Game Mechanics: AC/Level Mitigation & Backstabs

[Arkyani]

None of my parses were using disciplines. As for weapons, I use Crystalline Spear for backstab, although I have a SCD for regular melee attack. My parses are with spear. Also I have 255 strength, without wolf form my attack is about 1162 (not exact because not in game atm, but its just over 1200 with shared wolf form)

And yes, the problem is only with backstab. It was broken at the same exact time that the pet minimum damage bug occurred, and was supposed to be fixed in the same patch (rogean broadcasted that both bugs were fixed pending update in game) but the backstab fix never occurred.

The ONLY thing broken with backstab is the fact that it hits for minimum damage MUCH too often. The max and min damage is fine, the magic number for damage is fine. Its just getting minimum damage backstabs as often as the parses show is very wrong.

We've provided plenty of evidence that minimum backstabs occur way too often. Hell, just scroll back a few pages and look at the parses. Anybody who plays a rogue right now knows backstab is messed up. There has been plenty of pages in this thread related to the actual discussion of this bug (granted some was off topic, most isn't).
