I just killed rb and my shadowstrike missed 90% of the times. I had 6.7k attack.
How much attack do i need to land it more successfully?

Attack has 0 effect on your skills hit rate. Attack only increases your chance of landing a mele attack.

Cunning helps but some bosses have a really high evasion to movement attack and ss will just miss a majority of the time on those bosses

Movement attack evasion is your chance to evade those skills. It has nothing to do with landing skills

Cunning doesn't help land skill attacks. It increases skill effectively though.

Mob evasion percentage is fixed depending on which mob. Bosses have higher rates than normal mobs. And just like your movement evasion ability is one single number that affects your chance to evade movement attacks, doesn't matter who you fight, your evasion chance is the same. There's nothing you can do about it.

If you believe OTM is telling the truth, then class ability has nothing to do with skill hits.

As confirmed by OTM years ago:
The evasions work off the level and the evasion ability.

So for example if you are higher level than the enemy, you will evade their attacks more, the same goes the other way around.

So if you are currently fighting things much higher level than you, there will be more evasions, but as you level up the tables will turn and you start to will evade their skills more than they do yours.

Thanks!
