This is just a random list of corrections to some things I've heard people say. Feel free to add.
Agility does not effect your chance to hit your enemy. Agility effects your chance to land a critical hit with weapons, your chance to dodge, and slightly increases your armor. If you want to hit more often you need to max out your weapon skill and not fight enemies of a much higher level than you. Racial traits that boost a weapon skill also increase your chance to hit.
Intelligence does not effect your chance at getting a skill up from tradeskills. Intelligence does effect the amount of swings required to raise your weapon skill.
All abilities and spells have the same chance of being resisted or missing. Any time anyone complains about a skill by saying "It's resisted a lot", they're full of crap. All abilities have the same chance of landing, though melee attacks also have to pass the dodge/parry/block checks, and spells have to pass the resistances checks. The exception to this is talents that reduce your enemy's chance of resisting, or increase your chance to hit.
