Connecting 2-3% too much. AC affects damage dealt and frequency of max hits....it also does/can affect hit rate. A miss is not always a miss, sometimes it is a hit that glances off your armor. I could also be a thousand miles off the mark, but I discovered the AC "problem" while working in Sky. It was definitely evident. And by it being so out of whack, a lot of mobs were literally loot pinatas offering virtually no challenge, strikingly similar to now but surprisingly worse.

Hopefully, I'll be able to get the raid combat stuff tweaked around eventually to rectify that.
