Well, all the testing was done by rogues, so, yeah, it was all dual wielders. It would be interesting to have a single-wielder run some tests to see if the same thing applies.
If you want to read the full analysis, swing by the rogue dps thread (
Rogue DPS Spreadsheet) and check out the posts in the late 800s and 900s.... post 972 has a reasonable summary of the specifics. The short version is:
The only model we came up with that accurately reflects all data we took was that hit rating gives the usual 1% hit for every 15.77 hit rating; weapon skill gives .1% hit; and the base miss chance against a level 73 mob is 25.5% (versus 24% for a level 70).
The recommended methodology for single wield would be to test at a range of hit ratings and pinpoint when you stop missing (which will take a couple thousand swings to determine for certain), and use that to reverse engineer what the base miss chance is.
