I was sure before that magic does not miss but lately. I;m not sure if this is totally true, since in the last few weeks some magic mobs have missed.

Unless I;m confusing magic attack with a range physical attack.

For instance, the towerling mobs around fb69 miss me every now and then. is their attack considered magical?

    Towerlings are ranged physical, so they can miss. Likewise so are Death Knights and any other mobs that launch those red & black smokey skulls at people. Also many TT bosses AoE is physical. Unfortunately their is no database that lists who does ranged physical & who does magical, but as a BM you should be able to tell what ranged attack barely scratch your armor, & which really hurt. Those towers dont hurt a BM very much.

    They also follow the same rule as archers. 50% damage up close.

    Magic users can be interrupted while casting. I guess that's a countermeasure to make up for the no missing.
