I understand that luck effects how often you hit for a critical, but i was wondering does it effect what is dropped?

AND WHAT DOES EVATION DO?! I have super high evation but i always get hit. so what does it do?

LCK affects criticals, nothing else.

Evasion helps you evade enemy attacks, but it either works or it doesn't. If it does work you will block, otherwise you take damage depending on the enemy's ATP and your DFP. Of course some attacks deal fixed damage and can't be evaded at all.

low def and a high evasion
you will block, but if you get hit, you will suffer big damage
high def and a low evasion,
if dfp higher then enemy atp then you will block
if dfp lower then enemy atp then you will sufer a low damge hit

it also depends on the enemy ata, higher the ata, more acurate is the atacks (even if he does 1 damage or so)
i have almost 1000 evp but some criatures on ultimate have a 100% hit (i don't have a chance to block due to enemy ata)

Try casting Jellen. For some reason it seems to drop enemy ATA sometimes. I block like crazy after a Jellen and my EVP sucks.

I try to keep both evp. and def. equily high or about the same.

EVP has it's uses. Boosting EVP on characters that naturally have high EVP means lots of blocking though you'll have to be even more careful about getting surrounded.

Luck also has to do with how successful you are at freezing, shocking, or killing by using spells such as megid. The more luck you have will also help you to use a weapons effect more often than with lower luck.

No, Luck is only used to calculate Critical Hits. 100LCK= 20% chance of critical.

EVP is used to block enemy attacks, and is incredibly useful in some areas (usually where high DFP is a bane).

if dfp higher then enemy atp then you will block

uhhh, no

My bro put a metal/body on some lvl 1 character a while ago, and stood in the middle of several rappies, they attacked and hit him a few times, but did 0 damage each time
