Light Rolls in Heavy Armor?

It seems if I get staggered twice (not 100% sure if this is the cause, as sometimes it doesn’t work) in quick succession I can perform a light dodge in heavy. Is this an intended mechanic?

I’ve experienced this as well multiple times in PVE, not intentionally replicating it either, I think its a hidden mechanic they added.

I’d hope not, seems silly. As a PVP oriented player this makes heavy even more busted for melee than it already is. (Edit) Also happens in medium armor**

I managed to get a recording of what you’re talking about. I tried to search for this after doing it a few times. I think it’s caused by getting hit a second time after being staggered by a heavy attack.

This is not a bug its an ingame mechanic. It was originally in the game because of stagger. they used to have a combat system like other action rpgs so this was in place so if you got staggered you werent stunlocked, you can roll out after getting hit a couple times, not really sure why its still in the game though since stagger was removed and is only on a handful of abilities.

im pretty sure it was, since it was in the game since alpha lol.

This is the answer.

You will notice it also did not cost stamina. It’s a free roll to get out of stun lock situations.
