<p>No one has a 100% hit rate. Hit rate looks so high because of how few hits it takes to kill a mage. Procs also artificially inflate your attacker's hit rate, because procs often don't miss. They swing, hit you and then 40 million procs trigger, all of them hitting because they don't have resist checks or whatever.</p><p>I certainly sympathise with you (I have 2 lvl80 mages) but it just isnt as bad as it looks.</p>

<p>Take away mages ability to instant kill (Wizard/warlock one-two shotting people and Coercer/Illusionists ability to mezz,debuff,and kill you with reactives 3 seconds after mezz breaks.) THEN you can complain.</p>

<p>Hit-rate on mages probably seems so high simply because in both PvE and PvP the base defense skill that everybody gets is incredibly weak. Everything can hit through it easily with a small amount of + attack skill since it is overall the weakest and most contested form of avoid from what I have seen.</p>

<p>All mages can get 14% uncontested avoidance fairly easily.</p>

Not much you can do rly. I don't bother casting our debuff anymore...</p><p>Not to mention they debuff your defense anyway through gracelessness and some CAs which negates your defensive stats...</p>
