A decade of experience and time spent as a dedicated member of thesteelwarrior's community. We parsed that shit to death, seriously. Agility doesn't do any more good for you than the 1 AC per 3 agi or so that it gives you, and that's not enough to warrant gearing for it or putting points in the stat. Most of the time, it isn't even worth it for the shaman to buff your agi unless he can't spend his mana on anything else. People think it gives all kinds of dodge bonuses because some prima guide somewhere said it helped you avoid attacks, but it said so because AC helps you avoid attacks and agility gives AC. It's pretty much a useless stat as long as it doesn't get below 75. If it gave any kind of meaningful avoidance, halflings and wood elves would be the best warriors, not ogres. I can't say if this server's mechanics are the same, they often aren't and there's countless little quirks where the original codebase builders had to make guesses. On Live during this period, agility gave nothing but its 3 or 4 agi = 1 AC.

Well, thanks for the insight. I'll have to rethink my paladin's gear, then.
