Monsters have Luck Evasion?

Monsters have Luck Evasion?

Every now and then my shuriken attacks randomly "hit" the target but do no harm to them; they take no damage, they don't stunned, etc. like Evasion Skill working against a bolt. Recently I've been hearing that Luck Evasion could be the cause; is this true or are shuriken attacks missing a glitch?

I find it hard to believe that mobs have luck evasion; out of the many times I have used Frenzy/Way of the Gun + Normal Attack spam, not once have I ever missed.

I have missed with non-crit normal attacks on Guns. No clue for Archery since people usually blame missing on not having enough aim rate or having a false 100% due to delay.

If Luck Evasion was the reason behind Archery missing frequently, that could cripple the skillset.

I think it's way too often to be just luck. Maybe shurikens have a % hit themselves.

That's quite possible, yet difficult to prove. I still say it's a glitch.

Luckily for us a glitch is in the eyes of the developers, not the players. Best you can do is ask Nexon before we call it a glitch publicly without proof.

Does this stuff even happen in KR?

Infodude575 (talk)21:52, 30 July 2014
 

KR doesn't have Ninja and probably never will. Updates JP gets related to Japanese culture typically never gets implemented in Korean versions, in all nexon games that I know of.

I didn't use Ninja enough in JP mabi to notice. With a bad connection and all, its not really viable if you're not from the same country as the server.

Oh right. But what about for dual gun and what do KRs blame archery missing on?

Infodude575 (talk)22:25, 30 July 2014
 

Same boat, I can't use Dual Guns or Archery in KR because of how latency dependent they are and I don't live anywhere near South Korea.

Well, either way. I'm sure they do have luck evasion because I was training in shyllien, and I missed the rabbits there sometimes with guns.

Haven't we seen monsters get lucky finishes on marionettes? Perhaps when we gained luck evasion, everything with luck gained it

Shroom Fonzerelli (talk)17:47, 30 July 2014

Yes, and they can do it to NPCs and Summoned Golems too, and they've been doing that since G9 if I'm not mistaken. However, it is still possible to lucky finish with 0 luck.

I still think its odd how they don't lucky finish us players though.

Slightly related, but is by any chance Explosive Kunai evadable with both the skill and stat by players? I've seen monsters set it off but take no damage or flinch.

EDIT: Tested and stepped on roughly 20 mines with 182 luck, I got hit by all of them and not once did Luck Evasion trigger. So I have more reason to believe them missing is a glitch.
