Thread: Dodge..Plz Read Almighty Pistoleers
Does anyone know how Dodge is "meant" to work?
If I have a+20 to Dodge is that the same as a +20 to Ranged and Melee Defense thus lowering your enemies accuracy by 20.
That would explain why Dodge seems to worksbetter against npcs that don't use special moves. Cuz we all know special moves give pluses to accuracy.
If this is nothow Dodge worksplease explain to me what ya know.. and thanks in advance for any helpful answers : )
Over the weekend I dropped that whole line(had BS 3 hoping that it would finally be worthwhile) I found while running I would start dodgeing stuff, basicly stopping and setting to the side. This totally slowwed me down and was worthless to escape.
It seemed to work at a fairly random change, both against mobs and humanoid NPCs, both range and melee attacks. I would guess that it is appied for each attack and is a base chance to advoide the attack, had it fairly frequently against CL 35+ mobs so I am not sure if thier is a hidden number based on level.
We tested dodge a week or two ago and it only worked like 4% of the time as a Master against low level opponents. It may have been increased since then a bit.
As you've noticed, dodge sucks when you're on the move because it brings you to a stop.
