So, evade. I generally hate evade, FWIW. I was playing Hunsobo when evade was implemented. Pre-evade, as a Greeting sword spec with nodisarm swords, strange bracers, etched dragonscale pendants, and imperial tactics, I was tough to beat (or survive) if I could bash you.

Post-evade? People actually had a chance to get away sometimes. It SUCKED!

Until my next char, an elf dagger spec.


I digress. This post is to share some actual information about Evade.

First off, the BEST chance you can really ever have to evade something is probably about 12%. That's with full-on edges, perfected evade, 25 dex, and everything going exactly right.

Secondly, as it stands right now, evade cares quite a bit more about your dexterity than your evade skill. For instance, an arial invoker (a class without the evade skill at all) has a better chance to evade than a giant warrior with 100% evade.
