The miss check is called in exactly four places in the code, and all four are auto attacks: a normal strike, a bow shot, and two dual wield throws.

Skills don't miss at all. Neither physical nor magical—they have their own math: debuffs have a chance to apply, dagger strikes have a chance to trigger, but there's no such thing as "missing." Damage from a skill always happens, if the skill is used at all.

Dual wielding weapons roll the dice twice. —separately for each of the two strikes, and they are independent. Therefore, a "half-miss" with double-wielding weapons seems normal, but with one-handed weapons this does not happen.

All things being equal, this is 88%Each unit of difference is worth 2%The result is constrained within the boundaries of 28% until 98%: it is impossible to completely dodge, as well as to hit accurately.

The boundaries are converging faster than it seems. Already five units the benefits are definitely pushing you up against the ceiling, and thirty units of lag - to the floor. Anything gained beyond this is wasted.

Accuracy and evasion are considered the same formula - this is not a typo, they are indeed constructed the same way:

Plus bonuses for higher levels: +1 for each level above 69, +2 after 77, +1 after 80, and +1 after 85. No class has its own bonus—the starting difference between characters comes solely from Dexterity.

Because of the root the return on agility is diminishingFive points from 20 to 25 yield 3,2 units, while the same five from 55 to 60 yield only 2,0. Investing in agility is more beneficial for those with low agility to begin with.

The level is included in the formula directly, unit by unit. This means Each level of difference between you and the enemy increases your chance of hitting by 2%. - in both directions.

A five-level difference is already a 10% hit rate, and a fifteen-level difference is a 30% hit rate. This is why monsters much taller than you are are constantly missed, and no buffs can compensate: a four-level bonus pales in comparison to the level gap.

This is almost never written about, but it weighs more than anything else. The accuracy is specified in the item itself., and it varies for different types of weapons:

The gap between the club and the dagger is 8,5 units, that is, 17% of hitsFor comparison, the best accuracy buff gives 4 units, and the Hawk Eye skill gives 10, and only for a short time.

This has practical implications. Daggers, archers, and spearmen initially miss more often than others—they need accuracy more. But the club, all other stats being equal, almost always hits: it has a +4,75 bonus simply for its type.

Any shield in the game takes away 8 units of evasion — This increases the opponent's chance to hit you by 16%. In exchange, a block is applied. The tradeoff is deliberate: the shield turns some missed attacks into blocked ones.

Some combat buffs are paid for by accuracy or evasion—something people forget when they're just loading up on everything:

A separate tactic is not to increase your evasion, but to destroy someone else's accuracy:

Skills like Mortal Strike have their own trigger formula, and Dodging the target is not included in it at allThe chance is determined by your weapon's criticality, your agility bonus, the altitude adjustment, and the base chance of the skill itself.

But the situation decides. For skills marked "from behind," the chance from behind becomes exactly 100%, on the side - 50%No amount of target agility will change that.

Regular dodge is useless against skills, but there is a separate stat—dodge against physical skills. The check is ongoing. after after the damage has already been calculated: if it passes, the damage is completely reset and both sides see a miss message.

It only works against physical abilities and only when the damage dealt is greater than one. There's no magical equivalent at all.

The game files contain bonuses to hitting based on the environment:

The problem is that when calculating the chance of hitting, these percentages are divided by 100, and the contribution drops to hundredths of a percent. In practice, the bonuses don't work: hitting someone in the back is useless.

In this case, in damage calculation the same values ​​are applied correctlyThat is, going behind someone's back is still beneficial, but for a different reason—damage, not accuracy.
