Another 10% from DW, 10% from Parry Master, 20% from 30 points in Finesse and 10% from gear gets you there in this patch.

This will only get worse with more gear/levels if nothing stacks to give accuracy.


Right, forgot about those other ways. Definitely need some way to counter that or reduce those numbers somewhere. It's not that any of those numbers are particularly bad in themselves (except 50% from leadership definitely is kind of ridiculous), but all stacked together it's too much. It's not even like you really have to really build for a dodge build in this case. Basically any dual wield build will naturally get at least 40% dodge without even trying that hard.

I would probably remove the dodge chance from dual wield and replace it with something else, if only to help distinguish it from finesse somewhat. Leadership dodge chance probably could be toned down to 3% a point as long as its range is increased. So 30 (finesse) + 30 (leadership) + 10 (parry master) + 10ish (gear) is 80, which is still a lot. But at least that requires a bit more directly investing in a dodge build to maximize it.

And as long as accuracy and various statuses can counter dodge, there's more room to balance even with existing numbers. There's already statuses like Mark and Rage that remove dodge chance.
