Dodge

Not to be confused with Evasion.

Dodge is a chance to avoid a damaging hit. The Chance to Dodge is a pseudo-random roll made per attack/cast, it is not entropy-based like evasion nor is it affected by accuracy. Dodge is capped at Template:SMW character query% and is rolled before Block.

Mechanics

There are two types of dodge:

• Dodge Attacks applies to attacks. It is rolled after Evasion, it is not connected to the attacker's accuracy and so chance to dodge is unaffected by evasion-related mechanics such as Blind, Resolute Technique or Unwavering Stance.
• Dodge Spell Damage applies to spells. It is rolled before damage reduction.

Dodge Attacks and Dodge Spell Damage are both capped at Template:SMW character query%.

Skills

• Dexterity: Vaal Grace

Passives

There are passive skill nodes that grant additional chance to dodge either attacks or spells.
