somebody please tell me what I'm missing
in sand sprites with 61 parry and shield and 62 evasion
Just standing here in under 10 minutes stanced for parry and evasion till parry is locked the changed to shield and evasion till shield is locked and evasion never moves past dabbling (1/34)
swap my stance over to 100% evasion and 0% for shield and parry and still stay at dabbling (1/34)
Why isn't my char learning evasion?

Are you actually evading? What armor are you wearing? How many sprites are you dancing with? What is your MO.
Combat has many many many variables. More data is always better than less when it comes to combat questions.

Read it. Study it. Learn it. Live it.
Because that's how combat works is the short answer. As I said, combat is complex. If you wish to spend any time in it, that is a good starting point.

Reduce your hindrance, your encumbrance and increase your evasion stance. If you are failing to evade properly, you will fail to learn Evasion properly.
You might try removing some pieces of armor and removing ALL extraneous items on your character. Even a few stones of extra weight can impact your Evasion negatively.
Also, try increasing your Reflex or your Strength/Stamina if you are overburdened.

They fixed the bug where any weight was hindering your evasion. Now your burden only hinders you if it actually shows up as light or above, but not as none. (iirc.)

It looks the same, she says, but it is not.
It looks as they expect, but it is not."

The other thing you'll find when it comes to evasion learning is that natural 4 legged critters teach evasion REALLY well, whereas two legged humanoid weapon wielding critters teach parry much much better... evasion? Not so much.
At those ranks, beisswurms or bone wolves will teach evasion better than sand sprites.

>>so why is it my char has such a harder time dodging here than parrying or blocking with a shield dodge is trained a rank higher but fails almost utterly
>Evasion is hindered by more things than parry and shield.
True. Also, when you partially evade it reduces the attack to where it can be parried easily. You can't parry first and then dodge, however.
