[2019] Why is the new dodge animation basically just dodging with heavy armor?

Hey @blunadz6196, the dodge-roll is currently working as intended, however, we’ll be monitoring feedback as players get more accustomed to it.

As per the patch notes:

• Dodge now has 2 components, a dodge move and dodge settle. Agility affects how fast dodge settle is played; as in the more agility, you have the faster the character can act after a dodge.
• In addition to this, the dodges have been uniformed in length and the animation updated to a roll.
