Hai-ho! The name's essence.
I like story writing, so my specialism in creating RPGs is the storyline. My back line specialties are on average; Graphic Design, Sprite Editing / Refurbishing, Mapping and Animation.

Notable differences between VX and VX Ace
author=LegendaryCreatorauthor=EssencebladeIs there a reason for this or?
VX Ace is the only engine that made me consider moving from 2k3. And look, it has. :D
As ShortStar explained, it was probably the closest maker to 2k3. XP and VX didn't have the same "feel" and "liking" like VXa and 2k3.
I mean, sure it's a bit different, of course, but it hosts a wider variety of things that you couldn't do in 2k3. You probably could, but it would take pages and pages and pages and pages and pages and pages and pages of coding.
One of the things that kept making me "consider VX Ace" is a lot of the new features people kept repeating. Like custom damage formulas based off stats other than Atk Def and Magic(!). Scripts of course, I'm saying scripts because I went from 2k3 to VXa, not from XP/VX > VXa. Scripts in Ace are just... :D I know it may come in the norm for people who have used scripts since XP+ but you get my drift.
The mapping system in Ace is seeeeeeeeexxxxxxxxy. this is another thing that made me jump from 2k3 > Ace. The mapping system in Ace is the best thing since XP, but I didn't like XP for many reasons, though it is still a nice maker. Ace has a kind of "mix and match" system which just practically made me fall in love with it.
Though the eventing is not as powerful as it is in 2k3, 'nothing a few scripts which enables bigger conditional branches and stuff won't fix.
And from the "commercial" side. It's the latest maker, and it's definitely the most improved one.
So, RMN, what do you guys like to eat for snacks?
Speakin' o' th' Doritos, I Jus' ate more Doritos. An' cheesecake.
I want to try Kool-aid and Cheetoes, but they don't have them here in the UK!
Woe is me~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!

The worst is when people use 16-bit sprites with the default RMVX tilesets, or vice versa. Ugg ghhhh.
If you were referring to me, the tile set is just an example.
I know, and I don't plan to mix VX with 16 bit graphics. I've just been reformatting the 2k3 tile sets but I'm trying to get the auto tiles right. I can't say its easy but I'm doing well so far.
Edit:
@LockeZ: Good advice. I'm trying to convert one of my 16 bit windows from 2k3 to Vx format at the moment.

Indeed, those are nice looking, but I want to keep my 2k3 graphics because they literally have more graphics than VX(a) does for that style. Plus I'm literally migrating my 2k3 graphics to Ace. :D
I've already got that set downloaded + a few custom edits already, because I plan to use it for Volume 2 of my project.

That's your problem right there. Atk times +1means, you will always do (x) + 1 attacks. So you will always attack for an amount of times, and then that trait would add one more attack.
You have 2 claws which means they probably don't stack on top of each other if you have two +1 attack traits.
You're dual-wielding claws, which means you're attacking 2 times, + 1 time more because of the trait. By the looks of it. You either have clashing "Attack times +1" traits on weapons, or you have one claw with the Atk times +1, and one without, thus meaning you will attack twice + 1.

xD, I find balancing battles in Ace amazing, but the various new scripts they have allow me to pretty much dissect the whole battle system in question which in turn makes me go through every possibility, thus I brain-lock myself.
If you'd gone through nearly everything possible, the only advice I could give you is to start a clean project and convert your things over one by one. I mean, if you haven't even added a single script yet, or even touched one for that matter, maybe RPG Maker is just acting up. Or you may be over-looking something minor like a battle event or something like that.

An Official *English* Version of 2k3 Approaches!
You mean the DS version of RPG Maker? I haven't really tested it, but... chances are, if you have a 3DS, you have a computer or laptop. I'm not saying it's not worth the money, but I'd much rather just spend £60 on a maker which I can customize to almost 100%. I'm pretty sure that because it is on DS, there will be more limitations. Though the DS version is still okay, such a recommendation isn't really needed on this topic. Start a new topic or something.
