<div></div><div></div><div></div><div><u>Tranquil Vision:</u>Grants the monk a chance to shield an ally from melee attacks, by allowing the target a chance to use the monk's avoidance check <b>after their own avoidance check</b>. This also increases the monk's deflection skill.

Some adornments trigger on these and some AA's too...That's why I think <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div>

<P>Yours is checked first, then if yours fails, the buff attempts to fire -- if it fires, then his is checked.</P> <P>Since master is about 50% check rate... If you assume that you avoid 50% of incoming attacks, and if your other tank would normally avoid 50% attacks..</P> <P>Then 50% of the time it would check his avoid, which would block 50% of those...</P> <P>IE, it should improve your overall avoidance by about 13% in that scenario.</P>

<P>Monks avoidance buff can also give the fighter target 5% hate transfer from monk to target with correct AAs. If monks target for the buff is non fighter it takes 5% aggro from the player like amends instead. Now if that was 50% and not 5% it would be good indeed hehe</P> <P> </P> <P>BTW small difference but with 2 fighters with 50% avoid its a 12.5% improvment in avoidance (assuming normal mobs that dont have high to hit bunuses of course)</P> <P> </P><p>Message Edited by Illustrious on <span class=date_text>12-15-2006</span> <span class=time_text>04:34 PM</span>
