What abilities does dodge-roll NOT evade?

Solariken

It seems like dodge-rolling is becoming much less effective across the board since there are so many single target abilities that seem to ignore it. The most frustrating of which for me are Concealed Weapon and Lotus Fan. Why ZOS!? Nightblades are freaking GODS already, they don't need to be able to do that.

Anyway, I'm sure there are some abilities that are intended to go through dodge-roll, and I'm hoping some of you can help me get a list together so I can develop a better strategy against certain enemy players. I'm listing some, like Lotus Fan, because although it's an AoE and should hit you during a roll anyway, nightblades still seem to be able to initiate the "charge" DURING your dodge-roll.

Here's the list so far:

Concealed Weapon
Lotus Fan (the targeted charge portion)
Toppling Charge
Soul Strike
Meteor
Radiant Destruction
?

and then I lol'ed

What about the other morph of lotus fan. Lotus fan is an AOE attack, and I don't think you can dodge roll any AOE attack.

Flash through shadows to the target and unleash a fan of knives, dealing 5 Magic Damage to all nearby enemies and 6 Magic Damage more over time.
Affected enemies also have their movement slowed by 60% for 6 seconds.

New Effect:
After teleporting, Deals damage and snares enemies in the area.

Dawnbreaker is an AoE. 10m radius, cone shape, wide angle (almost 180 degrees).

Curse

I know that the bomb can go off during a dodge-roll, but can Curse be applied to the target during the roll?

Only thing that comes to mind is siege only every thing else rolling can dodge ..... which is well stupid. Yea saved up my 250 ulti for what ?

More proof at how rolling and damage shields are the best defense in the game then actual defense (such as mitigation and resistance. )

Concealed Weapon does not go through dodge roll, it used too but not now. Lotus Fan does an AOE snare. You cannot avoid an AOE with a dodge roll if your still in range of it.
Toppling Charge is currently bugged as are many Templar abilities it's unavoidable.
The explosions from detonation (both morphs) and Curse are also undodgable.

I've been hearing unconfirmed rumors that Ambush is going through dodge roll too, but I'm on console so I can't see damage numbers to test myself. It's probably stemming from how infuriating Ambush spam is because of the mini stun + silence on all gap closers.

Velocious Curse and Degeneration can both be applied to a target mid dodge roll.

Ohh and I'm not sure since it's been a while since I've used either but don't Resto/Lightning heavy/channeled attacks both go through dodge?

I believe you are incorrect - on multiple occasions I have been spammed with Lotus Fan -> Concealed Weapon over and over while continually dodge-rolling.

I know the AoE from Lotus Fan should hit during dodge-roll. The problem is that they are able to initiate the charge during your dodge-roll, which makes the ability entirely unavoidable.

Any AoE, any curse, some above listed moves.

I believe a lot of it depends on when the attack was initiated vs when the dodge roll timer begins.

Not sure if Drain Power (Unmorphed) works.

No actually the "projectile" portion of Meteor cannot be dodged. You can block or reflect it though.

well Meteor is tricky, a nb can use cloak avoid the Meteor, the Meteor will no hit anything else a ground effect would be left, cloak will ensure that you doge the next hits for x seconds

Soris

You can dodge radiant destruction in the latest bug-release. Even while channelling.

Kas

you can dodge RD, concealed and meteor (a bit trick, only if you start the dodge when the projectile is visible, not if you dodge when you see the circle below your feet).

If you sure why you cannot dodge toppling but somehow it works that way (meanwhile you cannot hit a sprinting horse with manoeuvre with toppling when you come from behind...)

you cannot dodge all kinds of magicka/siege AoE
you cannot dodge all non-projectile spells (curse, entropy, undaunted taunt, etc)
you cannot dodge channels (soul assault, HA resto, HA lightning - but strangely RD...)
