Combat Roll/Dodge Dexterity Skill?
|
Hello all, first of all, I would like to say that this game is absolutely incredible. I love the currency items, skill items etc and find it a lot more fun than most ARPG's I've played. That being said, I would like to see the inclusion of a Combat Roll or some sort of tumble as a dexterity skill. I love the ranger, and all of the bow skills are awesome. The only problem is that she's relatively squishy, and proficiency in combat comes from smart positioning. She's not like a Witch where you can fireball a certain place or firestorm a certain area and not exactly worry about the position your character is at. You can still focus a certain target with intelligence skills on hand. Taking out a certain mob with the Ranger like the necromancer is useful as well, but its hard to target if other mobs are in the way blocking or you are out of mana to use Rain of Arrows. A combat roll would be extremely useful to position myself better to take out what i want, rather than moving regularly. Does anyone else feel like this would be a great addition to the game? I already love playing the ranger but I feel like this is the only thing missing that would make her truly great.

You already have several options in the form of Leap Slam, Whirling Blades, Flicker Strike, and Phase Run. Alternatively you could use Frost Wall or a Spell Totem with Summon Skeletons.

Phase run is the only skill I see that would work with me, the other ones require that I have a melee weapon equipped, and I always use a bow. Phase run isn't exactly what I'm looking for either, I would like something that I could quickly roll or dodge to any position that I choose in a close proximity. Does that seem fair? I feel as though it would be extremely helpful to a ranger as smart positioning is key.

The Demon Hunter backflip from D3 comes to mind. I like the idea.

Whirling Blades is going to become your best friend.

" IT would be good...if it worked with a bow. |

" This is exactly what I had in mind too, maybe something like his Vault ability too. I would absolutely adore the ranger if this were added. |

I'd like something like Vayne's tumble from League of Legends: roll a short distance away and increase your physical damage by 80% until an enemy is hit (or for 3 seconds).
