Ok, np

There is a lot of evades in the screens, yes. But it seems luck to me, I never saw Valour evade that much.

I could also get a +5 evasion tunic instead of a +4 one and + dex staff, gloves and hat ^^

This is rich, a hunter moaning about a mages evasion (i say moaning due to the title of the thread)

Yeah, when i'm under the effect of confuse, the four spells that I can cast are always resisted/evaded

Even if they're a low level hunter or marksman *baah*

[CumeriTarenes]

my lvl 50 marksman have base evasion of 61 :/

And INT 50 which means base spell resistence is quite low too.

With passives I can boost up my evasion to 73, but for this I have to max out evasion and short bows and I have to spent 8 powerpoints for it.

with all my items and maneuver lvl 5 I can boost up to 89 evasion. When you then add dodge you will evade about 50% of all hits/spells I guess.

then wits (+15int) and some +int items and high lvl spell eude make you resist about 45% of all spells I guess.

So when you cast a spell on the archer you have to break trough 25% evade layer from dodge, then trough 25% normal (boosted) evade layer, then trough 30% spell elude resist layer and then trough 15% normal (boosted) resist layer.

That's why archers are able to evade/resist so much. When you then add a protection dome and a deflecting barrier it get's almost impossible to get a hit on an archer. Dunno if this is what we want. I saw fort fights against syrtis, who have many knights and many archers, where I made not a single hit, and if it was 0 dmg because of mana pylon/energybarrier. For ranged classes these frustrating evades/resists are even worse than for warriors due to deflecting barrier. And for mages they are worst, because they suffer more from it than archers because they themself don't profit not so much due to lower evasion chance than archers.
