Dodge roll

Dodge roll is a movement skill that is possessed by default on all characters. It does not require a skill gem slot, and has a dedicated keybind space by default. Holding the dodge roll button will cause your character to sprint.

Mechanics

• Dodge roll has no cooldown or cost by default.
• Dodge roll moves the player 3.7 metres in a direction.
• Dodge roll cannot be used to cross gaps or crossable terrain obstacles (e.g. small fences) or move between different elevations.
• Dodge roll reduces the player's character size to 0 units during the skill animation. This allows the user to roll through enemies if there is a small gap between them, but they can still get stuck if completely surrounded.
• Certain small monsters can get pushed away by the player while dodge rolling.
• The first half of the roll animation avoids damage (grants i-frames) from projectiles and non-AoE attacks, and can be used to cancel almost any animation except another roll.
• Rolling covers more initial distance but travels the same total distance as base movement speed (walking/running) over its entire duration. Roll speed is affected by movement speed. Compared to regular movement, it allows for quicker reactions against hazards but is not an overall speed boost.

• Modifiers to dodge roll distance (e.g. Surefooted SigilSurefooted Sigil
  Jade AmuletRequires Level 8+(10-15) to Dexterity+(40-60) to maximum Life
  +(5-15) to Dexterity
  +1 metre to Dodge Roll distance
  50% increased Evasion Rating if you've Dodge Rolled RecentlyNatural grace is born, not earned.) do not increase the time it takes to complete the dodge roll, but instead cause it to cover a larger distance in the same time. It is effectively a speed multiplier for dodge roll overall.

• Dodge roll's animation cannot be modified by skill speed. However, it is affected by action speed.
• Dodge roll will forcibly cancel most skills. Skills stop spending mana or other costs if cancelled.
• Rolling while shapeshifted will usually morph you out of the transformation, though this can be negated in some cases. Dodge roll does not revert shapeshift in towns.
  • Demon Form does not get reverted; instead, it replaces dodge roll with a dash.
