Simple change.. SWITCH the names(so smart is spell evasion and evasion is physical evasion), makes ALOT more sense and if you dont get why, leave thread and go read a book.
People who will come and start crying "everyone is used to it"... YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID.

evasion can be used for both cuz u can evade phisicak att but u can evade magic attacks and the game designers just picked the evasion as magic evasion. doesnt make more sence at all to change it cuz evasion aplies to magic effect aswell... and about smart, has nothing to do with either one of the evading types if u ask me...
PS : i cant vote on any of ur topics for some reason

how the hell can you evade a lightning bolt?
anyway smart as in the user predicts the spell and takes proper countermeasures.
sorry I disagree with you.
And I have no idea why you cant vote

but if u say smart is to predict the spell, why can smart be to predict the physical dmg?
and u can evade lightning bolt just like u can evade a physical attack

in physical combats you use your instincts, very little people use their usual senses. you need to hoan alot of skill and train alot to not let the inner animal take over. Smart actually can be physical evasion but it would suit spell much more.
and you can't dodge a lightning bolt, you can evade it but it still takes cleverness, so you have to be smart.
I personally think its just a mixup while translating the rare names that was never fixed.

what i keep seeing from ur posts and my own instincts, i see that both the words can be used in both occassions and therefor i still dont see much of a reason to change the names...
and dodging a spell is just as instinctif as dodging a phisical attack ...

I noticed in every poll you make you add a smart-ass statement followed by a (lol) in an attempt at making the people who do not vote for what YOU voted feel stupid/uncomfortable. Cheap tactics imo.

Both can be applied to both. People are used to what it is now. Leave it alone.
All I know is that if I was smart, I would have evaded this game years ago.
I don't know why I felt like adding that.

Focus on fixing the Engrish in NPC dialogues, game text and descriptions as well as logic flaws in DR : remove the word "bored" from your dictionary for the next 200 hours.
If you really have to change that, go for "Physical evasion" and "Magical evasion". This way, people won't whine because they make the wrong rares. If they do, you know what to tell them.
