Or, to say it another way: if you do 20 attacks and usually hit on 10 of them, a +1 will make you hit 10+10% = 11 times.Since 4e is balanced around you hitting about 50% of the time, thinking of +1 to hit as a +10% damage bonus is quite accurate.That +1 will also increase your damage by one (you do your primary stat to damage 90% of the time). For a cleric it will typically be 1d8+3 or 1d8+4 with 18 instead of 16.1d8+3 * 50% = 3,75 dmg1d8+4 * 55% = 4,675 dmg, or 24,67% more damage per hit.Going from 16 to 18 in your main stat does a LOT! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
