A few weeks back, a conversation occurred where a member said that they travel around without being hit. They have a parry modifier at 300. Over the course of a few days, others claim to have the same experience. They stroll in PR and no problemo. I called BS.
I looked at my dodge which, at the time, was around 220. I wasn't a master of ele yet. I immediately started on a mission to obtain that 300. So I mastered ele to bring me up to 250. I crafted a set of +2 dodge light armor, a +20 buckler, and +20 dagger. Voila, 300.
Immediately went out to test. And surprisingly to me, it appeared that I was dodging less at 300 than I experienced with merely 260 (innate + armor).
I brought this up in uni and a private conversation followed how it would be cool to test this. After many hours of xmas box hunting, I decided to get started.
Test conditions are:
Obtain ~1000 attacks
Repeat under different dodge mod conditions:
naked (250 dodge)
+armor (260 dodge)
+buckler (280 dodge)
+dagger (300 dodge)
Tertiary conditions:
vs 1 mob
*facing me immobile
*behind me immobile
*while mobile
vs 6 mobs
*facing me immobile
*behind me immobile
*while mobile
I went to silan and picked the suckling yubo. I will move up to higher level mobs and aggressive as well. My alt will be nearby to rez so I can continue the test. I will likely need to craft some non-dodge and non-parry bonus armor for the higher levels so I may take a few extra hits before dying. We'll see how this goes. Or, I may limit it to 100 samples at high levels in the interest of time. The larger the sample space, the better picture obtained. If I were to base conclusions off the first ten attacks, I would think the lvl1 yubo has a 50% accuracy against me.
I enabled logging and imported the data into a spreadsheet. I removed all chat and unrelated messages. The raw data is pasted here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BVcQxBW58C/
I didn't manage to get a thousand attacks, but it's close enough in my opinion.
With 250 dodge and versus a lvl1 non-aggro mob, I initiated the fight with a taunt. It hit me immediately. These mobs must have a massive to-hit bonus. The yubo conducted critical hits which gave it three attacks.
Test 0 (facing me immobile vs 1):
883 offensive attacks
315 hits (35.8%)
495 dodge (56%)
032 misses [my defense doesn't equate but] (3.6%)
030 critical hits (3.4%) of which:
**7 slow movement
**8 stamina reductions
**6 -20 dodge de-buff (avg 55% attack accuracy)
**9 -20 parry de-buff (avg 55% attack accuracy)
I have data to sort for the other tertiary tests. I will follow this with the remainder after I wake up. With two-hundred-fifty innate dodge, I was surprised to see six mere points above majority in success. I predicted eighty percent dodge. I now expect a negative logarithmic trend after all tests are complete.
