Hybrids have an innately higher chance to miss for a given offense/weapon skill level than pure melees do. This was one of the things changed during the Velious era; I forget exactly when offhand but think it was later in the expansion, October '01 or therabout, that they were put on the same combat table as Warriors. I don't know how well that is or isn't implemented on P1999, since melee has never been quite the same here as Live, but in theory things should get better after Velious has been out awhile.
