Block/Parry/Disrupt/Dodge Positioning

Post#1 » Wed Jan 06, 2016 6:53 pm

So:
Block - Front and Sides
Parry - Front and Sides
Disrupt - 360 confirmed
Dodge - 360 confirmed

Correct?

I've been testing parry and it seems to me like the parry rate goes down when attacks are made to its side? I would like some confirmation on this because I can't be sure whether I'm just imagining stuff or its bugged or the mobs are position bugged or anything else.

As I remember, block and parry and dodge are from your front arc only, disrupt I have no idea.

I hope to receive confirmation from the devs directly than relying on an article made for live. Things might have changed since then.

Dodge WAS frontal only, but got changed a few days back to be 360°. Parry and Block are both 180 as well yes.

Yes, Annaise posted in another thread that dodge was 360 degrees on official and a recent patch fixed this.

so if dodge/parry is 180 and I'm strafing sideways directly away from a chasing target, do I get block/parry or not?

Flip a coin. If heads, you get a parry/block check.

I know on Live when strafe you would block/parry same as facing melee/rdps 180.
I hope this also works like this in RoR cuz thats the whole point of strafing and proper tank positioning to prevent incoming cc.
