Hi Guys,
So I have been looking through this forum as everyone else has to see how this change impacts our dps as melee players and a little light bulb went off in my head when I saw
there are two formulas to calculate miss rate.

I know this is against some forums rules but this is some speculation.
When it takes two formulas to explain a response (miss rate, parry rate, etc) this is usually a sign that there is some level of interaction between causes and it looks like this might be occurring. Has anyone done any type of analysis to see if hit rating and expertise rating are independent? I would highly suspect that there is some interaction between these two things.
I am including a link in wikipedia explaining what an interaction is

Interaction (statistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If someone has a good reference data set that I can be pointed to that has varying combinations of hit rating and expertise rating on the same mob maybe I can do some analysis and see if this is true.

I am hoping we have some stats gurus wandering these forums that can correct any of my mistakes.

Thanks for not kicking me out of the forums….
