Base Dodge (Not a whining post)

So we all know the Base dodge is 2%. But how does that get factored in when dodge buffs and debuffs are being tossed around. I hit lvl 85 yesterday and was doing the DS 9 Hard battles with an EP lead and went up against the Jedi is DS 9-A hard and one of them dodged and I was just rather confused. Yes, it was with the Luminara in the leader spot, however, even Lumi's dodge lead can't make up for the -32% evasion from my EP lead.
So my question is, is the base dodge somewhat like the base tenacity of 15%? I feel like this isn't the case as I've run EP against old ben leads in the arena and I've never seen a Jedi dodge even with an Old Ben lead and I'm pretty sure the 2% dodge chance would've triggered by now. So is it really possible for that to have been the 2% base dodge or is the AI just buffing it's dodge or is the leader ability off? Just somewhat confused and curious about how the base rate is factored into attacks.

  • There is something more than just the 2% they post.

    Certain toons have naturally high evasion. Aayla's description says as much. RG and JC dodge more under Lumi lead than others. A few others as well I can't think of off the top of my head.

    But how do we know this? They haven't updated Aayla's description in a very long time, and other characters that say "naturally high evasion" or the likes typically grant themselves foresight or evasion up. I just don't know if this is all for certain and was just wondering if there was any harder evidence of how the evasion thing works, I don't really care that the Jedi dodged (it wasn't a Jedi Consular it was the Jedi apprentice or whatever, one of the ones we cant get) more just wondering if this is a bug or if theres something we aren't able to see.
    I don't doubt you, I just don't like how we can't see this for certain.
