Ship Arena dodging increase?

It was asked during an RSG stream a couple days ago, but it seemed to someone else that ships are dodging a lot more in the last couple weeks (roughly since the time CG went on vacation?)

In the last two days I've seen Hound's Tooth dodge 4 (yes FOUR) times in one match multiple times. One of those times it dodged four times in a row. I've noticed more so that tanks are dodging more. A LOT more.

So what did you guys do before you went on vacation? Because something just is not right. And I'm not just talking about the excessive amount of buffing the AI gives itself (or you gave it). Even my Biggs and HT are dodging a lot. Yes my other ships seem to dodge, but why are TANK ships dodging so much more recently?

It keeps happening, daily. Everyday I see a consistent pattern of ships dodging. Like I said, for me I see tanks dodging the most. So what gives? What did you guys break, tweak, flip, sneeze on? Did you let someone who likes ships dodging be in control of the code while you're away?

    CG’s always on vacation, which is why they will only cater to those whales dishing out thousands to pay their staff, instead of actually keeping the game fun. You would think they learned their lessons on the other failed marvel game and learn a lesson. I guess that’s what we should expect, subpar project management, R&D, and overall management decision making. Maybe they should stop visiting “Tapas the World” and walk back across the street and actually find a way to make the game better. Fleet is absolutely screwed. I’ve been invested in this game for over two years, but time is likely coming to an end soon. If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it.. I should take a quick 10 minute drive and talk to thier senior staff downtown Sacramento.

    Oh yeah, at least twice a battle everyday tie fighter dodges while breached. Often twice in a row. It doesn’t even feel like 25% of the time, let alone 2%

    Um I think you misunderstood, breached ships have less accuracy, evasion of the target doesn't change.
    So when a breached ship attack, it is more likely to miss, in other words, the enemy ship you target is more likely to dodge.
    Tie fighter dodging is no surprise.

    Glad I found this thread.

    I recently had one run of 3 sequential attacks at end of one battle, and another first one at start of next all be dodged by a hounds tooth; a supposed 1 in 6,250,000 chance for it to dodge that many times at 2% dodge rate.

    Enemy hounds tooth have repeatedly been dodging way more than 2% for me and it has been doing my flippin head in trying to find a unique from an ally or capital ship that was doing it that I was missing.

    Bug all along. Thank you to those who worked this out and persevered.

    Breach with Hound's Tooth is now flagged as a bug, as it appears to reduce the Breached ship's accuracy, not evasion. If that ship's accuracy is reduced by 25%, that would increase the chance the target has to dodge.

    @Whatelse73


    Yeah, got it. Breached ships aren't the only ones "dodging".

    Case in point: I just started another match and before HT could even attack, I did an attack on HT and he dodged. No breaches, no debuffs, no buffs, nothing. Just plain dodged. And then, Sun Fac dodged. (No breach on the attacker, no breach on Sun Fac, no breach on the adjacent ships, etc.)

    I guess it was just more important to bring out a stupidly overpowered falcon to make us buy a pack for BH ships than to fix a bug that's been present on a ship for 5 months? :tongue:
    I actually suspect there is an accuracy bug, I've noticed some characters that miss more than other characters than they usually should (FOX tends to miss a lot on his special to the point some people on the FO server are using / suggested accuracy arrow on him). Just shrugged it off.

    I have no hard evidence for my claims so eh, but I think the dodge rate on certain attacks / characters is off myself
