DBs have amazing avoid, but when they get hit, they get [i]trucked.[/i]
Shads have pretty good avoid still, but they have meso guard and shield mastery to fall back on when they *do* take shots.
@DeathnoteKid: Didn't say DB doesn't have any avoid, I said they don't have any dodge rate. The skill descriptions on DB skills are wrong, if it says dodge rate it means avoid. This has been discussed many times in past threads in both Basil and Southperry.
@DeathnoteKid: There's two kinds of Avoid: Evasion Rate and Dodge Rate.
DB: 70% Evasion Rate
Shad: 20% Evasion Rate, 45% Dodge Rate
Shad's have the slight edge in Avoid mainly due to the fact that Evasion Rate as a whole caps at 90%, where as Dodge Rate can be extended upon that. As for survivability, Shad's take the cake with 60% Damage Reduction from Meso Guard. However, bosses that do % HP attacks will disregard any Avoid/Damage Reduction for the most part.
@iDivideZer0 Db's do have avoid my son rouge gives you a passive 15% avoid, Shadow meld gives 30% passive doge Chance, another 15% avoid from dagger/katara mastery,and another passive 25% avoid mirror Target which also gives 60% def/mdef.
As a shadower I can't remember the last time I died to something that wasn't a 1hko or DR. Meso guard reduces damage by 60% and I rarely get hit at all. With enough luk you can max your avoid at 9999 and have a 45% dodge rate. You should just assume your wep def is at 9999 too because it's way too easy to max it.
there's also smokescreen and iframes
Maybe db are better with some fundings, but with [i]extreme[/i] funds shadowers are beyond godly
Shadower's amazing survivability isn't based around a high HP, it's because we have a skill called meso guard that prevents us from losing much HP. And we also have a decent amount of avoid (not as much as DB in comparison) and 45% dodge rate (which DB doesn't have)
I'm lvl 206, and have 27k hp
we are top 4 in tankiest classes. i have 25.6k hp at 204. prolly 26k if i had a kaiser link skill...
edit: im a shadower
[quote=Senpqi]With low funds Shadower is the one to pick, Dual blade are not that good without large amounts of funds and shadowers are tanks and hit very high numbers without funds.[/quote]
alright so i guess ill make a shad with lower funds
I have 21k hp and pretty high avoid.
Shadower=HP
Dual blade= avoidability
[quote=SpiritBag]I have 25k hp[/quote]
Level? Guess im just not sure whether to make a shadower or DB with little funds lol
I have 25k hp
[quote=CherryTigers]Shadowers are tanky so they have lots. DB's have low hp until you get stronger and your avoidability starts to shine.[/quote]
oh i see. do u know when the high avoid really kicks in?
Everything has decent HP nowadays. Even beginners and mages.
