Evasion Too Effective

Hi,

You might remember me from such bugs as "Torch-Bearer fiery mode graphic reversion glitch" or "structure materialization freeze"...

I have observed that when a Demigod is equipped with an item or items that impart 'Evasion' capability, every time they Evade damage they emit an onscreen message to that effect. Excellent - I like seeing this, it tells me the item or items are working.

The bug lies with the effectiveness of that ability. With any Demigod, when I return to the friendly heal stone thing to heal, I notice a great number of healings actually being Evaded! This I suspect also applies to healings in the field by the friendly 'priest' units, as well as any beneficial buff effects from ally Demigods. I suspect further that this peculiar bug applies on occassion to my own heal potion imbibing... sometimes quaffing such a potion takes the time (the meter fills up) but does absolutely nothing beyond reducing my heal potion count by one.

This is easy to enable: just purchase an item that imparts Evasion traits.

I did not see it in the list. Perhaps if it was there it was obscured by the contrast of the backdrop used in the list I assume you refer to.

Ahh yes, found it. I would posit that this effect evasion also potentially applies, as I implied above, to any type of friendly effect, not just healing. Worth consideration perhaps.

I don't really see the issue with heals being evaded.

Not when it takes forever and a day to kill somebody with the evade.

this thing evades like over 80% of the time i was shooting at someone for like 30 seconds and i landed 6 hits and its soppose to be 15% evade

Yes...when you have evade 30% it evades 70%...

This is definately a bug imo...sometimes when i take evade i get missed like 10 times in a row....and im not THAT lucky.

And innociv the evade wasnt made to evade healing. Atm maybe it balances it out because the evade is like 70% but when its fixed to only 15% evade then i dont see why you should evade healing aswell.

Oh it evading more than it should is definitely a problem, yeah.
