"Everything has a counter. People want a char that can beat anything and it ain't / shouldn't happen" - a senior Firetrap official.

Sentiments are true. Each capped char is varied and has its place. From hsoma perspective dex is not the absolute power in PvP but certainly not useless.

MA is over powered. How about instead of changing it we see some good MD acess / upgrades added this would keep both sides happy

Robes don't help a lot against a Mage in. 7% Eva , 60+ more int and MA access the only chance a dex char has is to stop the casts as we get 2 hit killed

I have great respect for the GMs and especially the fact that they take the time out to make all of this possible.

I have seen many people moan and complain and not give any thought to that fact.

I have also considered a number of people have been extremely inconsiderate to the GMs and, of course, this is not a democracy and we (players) have no "right" to demand anything.

I especially was amused when someone posted "I have never made a donation to this game and I never will" and iSlyver replied "That's a bit of a dick statement to make" (or very similar) - the ramifications being obvious.

This is the only time I have complained about a GM action.

My whole raison d'etre is dexterity and evasion and, in one sweeping statement, that has just been wiped out arbitrarily. I am not the only player who has this ethos. A number of people have worked very long and hard to meet this achievement and to THEN have it removed is clearly very unfair.

Other than Fuji, what Mages have 7% eva? Any real Dex chars will never need Acc to hit a mage. My MA is significantly lower wen I have to move to eva vs melee chars over MA gear. Make your choice, you can't have it all.

It's about evasion for melee, not MA.

1% makes a fundamental difference in a fundamental game mechanic.

"Make your choice"? Well, some of us did and we chose evasion; it's just been taken away from us.

Nothing has been taken away from anyone.

A more complete change has been made to ensure the initial game intention of evasion is kept.
That intention is that no player should have 100% evasion.

Prior to the recent update, evasion was made harder to obtain, however players still managed to achieve 100% evasion.

This update serves ONLY to ensure 100% isn't achievable (which was the initial intention).

I still say it should be 80% accu/eva as cap, 2 out of 10 is not going to break your character.

Personally think this is a great change and agree with Sylverangel that it could be 80-90% eva cap on mobs.

Whole concept of just leveling with 100% eva is just flawed imo
