Q u o t e: What's Up with Hunters:
Issue: Targets now Dodge/Parry/etc. Ranged Attacks on Test Realms -- miss rate is higher
Last Updated: 4/13/05 - 4:45PMPST
Status: NEW: This change will not reach Live realms -- it has been removed. Dodge and Parry will not apply to ranged attacks. (Note: there is a messaging change -- some Misses were being wrongly called Deflects -- so the actual "miss" word may be shown more, but the miss rate is not different)
Q u o t e: Hunter changes in the patch:
Now, Dodge, Parry, and all that are tied to the Defense skill -- if the Defense of your opponent is high, you will see these more. These messages are being seen more often for two reasons:
1) There was a change made that makes ranged attacks subject to Defense (which you know), and
2) There was a change made in the reporting, just as there was for melee attacks a few patches ago. What used to be reported as a "miss" or "deflect" that was in fact a dodge or parry is now being properly reported.
Defense ratings are still being looked into, but the feeling is that they're too strong on the Test Realm last I heard. They're still investigating it.
Well? Which is is?[ post edited by Doublestout ]
Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change.
