I found this too, from 2000. http://www.castle-grounds.co.uk/eq/warriorfaq.htm#7

"DEX: how quickly you learn weapon skills; how often weapon will proc; how quickly you learn rogue skills; how hard you hit with bows (per Abashi, dex also increases the chance of critical hits)"

It looks like we have enough info now!! They should do an emergency hot-patch to fix it!!!! This is probably the most top priority bug ever to have ever been found in ever.

Nice find, but GL with that emergency hot patch. I hope it does get fixed soon. Gives me a reason to make a ranger as it seems they are getting closer to being completely usable.

This is top notch stop the press stuff but everyone knows the servers top priority and most debilitating bug atm is knight defense skill caps.

No, no, no. Knights are intentionally on the wrong hit table and intentionally have the wrong defensive skill caps.

It's a feature.

Hope this helps.
