Evading an attack prevents all damage and other harmful effects from the attack. Only attacks and attack skills can be evaded. Spells cannot be evaded.
Evasion also gives a chance to avoid critical strikes. If an incoming critical strike succeeds its hit roll, a second hit roll is performed to determine if the critical is evaded or not. If this roll succeeds, a critical strike is scored. If it fails, the attack still hits, but only for regular damage.
Critical strikes from Spells cannot be evaded.
Evading an attack prevents all damage and other harmful effects from the attack. Only attacks and attack skills can be evaded. Spells cannot normally be evaded, but the Phase Acrobatics keystone ability gives a 20% chance to dodge spells.
If you have a 40% chance to evade and a 20% chance to dodge, you have a 6/10 * 8/10 chance to be hit, or a 52% chance to take no damage in total.
The effect of dodging and evading are the same. Evasion only protects against attacks.
Your evasion rating will never drop below 5%.
