It just seems like with all the logs I see ( and to a lesser extent, personal experience), most all of the input skills get maelbility dodged or evaded.

1) I'm sorry, but even arial transmuter (not at all a common choice) with all the edges and beneficial effects possible in the game can't get to 50%, by a comfortable margin. That's assuming you haven't gone after their DEX at all. Evade in particular isn't very impressive on a class that lacks the skill.

2) Where are all these dominant transmuters? I can locate one with more than a couple dozen kills. I can do that for most any class, so that doesn't strike me as important.

When you only have 1 or 2 chances to -str a transmuter into dropping his staff (since they have spiderhands) before you get neuro'd into helplessness...

3) If you're getting frozen, save vs. paralysis is the answer. It may mean sacrificing damage or other bonuses.
