a level 12 and a level 50, but the reality is that your skills still exceede the sand giants defensive skills by a mere 30-35 points... (Assuming your 6-7 levels higher) YES, You ABSOLOUTLY, should still be missing occasionally. You should be missing the same amount that I am. You arent... Face it, Combat is not right yet. At this point its looking like the game is going off of the attack skills of the player alone, rather than the attack skills of the player, minus the defenses of the mob which it did in live.

As to your claim that every player would be flooding the forums with complaints? No, not really, a fair number of them probably still feel like a forum is too big a maze to navigate.. Face it, you've probably got 50 people in the whole system out of what, 750-1000 now? that contribute to 90% of the forum content. I highly doubt every untwinked noob with a keyboard would end up here complaining.

Omnimorph, Thats exactly my point, at level 47, with decent skill in 1h bash, you should not be missing, you wouldnt have on live. Well, once maybe, but it shouldnt take 3-4 swings to kill a level 1 mob at level 47.. How would you feel if that level 1, with a larger number of hps was still able to melee you to death if you didnt use any magic at your current level?

Dali, 1. its not an issue of 1h weapons vs 2h weapons, I've tried it with both, and im still getting obscene miss rates with 1h weapons. 2. please keep this to the topic. 3. This is NOT on par with classical EQ, because on classical EQ, I was able to solo into my 20's. 4. This isnt wow, please dont try to compare the two as the combat systems are completely different.
