So, something I was slightly disappointed about was the fact that Dodge Reflexes don’t have a proper naming thing.

So uh…

Maybe we change that?

Issues with this idea, however; Dodge Reflexes will be commonly spammed, whether for mobility or for actual dodging. That’s constant flooding of the chat with these moves. So, as a fix for this, perhaps they’d only show above your head? I dunno. Seems like a simple fix. And then if you shut off move names, it’ll remove them entirely.

Anyways, the naming process is simple.

Similar to my last suggestion, it would be accessed by clicking the Dodge Reflex icon in your Info Menu.
DR

From here, it’d open up a menu similar to your spell naming.

The first dropdown would probably include stuff like “Flash Step,” or if we’re feeling like referencing something, “Ultra Instinct.” Stuff like that.

The second one would be entirely dependent on your dodge reflex. Since mine is Vitality, it might include stuff like “Ekrix” or “Vitality.”

The last one would probably be other simple phrases, such as “Dash,” “Teleport,” “Blockade,” etc, depending on the type of Dodge Reflex you have, whether it be an Afterimage, Ekrix, whatever-the-weapons-one-was, Burst, Teleport, or Barrier.

And yeah, that’s it.

I just find this fun, and a spot where it’ll be easy to fit references if you wanted to.

Is this needed? No. Do people want this? Probably not. But I think it’d be fun. So I suggested it. That’s what this place is for.

(obviously this naming scheme wouldn’t apply to actual dashing. Just dodges.)

nah im good

Personally I don’t think it’s necessary, you’re just dashing

Yeah, didn’t think it’d be that popular of an idea. Just thought I’d throw it out regardless cause I was bored.

And then there’s the fact that it’d probably attract more weebs than the game already has trying to be Goku with like, blue Lightning Teleport Dodge Reflexes going “Ultra Instinct: Lightning Dash!”

idk its kinda dumb to yell while dodging

Animes do it lmao, so I dunno.

Plus, it’s dumb to yell while shooting a gun but like…

“PIERCING SHOT!”

“302 DAMAGE”-ish I don’t remember.

But yeah, good point regardless

i hate when anything spammable has a name that appear in the chat when used, and this is definitely one of them
but at the very least its some sort of warning when you attack. doesnt make any sense when dodging tho

To be fair its almost dumber to yell the attack you’re about to do (video game logic :nod:)

Try dodging the attacks instead of dodging common sense…

(Joke, ily)

no one’s going to name their dodge.

Nah its a learned ability like high jumping or dashing, that’s why it’s a passive ability and not an actual move, therefore no name. Decent idea but not how it’s implemented in the game and probably won’t be changed.

its not a spell/technique, theres no reason for it to have a speech bubble above your character and show up in chat logs

My chat already is flooded with “spring” and “step” from just using magic leaps :sob:
