[0.9.9.6G Win] DM doesn't deliver

<< < (3/3)

Matt_S:
Hmm, and testing contradicts my theory anyways.  Auto-dodging seems to apply to two consecutive hell knight attacks.

LuckyDee:
I may have found the problem: does DM apply to the first turn after the move that triggers it only, or does it apply to the first projectile fired at the player after he moves (regardless of how many turns/actions come in between)?

If the first assumption is true, then I might just need to retest the scenario. Could be I got hit in the turn that I fired my weapon, right after a move.

Matt_S:
It only applies if your last action was a movement, I believe.

Nope.DM applies only to first projectile per monster.
All attacks after your sidestep have the chance to be fired in a wrong direction, but DM works only once per monster.
You can recheck it on Arachnotrons.
Though it can be different situations, but i doubt it.

@LuckyDee: yes, dodging and DM works only if your last action was sidestepping

I know it only applies to the first shot in a volley, but it appears that two completely separate attacks will both be dodged.  I can't be sure that I'm not just getting lucky, but in my testing I always dodged the second attack.

Edit: after a lot more testing using an enemy with a lower dodge chance, I finally got hit by a second attack, so you're right.  You'll pretty much have to be trying for this to ever come up, though, so it's not the source of the problems people are mentioning.
