Avoidance
Description: Avoidance is a sum of several stats that will increase your chance to avoid incoming attack.
Stats that increase avoidance:
Block (Non-Brawlers): Block chance is based on the player’s shield. The higher the protection rating, the higher chance to block. Block Chance is uncontested, meaning it is a straight percentage chance to avoid an incoming attack.
Block (Brawlers): Brawlers have two types of block. Contested block which is based on their Deflection Skill and level difference and Uncontested Block which is based off of their “Minimum Deflection Chance.”
Parry: Parry is a contested roll based on the defender’s parry skill and level compared against the attacker’s weapon skill and level.
Dodge: A contested roll based on the defender’s defense skill and level compared against the attacker’s weapon skill and level.
Riposte: Chance for a successful parry roll to riposte part of the damage back on your attacker.
Contested vs uncontested avoidance:
Contested avoidance is avoidance that takes the defender’s skills and compares them against the target’s offensive skills and level difference and creates the avoidance chance.
Uncontested avoidance is avoidance that is a straight percentage chance to avoid an incoming attack regardless of the target’s offensive skills or level. Uncontested avoidance is affected by Dodge, Parry, Riposte, Block Chance and Minimum Deflection Chance.

Description: Increases amount of all your offensive, healing and taunt abilities, combat arts and spells.
Cap: no cap!
Fervor
Description: Adds additional percent of damage or heal to abilities, combat arts and spells. It applies after all other modifiers have been applied. For example, your if spell does 200 damage after pot, abil mod, crit chance, crit bonus have been applied and you had 10 fervor, you would do 220 damage.
Cap: 100
Ability Modifier
Description: Abil mod increases the amounts of all abilities. It caps at 50% of the base amount (factoring in Potency) of the ability. For example, if your spell does 1 to 110 damage, look at the max value 110. Half the value of this is the 50% cap for abil mod. In this case the value is 55, so you would need 55 abil mod to max out additional damage your ability can do. Now in case you have 70 abil mod, it would still only add 55 to that same spell because that’s the max amount it can add. To figure out what abil mod your toon needs, look through your most often used abilities and calculate the 50% of their base value. Figure out their median value then and that will be your ~50% abil mod that you should have. Some classes like wizards and warlock benefit from high abil mod values, while some like bards wouldn’t benefit as much from it and usually have it much less.
Cap: no cap!
Hate Mod
Description: Directly affects value of threat you generate. Above 0 it increases the value and going into negative will reduce the value. The positive hate mode is used only by tanks and hate reducing value should be used if you’re having issues with snapping mobs from your tanks.
