Stamina Refresh Rate
PvP would go crazy, so no.
Why do you need to dodge every 3 seconds? You should not use dodges like they are candy. They should be used only sparingly.
It’s difficult to time a dodge for a evade to happen so I was hoping for more stamina to increase the opportunity. Maybe instead of more stamina there should be a attack indicator for targeted attacks as there is environmental attacks to assist with evading of targeted attacks.
You can Dodge every 3 seconds….once (twice if you are a properly speced Thief)

I assume it’s PvE related, since there already are indicators for devastating attacks…
PvP, hmm. Dunno if there ever be indicators for use of interuption or timed dodge.
I’m a casual PvE adventurer, I enjoy combat, adventure and helping, but not farming.
I rarely do PvP or Hard PvE, unless it’s organized.

There are already tells for enemies attacks. They all do not need to be so obvious that it becomes brainless to time dodges. The game is easy enough as it is.
Learn the tells better, then you’ll get better at timing your dodges to get the evade.
If you’re trying to do this for the daily (which is what I suspect) depending on your profession there may be options. Ranger, Mesmer and thief have weapons that have evades basically built into them.
For example using 2 on your sword on the mesmer will give you evades like crazy. Easy to get the daily that way.
Increase the refresh rate for stamina to that I can dodge ever 3 seconds. I believe combat would be better if the stamina refresh rate were faster.
It really is plenty already. My advice would to be look at your other tools. For example Warrior you have a block on primary mace, offhand sword, shield, and whirlwind is an evade. That gives you more options for avoiding attacks. Mesmer has Blurred Frenzy, or shatter4 for distortion if they need extra on top. Ele can use Mist Form or Obsidian Flesh (and whirlwind on FGS). Guard has Mace with a block, Focus blocks, Aegis, Shelter and Renewed Focus. That’s not even mentioning blinds that many professions have available.
If you find yourself still lacking, look into Sigils of Energy, this will allow you to get an extra dodge every 10s on weapon swap while in combat.
There are plenty of tools available you just may need to do a little more research and set yourself up.
Vigor increases the rate you regenerate stamina as well, do what you can to keep that up if you need it. Also there is some food that gives you increased stamina recharge rate, that may be worth looking into.

Dodges were intended to be a limited defensive resource, not something you can spam to avoid every attack thrown at you. Furthermore, endurance regeneration can be augmented by various buffs and traits; I suggest you work on a build that takes advantage of this, if that’s your strategy.
Managing dodges and endurance/vigor is part of the strategy of GW2’s combat system. You might as well be asking for twice the Power, or for every hit to be a critical hit.

If you’re just going to mindlessly spam evade ever 1.75 seconds anyway…
Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew. Thief with Shortbow 3 evade.
Just saying.
