Escape Artist

Ascendancy Notable Passive Skill

+5 to Evasion Rating per 1 Maximum Energy Shield on Equipped Helmet
+1 to maximum Energy Shield per 6 Evasion Rating on Equipped Body Armour [1]

Escape Artist is a notable Ascendancy passive skill for the Trickster grants evasion rating per energy shield on your equipped helmet and energy shield per evasion rating on your equipped body armour.

The bonus evasion/ES granted by Escape Artist is not part of the item's defense values. Therefore, it does not factor into modifiers which scale off an item's defense values such as item quality and X% increased Energy Shield from Body Armour. On the other hand, modifiers which directly affect the item's defense values, such as Oath of the Maji, will increase the amount of evasion/ES gained from Escape Artist.
