Just something that has thrown me for a loop. Ive been working on my MNK and getting it up to snuff. With that said Ive been working on breaking the latent on my Club of Trials (last WS I need to have all MNK Blue procs, w00t). During this process I have been discovering that Counterstance is alot more valuable than previously thought. Let me also say that my evasion is not capped on MNK. What has thrown me for a loop is that while breaking the latent on the Club of Trials I have gotten many Evasion Skill ups while countering.
I thought for Counter to go off you had to fail to evade the enemy and pass the accuracy check on your counter. This says to me that you fail to evade so you can't get a skill up. But at the same time you can get evasion skill ups when getting hit. Just curious on others thoughts on this. I didn't think it could happen til I saw it first hand.
inb4 - lol @ uncapped skills
