I think what might have confused you guys is that you might have been overestimating the value of str and underestimating the value of high skill levels :)

Something tells me you guys will get further by experimenting and figuring out how each attribute effects the damage for yourselves. ;)

Petri- does fighting in the dark have negative effect on the accuracy?

Crap, I made this mistake too. Oh well, so far I am doing decently anyways so will probably just finish this run through anyways.

I was wondering about that as well, I have had my rogue save the day when everyone else is dead and he just keeps dodging and little by little, nick by nick takes out the mobs that trapped and killed the rest of the party members.

Interesting I have a front row Rogue who had maxed Evasion, Traits, max Dodge, Max Dex everything. He gets hit ALL THE TIME. (on normal to) :(

I was starting to think Evasion was pointless, you guys have had better results it seems. :?

This REALLY irritates me.

Completely unintuitive.

First thing I've found that I serious dislike about this game.

Wondered the same thing yesterday...
And saw that shields give Evasion bonuses...so I guess a Rogue with a dagger and a shield would be the best combo?
Weird...but I like it in a way...but still weird...

Might be a little too soon to ask but: Is Evasion working at all in this game?
I'm asking this because many people, including me, seem to have trouble evading attacks with their fron row Rogue...

Maybe my Rogues evasion is that good that the code has wrapped round and made it dreadfull instead! :lol: (I've seen something similar to this before in a game)
