When discussing the MP ability to land hits and perks and MP AAD - we should probably also take into account, that we will have an AAD/AAO debuff available as a pet proc. Max value is -200 AAD and -150 AAO.
Now obviously, there is a leap of faith for MPs involved here. FC have said that pets will be able to hit well in PvP - and they're making changes to reduce kiting etc.... but as MPs we have some scepticism about this, I'd imagine. But let's assume, for a moment, that they do achieve their goals - and that the pets really do perform well in the PvP environment.
That would mean that against a given target, you'd effectively have +200 AAO and +150 AAD from the proc.
Just saying, is all. Not jumping up and down and singing hallelujas, because the premise of the pets hitting effectively in PvP play hasn't happened yet. But assuming FC achieve what they want to... that proc alone may be a serious aid to the AR/AAD issues being raised here.
