[DoubleX]

DoubleX RMVXA Reflect State
Version: v1.00b

Introduction

If a battler has inflicted a reflect state, he/she/it'll always reflect non certain hit skills and items from anyone to enemies. Such reflection overrides magic reflection(MEV) and counterattack but not evasion nor magic evasion.
To effectively set the reflection to override evasion or magic evasion, minus EVA or MEV in reflect state's features until they're non-positive.

Features

* Use of notetags(requires knowledge of notetag usage) to set specific states to reflect skills and items from anyone to enemies
