Thread: We need a new dodge animation for while running

I'd personally like to see some kind of John Woo dive and roll combo that kept us moving at normal speed while still shooting. Even a 5% chance of that happening with every successful Dodge would be fine with me.


The most logical scenario, though,is that there would simply be no Dodge animation while moving and we'd just get a *You Dodge!* indicator in the combat log.

We have one for kneeling, we have one for prone, and we have one for standing. The problem is that the one for Standing is fired while running! We either need one for running, or it needs to no longerdisplay while on the move.

Yes this is extremely important. Ipassed it along to the Devs and the Fencers made it one of their "Top 5 Issues" so you may see a response from the Devs to them at some point.

Well, the easiest solution is just to ditch the animation at all if we're moving. However, it would be cool go jump up and twist in the air while dodging incoming fire.
