Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General Strength vs Agility

I saw that agility statistic also influences damages for melee.(Is this correct?)

If this is the case, is it interesting to develop agility for a melee fighter?
Is it enough to boost speed and strength?

It depends on the weapon you use. Some weapons are purely strength based, some are agility based and some are a combination of the two.

Agility influences your accuracy and evasion, so I would worry about getting those values up enough and meeting any minimum equipment requirements before deciding whether to use agility or strength for the damage bonus.

Does Agility influence the chance to hit with a sword?

i'm not sure if it influenseces the chance to hit, but i'm sure it is imporatant for the chance to dodge blows.

Your accuracy is determined mostly by agility and partly by survival. It is independent of the weapon used, AFAIK, neglecting any weapon speciality skills.

Evasion is determined mostly by speed and partly by agility. I'm not sure how the chance to hit / be hit are calculated from your accuracy / evasion and that of the opponent in question.

Ok.

Can someone from Larian precise the formula for the chance to hit and being hit?
