Perception

From Elona Wiki

Perception Influences your ability to evade attacks, bonus to ranged damage, and chance to land a critical hit.

Perception can be quite hard to level in a timely manner. However, an easier way to grow it is to have the sense quality skill, and then go to any of the random dungeons (preferably puppy cave) and loot a crap-ton of unidentified equipment. Your sense quality will level as you identify the equipment, and give you some much needed exp for your perception skill.
