====== Accuracy ======

==== Overview ====
**Accuracy** in Remixed Dungeon represents the chance to successfully hit an enemy with an attack. It is a crucial combat mechanic that determines whether your attacks land or miss.

==== How Accuracy Works ====
Accuracy is calculated based on:
  * **Attacker's Attack Skill** - Derived from hero's Dexterity and weapon bonuses
  * **Defender's Defense Skill** - Derived from enemy's stats, armor, and buffs
  * **Weapon Accuracy** - Base accuracy of the weapon being used
  * **Buffs/Debuffs** - Effects like Blindness, Fury, etc. that modify accuracy

The formula roughly follows: `Hit Chance = (Attack Skill / Defense Skill) * Weapon Accuracy * Modifiers`

==== Factors Affecting Accuracy ====
  * **Dexterity**: Higher Dexterity increases attack skill
  * **Weapon Type**: Different weapons have different base accuracy
  * **Weapon Enchantments**: Some enchantments (like Accuracy) improve hit chance
  * **Armor Penalty**: Heavy armor without sufficient Strength reduces accuracy
  * **Rings**: [[en:rpd:ring_of_accuracy_item|Ring of Accuracy]] increases accuracy
  * **Buffs**: Effects like Fury, Haste can affect accuracy
  * **Debuffs**: Blindness, Vertigo significantly reduce accuracy
  * **Distance**: Ranged attacks may have distance penalties

==== Accuracy vs. Evasion ====
  * **Accuracy**: Attacker's ability to hit
  * **Evasion**: Defender's ability to avoid being hit (represented by Defense Skill)
  * High defense skill enemies (bosses, armored foes) are harder to hit
  * Flying enemies may have additional evasion bonuses

==== Improving Accuracy ====
  * Increase **Dexterity** through leveling or equipment
  * Use **Ring of Accuracy** for direct accuracy bonus
  * Choose weapons with higher base accuracy
  * Avoid heavy armor unless you have sufficient Strength
  * Use **Scrolls of Upgrade** on weapons to improve accuracy
  * Apply **Accuracy enchantment** to weapons
  * Remove debuffs like Blindness quickly

==== Related Mechanics ====
  * **Critical Hits**: Separate mechanic from accuracy
  * **Miss**: When accuracy check fails, attack misses entirely
  * **Glancing Blows**: Some attacks may do reduced damage instead of missing
