    The way I've always suspected it worked is just like Accuracy and Attack. Evasion Skill = ~0.9 Evasion when over 200 (?)

    Just like 1 Combat Skill roughly equal to ~0.9 Acc/atk for said skill. I think that's what it is. I might be off by a 0.?

    I Can't find any testing, But until I do, I'm going to assume the above Formula is correct :x, I have no reason to doubt otherwise.

    It works on the same system Accuracy and Magic Acc does. You would'nt notice much difference comparing 20 evasion skill vs. evasion, however do a comparison with 50+ you might see more of a difference.

    One way of checking this for yourself would be subbing a job that has a skill your main does not natively have such as /WAR on RNG or RDM and equipping a Staff. Remove any and all Accuracy/DEX gear and go melee on some mobs that you would hit at reasonable but not high rate. After you get a feel of your accuracy rate, change your subjob to something that you have absolutely no skill in, equip accuracy and try and even out your accuracy to what your skill would have been with the previous sub. Go back to the same mobs as before and melee again and melee till you have a good grasp on your accuracy rate and compare.

    1) There's an accuracy floor. You will always hit at least 20% of all hits.

    2) It's well documented how accuracy works. It's quite possible, depending on the mob and skill levels involved, that you're just going from Floored Acc to Floored Acc. Either way it doesn't really matter. It's incredibly easy to calculate your accuracy without having to whack birds with a staff.

    3) Skill and Stat add to the same total figure. Skill is not "Immune to diminishing returns". Skill definitely has diminishing returns in the exact same manner as basic stats. [ (Skill <= 200) + ([Skill>200] * .9) + (DEX/X*) + (Net Accuracy+) ] * (Food Bonus) = Total Acc. Total Acc has diminishing returns, and caps at 95%.

    * X = 2 for one handers, X = 4/3 for two handers.

    You cap accuracy on EM targets when your Acc is greater than or equal to their Eva+40. It doesn't matter how much of that is skill or how much of that is acc+. It's all the same thing.
