Cheerio,

Trying to put this as nice as I can, all observations I've seen have basically said Crezax is full of it.
For a equal level mob, nothing besides glancing blows has changed since 1.0. That is, for melee, 1 weapon skill = +0.04% Crit, -0.04% Miss/Dodge/Parry/Block. For specials, hit scales differently (because glancing blows don't exist for specials) so it's -0.24% miss per point. For a +3 mob, the best results I've seen so far are showing an additional +0.1% crit per weapon skill.
With +4 weapon skill, that would mean melee has a +0.88% increase (unless the mob blocks, and DPS lost to blocks is hard to measure) and specials have a +1.44% increase because you shouldn't be attacking from the front to begin with.
His parry numbers are off, his decimals are off, and people shouldn't be experiencing parry anyway. Barring some definitive data saying otherwise, his miss numbers are most likely off too.
Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
