Hit & damage calculation order of effects
There are a number of steps involved in deciding whether an attack hits or not and how much damage is done:

* Evasion is checked first
* If the attack is not evaded, then blocking is checked
* If the attack is not blocked, then calculate damage reduction and resistances
* Subtract damage from energy shield/life
