Game Mechanics: MELEE PROBLEMS (Mob hit rate, # max hits, etc etc)

I played a warrior since Classic for about 7 years. I rarely had groups so I was constantly soloing things. I can remember on at least two occasions petitioning a GM to ask if there was something wrong with me based on how often I missed. He'd ask a few questions, check my stats and gear, and then chalk it up to "bad luck".

I can remember constantly getting into those gritty, anxious miss/miss nose to the grindstone battles where myself and a mob are at 2% health and whoever gets the next hit wins.

I think that there was something wrong, but now that they've tweaked it I feel things are much better and the way they should be. Lo and behold, I've also gained a few levels and gear improvements since then which have only bolstered how I currently feel.

I think things are okay now, and I play a melee character exclusively. Flame away if you want, it's just how I feel.

Hit rate isn't a problem. Not any more at least. The problem is oncoming damage from mobs...
