I'm somewhat 100% convinced wep skill does affect your melee damage/hits. I bought the boa axe for my 4 paladin with an axe skill of 1 and they hardly did any melee damage. Leveled the axe skill up and the damage was what it should be. Don't got any numbers.

Raising defense: masspull a lowlvl instance and keep yourself alive untill you hit your max defense level. I just pulled half Deadmines on my ally shaman. Main took most of the aggro, healed with slave2. He got aggro, because of the healing and he got skillups. Cycling through the characters you can adjust their aggro by spamhealing. Takes a couple of mins once you're inside the instance.

To lvl wep skill i suggest to just farm some mobs that are at your level and bring a healer along if needed. (depends on the skill, if it's ridiculously low, then that's helpfull.
