Deflection vs To-Hit

[SuperPlyx]

Notice I will sometimes get a power Deflected when I attack, seem to notice it more on my melee toons. And I know I don't have Tactics or somesuch power on these guys.

Which made me wonder if a higher To-Hit bonus would cut through the Deflection ??

Is there a correlation between To-Hit and Deflection ?? or even Accuracy ??

Powers that add Defense have an optional parameter called DisplayPowerDefenseFloat. This param allows the power's creator to display a text message that pops up when a successful Defense roll is made. You'll see various ones like Dodged! Deflected! Blocked! etc. They all do the same thing though, just +Defense buffs.

tl;dr example when the tohit check succeeds

 

Some day I will figure out how to embed a video
