Dodging Dodgers Dodge Best
#1
The dodge formula, especially Protection from Arrows, seems horribly fubar'd.

Parameters

Attacker
59 Skill
57 Luck
Rank 5 Marksmanship
Rank 4 Snipe
Rank 5 Dynamic Shooting
Bow Accuracy 91%
Katana Accuracy 108%

Dodger
85 Celerity
46 Luck
Agile Feet
Rank 5 Protection from Arrows
Rank 5 Unarmored Prowess
28 Evade Armor


Calculated Hit with each weapon

Bow: 278
Katana: 254

Calculated Dodge against each weapon

Bow: 310
Katana: 270

In practice, however, this is not the case.

When up against the bow this is the forecast.

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: -8%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

And the Katana?

Perky Redtail Girl: Fluffles's Blade (23 Power)
Hit: -16%
Dmg: 49
Crit: 19%

Something is fishy with this and I can't figure out what. I know, for a fact, that Protection from Arrows is busted, however.

Protection from Arrows, in this preview is only giving +16 of the +40 it is supposed to provide.

I think the problem is that stacking evade and cel, is ALOT easier than stacking hit and skill.

This is a bug report, Lolzy.

clicked from the front page, also I don't think this is a bug. as you havent tested the dodge without ma bonus. and then with unarmed only, then with both.

Aside from someone .really. not reading the topic or the math that I put the time into actually doing....

Sure Lolzy, I'll test Protection from Arrows being bugged while unarmed.

[/sarcasm]

On a real note, I'll go test with Protection from Arrows at rank 1-5 for Lolzy's "This isn't a bug" claim even though it clearly is because I'm not getting the whole +40

New test: Using no innates/passives, we test to see what dodge is like up to the point of ranking up Protection from Arrows.

Calculated Dodge of Defender

Test 1: Katana Vs Bow, no Protection from Arrows

Perky Redtail Girl: Fluffles's Blade (23 Power)
Hit: 14%
Dmg: 49
Crit: 19%

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 38%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

Success: Hit lines up properly!

Test 2: Katana Vs Bow, Rank 1 Protection from Arrows

Perky Redtail Girl: Fluffles's Blade (23 Power)
Hit: 14%
Dmg: 49
Crit: 19%

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 30%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

Success They line up at rank 1 properly.

Here on out, I'll be dropping the Katana question, since it lines up as per usual.

Test 3: Bow vs Rank 2 Protection from Arrows

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 28%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

FAILURE It only reduced the hit by 2 points. TWO!

Test 4: Bow vs Rank 3 Protection from Arrows

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 26%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

FAILURE I think I'm starting to see a pattern...

Test 5: Bow vs Rank 4 Protection from Arrows

Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 24%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

FAILURE

Test 6: Bow vs Rank 5 Protection from Arrows

[8:36:58 AM] John Ferella: Perky Redtail Girl: Sharp Stuff Shooter (28 Power)
Hit: 22%
Dmg: 74
Crit: 63%

MASSIVE FAILURE

So yeah, Protection from Arrows, instead of giving the +40 it says it gives at +8/+8/+8/+8/+8, it gives +8/+2/+2/+2/+2
