You are trying to say the differance between a lvl 12 vs 5 and a lvl 50 vs 43 is the same when it is not. Just b/c the differences in skill points between these mobs are the same you will not get the same results b/c the skill points are much higher on the higher lvl mobs. Its not so much that there is a difference of 35 points between the PCs atk skill and the mobs def skill, its more about having higher skill lvl.

I dont know how else to tell ya that at low lvls your char sucks and as you lvl you get more badass. Thats how it goes.

Well, whats broken really is the way hits and misses are calculated. Eh, not broken, just not right. Obviously somethings working to cacluate em, its just not accurate to the original EQ method. Because at level 50, he should still be missing occasionally against mobs that are around his level. Or even a little below. Remember, he's attacking something with a defense thats much closer to his attack skill than mine.

I never said it didnt suck and that you dont get more badass as you level, If you read what I had to say properly, it could easily be assumed that you would, because you'd have an easier and easier time killing things that were one, then two, then five levels below you.
