Dodgemaster

<< < (2/3) > >>

Klear:
Right. Is it usually worth it to take dodgemaster for the ~10% dodge chance that's left to 100% and better chance to dodge the first chainfired projectile (which will still be followed by more)? I have a feeling that taking another level of hellrunner might be preferable, if you don't need dodgemaster for your master.

HenWen:
Just to clarify a few things:

Dodge will not work vs. shotguns or revenants.  Viles do splash damage with a 2 tile radius, so run speed is more important than dodge chance.  Mancubi will commonly hit you with one of the three projectiles they fire.

When Klear said parallel, he is kind of correct, but I think it is more accurate to say that you should not move in a straight line towards or away from an enemy.  So if an enemy is on a horizontal or vertical line when you start your turn, move diagonally.  If an enemy is on a diagonal line from you, move straight up, down, left, or right. 

Also keep in mind that running adds a huge amount to your dodge chance.   

AlterAsc:
Runninga adds 20.Can't call it huge, but helps.
Dodging techically works against revenants, explosion center is not on your tile.So with working MFa dodging their rockets is not useless.
About mancubi: i'm sure that their targeting behaviour is strange.Once i just stood(not moved) and mancubi missed.And several times when i tried to dodge with DM i'm pretty sure i got hit by central rocket.I think i should recheck it (my mibd playing tricks on me?) but i'm sure it happened.

Jack Trades:
I played a completely unrelated technician character and made a Tactical Armor just because I didn't have anything else to spend my A mods on and DAMN! It regenerates durability.
Now I just HAVE to try to make a full Tactical gear Scout character. I always have problem with not having any armor at all in the later game because it breaks all the time.

ih8regin:
while it regains durability, the only protection it provides is speed and dodge bonus. Don't use it in melee :) Or at least swap it whenever you need meleeing.
