Only other thing I can think of is if your fighting where the monsters are alot higher clvl than you are. For example, you mentioned you were lvl 33 and if you were fighting doom knights in act 4 nightmare mode (they are lvl 49) you would have trouble hitting them. The char screen says you have an AR of so much and a 92% chance of hitting....but that's a monster of the same clvl as you are which in this case a lvl 33 monster. Where are you currently questing?
