No the few times I got hit were when early in the fight they both missed
several times in a row and I did not. I can do max 28 points if both
weapons hit. The Sk can do 44 with one hit at max. His delay is twice
mine, but I don't dual wield every round and he double attacks about 80% as
often as I dual wield.

I will parse the numbers if I can get them back together. Will have to find
another SK though he is 3 levels higher than me now which would skew it too
much.

I'm assuming you're attributing the occasional ability to outdamage someone
with a higher percentage on the randomness of the RNG. Is that correct?

This seems to support your reasoning above, if I understood it correctly.
It sounds like there were occassions where you outdamaged them, despite
their higher melee ability.

>In many fights I never outdamaged them and took not one attack.

And this makes sense, since samples over time negate the random factor. If
you're only 80% as effective, over time, you expect the mob to stay on him.
