There have to be more variables than that though. It should not be doing 14dps to 2 separate level 60 shamans with one shaman having 103 raw ac and be swinging a 2 hander (ripostes) and the other having 187 raw ac and not attacking while using a shield.

Unless ripostes do not exist (they do) and all our assumptions about ac (raw vs shield) are entirely .. it is not possible.

Unless there was insufficient data from either of us to draw any meaningful conclusion.

I agree our data size could simply be too small.

As for the 80 AC difference, that honestly does depend on the fight. I need to look at the EQEMU formula again to see how much of a difference that could make. AC basically weights the dice to roll more or less max damage rolls than a pure averaged dice roll.

If you look at this post, you will see the Giants rolled on the upper half of the damage table twice as often as they rolled on the lower half. So my lower AC did indeed impact how much damage I took. You should take a look at your damage values and see how many went on the lower/upper table. If it's roughly the same, then I guess 80 worn AC just doesn't shift the weights that much in this specific fight.

You basically just need to count how many damage values you got that were using the first ten values of the damage table vs. how many damage values you got that were using the last ten values of the damage table.
