Are there any plans to make magic missile type spells and arrows dodgeable?..

...or are they always going to land?

Also if I am on a castle rampart or on part of the wall will I be able to resist magic and arrows better?

Also, will there ever be a magic resistence innate skill (all magics not just elemental type)?

Does raising intelligence also raise my magic resistances?

 

That they always land is a temporary solution. Its been said that it will be one of the things that will not probably change until we go to beta though since lots of tech systems need to be in place before they can track line of sight etc.

Cover is planned.

"Cover Delayed: As many of you have pointed out, our combat has been unbalanced, buggy, and almost unplayable for a few releases. Most importantly it just isn’t very fun yet. We realized that adding a new major system on top of this unwieldy mess would be counter productive. So we instead decided to focus more on balance, bug fixes, and general enjoyability before we added cover."

Yes, but this is changing and will continue to change due to balancing. Here was a first draft where such resistance was mentioned.

So probably there will be some, but the resistances for a specific element or such will be higher.

Hmm, don't know that one.
Check if there is a metric for it using the 'v' key interface in game.
If so you can test it yourself in game.

 

Thank you Spoon!

There is a big change coming soon to armour that will actually provide some defence against magic. At the moment the only defence is having more health.
