Bear roll animation

Hello everyone,

It seems there's a critical visual bug in the druid reveal trailer. Indeed, while bear form it seems that the dodge roll action takes the form of a dash instead of the iconic roll that was promised in the first druid reveal video eons ago.

I can conceive some people might find it too "silly" or "unrealistic" for their fantasy game somehow in order to justify changing to a dash, but at least consider adding a toggle option to get the old animation.

I mean, it's there, the files are there, the animation work has already been done, it costs nothing, just let us have a bear rolling around while vaporizing maps, come on.

Cheers

Jonathan said in an interview that the dodge animations for the shapeshifting have been a challenge. I am not in the field so i cant judge that. But i agree that it is very sad not to get the bear roll as it was intended originally. Would be great if they get back to it at a later state and add it for future patches.

I think it was it that original reveal video that he said this but manifestly they managed to do it. And that was put in comparison with D4's druid lame animations so it was a full win. I don't understand why they'd remove it.

for bear dodge roll they should just have the bear morph back into human form for the roll to then shift back. tbh that makes sense to dodge and would look sick

Please no!! We want the bear to roll!

Morphing back to human would be exactly the D4 problem lol.

Yeah, we need the bear roll, make it a MTX if you have to !
