Accuracy
Accuracy is a rating that measures a character's chance to hit with melee and ranged weapons. Accuracy is opposed by the defender's evasion.
Every point of Dexterity gives 2 additional base accuracy, and characters gain 2 base accuracy when leveling up.
Mechanics
Accuracy is weighed against the target's evasion when determining if an attack hits or misses according to:[1][2]
Chance to hit can not be lower than 5%, nor higher than 95% by default.
- Resolute Technique will raise the chance to hit to 100%, ignoring all accuracy and evasion stats of the attacker and defender respectively, at the cost of reducing the attacker's global critical chance to 0%.
- Unwavering Stance does the same, in reverse; all attacks against the subject will hit regardless of accuracy.
Spells do not benefit from accuracy since evasion does not aid in avoiding them.
In the plot below the chance to hit has been plotted against the attacker's accuracy and the defender's evasion rating.
