Deflection

Deflect

Tooltip

Deflection Rating provides a chance to Deflect damage from Hits, preventing 40% of the damage taken from those Hits and Ailments they inflict. Exact chance to Deflect also depends on the attacker's Accuracy.

Deflection is type of mitigation. It grants a chance to take less damage from a hit by a percentage. Like Evasion, chance to deflect is based on the defender's Deflection Rating against the attacker's Accuracy Rating. Most sources of Deflection Rating scale with the user's Evasion Rating, acting as a supplementary mitigation tool for evasion-based builds.

Mechanics

Deflection uses the same formula as Evasion to check Deflection chance. Unlike Evasion, there is no minimum or maximum Deflect chance.

Unlike Evasion, Deflection will work against boss attacks with a red flash.
