Quick dodge weirdness

Sometimes while chasing a mob, quick dodge would execute without making me stop momentarily. Othertimes it would, sidestep definitely did.

Whatever the intended behaviour, it's erratic currently?

I am not exactly sure I understand the problem, but.

If you queue an attack against a target you will enter pursuit mode, and pursue the target until you hit it.

If you are in pursuit mode, and press to add a block, you will remain in pursuit mode, and the block will execute without stopping you.

If you are not in pursuit mode, and add a block, you will be stopped.

This is more or less intended behavior. Are you experiencing something apart from this?

Ah, so pursuit has to be on to allow for block moves while moving.
W3 to W6 - Blockland. Special mentions: New Avalon, Tarn of Hotdog, Red October.
W7 - Elvenia, til we all got lazy.
W8 - Cult of R'lyeh, til the deeps called us back.
W9 - Tartarus, til death/wizards came for the land itself.
W10 - ???, ruined and forgotten.

No I could see that explaining things. Probably broke pursuit mode in order to evade an obstacle and then toggled block.

Not exactly intuitive, but it makes sense with an explanation :)

Resolved, then. Locking.
