Question on how dodge works?

If I look at a character's stats and he has a dodge of 2%. In an arena team where the leader does not grant bonuses and his (Sidious) own special bonus (vs. jedi) doesn't apply against my non-jedi team. If for the next 3 full turns each of my 5 characters attack and he dodges every single one, is there a hidden buff or is this just how the RNG works?

If level matters, he's 5 levels below.
If * rating matters he's 2 stars below.
No mods that add to dodge.

  • Are you exaggerating? 15 dodges in a row on a character without bonus evasion is almost impossible. key word is "almost".
  • As with everything in this game. Each attack has a 2% chance to be dodged. If that happened 15 times in a row you had some really bad RNG.

    With a high sample size, which 15 attacks is not, it should average out to 2%.
  • Simple: if you're f2p, and the next attack would take out the AI's toon, then it becomes _very_ likely that the toon will dodge the attack.

    I don't really know if this applies only to f2p, but I've seen this sequence of events happen _way_ too often to be just bad RNG. I've never had 15 consecutive dodges, but I have lost battles because I was about to take out a toon (often Sidious) and, near "death", he would dodge every single attack (at least 8 of them) while his mates quickly made short work of my team. It should be mentioned that the player does not have such a benefit of the "dodge of life" (at least, I usually don't); one more of those situations that make this game "fair".

    AI is rigged, there are a lot more dodges


    People repeating this, still doesn't make it true.
  • It's pretty simple..when you battle, the ai dodges about 50% more than you and it doesn't matter which character....they all do. And when it comes to attacks, ai gets about 25% more attacks than you..again, it doesn't matter which character. My favorite game is to take my squad against a lower ranked squad of the same people and watch my guys get creamed because somehow they attack and dodge way more than I do.
  • My team survived 5 turns...I just decided to focus on Sidious and see how many misses in a row I could get. No different then the couple of times I've had Boba Fett rez, die, rez, die, rez, die...literally 8 times in a row...just funny seeing the RNG at work.

    Glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. It used to bug the hell out of me when healers were all over the arena. Constantly I'd get a toon into the red, then Dodge, Dodge, Dodge, AI lumi heals them fully. That used to happen constantly.

    But since healers have disappeared in arena and damage has gotten massive, it's not really an issue for me anymore.
