I was surprised to find that the to-hit % from the formula provided by arret summits is off by 1-3% (depending on which items I plug in) with all the rounding of the attack rate percentes in your formulas. Good to know. One BIG thing the arret summit fails to mention is the To Hit Factor for the different classes! I'd have to say this made quit a difference to the end result of about 2%. Overall, the simplistic arret summit formula works fine for pvm if you don't mind loosing 2-5% in your computations, but if you want a more exacting formula, use Tommi's sheet :D

Feel free to comment upon the page. I've got these formulas from experience, reading posts and testing a bit around with the lying character screen. So, if you spot errors there, please tell me and I'll correct them.
Cheers,

Thanks again for the help!
