Guild Wars 2

A lot of times when I press dodge, my character just rolls on the same spot. I am not being controlled as I have paid special attention to that in testing this.
This happens on a level ground without any visible rocks, roots or similar obstacles.
Is it a bug or a lag?

Could I get some official response on this official forum, please?

You’re probably encountering this issue.

No, my character actually does a roll, but it is on the same spot he is standing in. No control on me, no visual obstacles, I loose one dodge worth of endurance, but I am still standing in front of my enemy.
It would really be nice to get some official response so I know if I am doing something wrong or should I just wait for a game update.

Fairly certain that’s the same issue. In my reproduction attempts, depending on how I go about it, sometimes the roll animation will play fully.

This had been driving me nuts, but it makes sense that if it is the bug you reported earlier thieves would experience it more often with the frequent dagger attacks.

Thanks again for going to the effort to repo it.

Maybe it’s a warrior thing. Use of heavy armor or the fact that my character is just simply clumsy. But then I would like to have an option to crack him on the head or send him to some acrobatics school.
But in either case, it would be nice if we could at least get some sort of official response. I can see they are active on this forum or are those just forum mods that have no option to help us?
