It is not a rank bonus but an "evasion defense factor" multiplier which is your score considering skill, reflex, status, etc. So basically the more evasion you have, the more effective evasion you utilize (via stance), and the amount of mana you pump into the spell will result in improved utility from PFE.

Description: The Protection from Evil spell defends the faithful against the unholy touch of the Undead. It will also attempt to repel various varieties of magic including Necromancy, Sorcery, and all that employed by otherwise cursed or Undead beings. While not evil, attacks with origins in Holy magic or by minions of the dark gods are also buffered by this spell's pattern. Those with advanced skill in Primary Magic may find themselves able to cast this spell at their group, affecting all nearby with added difficulty. Depending on how skilled you are, the strength of the spell may be lessened compared to a singular weave of the pattern.

The strength of any singular weave of the spell is rooted in one's Primary Magic skill, with extra power simply lengthening its duration.
