Start with either strikes or projectile attacks since the rating system works against both. Use the entropy system which tracks your progress to prevent unlucky streaks, maxing out at 95% chance to dodge. Distance plays a big part now, since accuracy gets worse at range which is pretty nice for ranged builds.

The acrobatics keystone is worth considering, letting you dodge those annoying area attacks but cutting your evasion rating in half. Without it youre basically helpless against ground slams and similar stuff, so plan accordingly. Something to keep in mind though, pure evasion builds tend to struggle in harder content so maybe interesting to mix in some energy shield or block as backup.

For the best results stack your evasion rating high and keep a good distance from threats when possible. Dex-based characters naturally get more out of this since their gear and passive tree align well with evasion stats, but remember that even with perfect setup youll still get hit sometimes due to the 95% cap. Good tip is to watch your positioning carefully and always have a backup plan for when those big hits eventually connect.
