You would be expected to hit about 10% less or so than your peers, but I'm assuming that you have much better defense scores? They've specialized heavily in one stat, you're playing a more generalist. 4e combat favours specialists over jack of all trades. Ideally you'd like to have 16 in your main stat before racial modifiers. You also usually try and pick a race that will complement your class to bump your main stat. You don't have to of course, from an RP POV you might prefer a halfing cleric, but you won't be as effective as a fully specialized dragonborn melee cleric, or twinked out elven lazer cleric.</blockquote>
