Can't tell so precisely but it's something like that. Of course, each weapons has it's pros and cons, low/high hit rate, low/high crits rate, low/high crits dmg, and etc but all in all, it's all a matter of how you build your character.

And yes, 2 characters with similar stats should give very close fights if they use similar weapons and armors, if they have the good stats for their respective weapons.

Maybe you just need a little more you forgot to get even with them?
