Skill Mod Details
Counter attack is a secondary defense skill ability that negates the entirety of the opponent's attack if it successfully goes off. Like all other secondary defensive effects, this skill can only be activated if a valid profession linked weapon is equipped. I.e for a counterattack defense to go off, a player must equip a two hand melee weapon or a carbine. Chance to apply Status effects will still come through from an attack however as they are on a separate check. Counter Attack simply negates the attack (similar to dodge). It does not return an attack against the attacker.
Each point in a profession's secondary defense modifier (counter attack, defense acuity, dodge, block) seems to be equivalent to increasing the percentage chance to initiate that defense by 0.21 per skill point.
Example: Master fencer = 105 dodge
105 dodge = 22% chance to dodge
Likewise for center of being efficacy modifiers:
One-handed Melee Center Of Being Efficacy: 115 = 24%
If a fencer should initiate center of being, then they would in effect have a combined total of 46% chance to dodge an attack.
Potential bug NOTE:
During Pre-Cu the teras kasi defense acuity seemed to have an adverse affect applied to its secondary defenses. It's COB state only gave roughly 22% chance of a secondary state to go off. This seems to indicate that only its efficacy mods were taken into consideration by soe for whatever reasons. This is possibly a bug and might should be remedied so that TK's share the same defensive chances as the other professions.
