Vindi bug since release makes Pvp/Wvw unplayable

[Sen.5728]

Since release of EoD there has been a very annoying bug with Vindicator, whenver you dodge it applies confusion damage to you. This does not happen to other dodges. Lately, with berserkers taking over WvW/PvP the gamemodes are borderline unplayable, don't even let me mention mesmer. Lol. Also, whenever a daze ends during the dodge the dodge gets cancelled and you are locked in animation unable to act. This happens a lot during the Berserker Mace F1 skill. At this point its unacceptable and needs go get fixed ASAP. Vindi really needs some love lately because we have it very rough with this current meta.

sadly it isn't a bug. It is because vindicator dodge us more considered as an ability because it gives big benefits, like damage or healing and other effects which dodges don't have. Yes other classes and rev has some traits related with dodge, but these are minimal. The vindicator traitline changing normal dodge, makes it no longer minimal.

That's how I seem to understand it atleast

Swapping legends with revenant and swapping attunements with elementalist proc it as well. Been in the game a long time. Its just spaghetti code tied to traits that fire off "skills" tied to a class mechanics... its real fun.

Vindi leap is not a dodge. It's an offensive attack or defensive heal thus an ability to use hence why it doesn't get a burst of speed when used either unlike other dodges. It just gets an evasion as apart of its function. Vindi dodge is more or less Nomad's Advance and Battle Dance and GS phantom onslaught as well if you use greatsword in your kit.
