    I'm hearing conflicting things about this, if it got nerfed, does anyone have numbers? I don't want to re aug everything until I know what's up if I can avoid it.

    Thanks!

    All of your avoidances were nerfed to be capped at something like 95%

    You still get the DPS benefits and avoidance up until that point

    So as Ranger, we must stop focus on HDeX ?

    As for group tanks that used to focus on hdex? Is it still wise to stay hdex? Not sure how the avoidance worked before this nerf.

    Before this change, you were able to avoid 100 % hits of groups mobs of some 4 years ago expansion (TT missions for evolving TBL chase item) by reaching enough Hdex (and we speak of a high amount, like around 2000 +). They just made it so it's not possible to avoid 100 % on older content. Same can be said for dodge and Hagi.
    It won't change anything on current group mob content, which is what matters. I bet even going full Hdex you were unable to reach a 95 % avoidance rate against TBL group mobs.

    This was very helpful. As a returning SK, I heard about the nerf to HDex and wondered the same thing. It sounds like it's not going to make a bit of difference to my character, who is really only going to be playing the group game.
