Is it a bug that asura’s dont have the blur effect while dodging or is it intended because we do flips?

it was intended. we are to small and really dont need it cuz our dodge looks like it covers a bigger area than the other races cuz of our size.

Norn “cows” go moot.

The only thing I don’t like, from a PVP perspective, about the asura dodge vs other races is how it is much easier to identify when an asura is dodging.

The blur animation can VERY easily be lost in the mess of group PvP combat, while seeing an asura cartwheel can be identified VERY easily, and tallied up so people have a much easier time judging when you’re low on endurance.

The smaller size of asura really isn’t an issue at all, especially with tab targeting. I would personally prefer that all thieves had the same dodge blur. Or if people prefer the cartwheel for purely cosmetic reasons, give them(or SELL them) an option for that.

It’s a very minor disadvantage that is only going to be exploited by the most hardcore of PVPers, but there it is.

No, hardcore PvPers will perfectly learn dodge animation of every class, so it won’t be even a slightest problem.

I actually like the flip. If you dodge forward through someone, it can actually look a lot like the startup for LDB, so you can use it as a fakeout unless they’re really on the ball.
