The House of Pain Gameplay - Jump Around!

Jumping around like youre in a House of Pain video to avoid attacks needs to cost stamina. Maybe not as much as roll dodge or block, but it needs to come at a cost.

Roll dodge and block, both designed to mitigate dmg and/or avoid attacks both cost substantial stamina. Why would "Jump Around" be any different?

    Becaus you don´t avoid or mitigate damage by jumping...........

    Im not an advocate of tab targeting but with 'skill' based targeting one does avoid dmg by 'jumping around' like a rabid rabbit.

    Lol come on... it's not oblivion. If you can't target someone because they are moving around, I gotta say that's your problem.

    Actually yeah a jumping target does cause some attacks to occasionally fail, gap closers for example. But most people jump for momentum to move faster over pools of snare juice.

    Figured as much. So you would have no issue with it costing some stamina since it is a viable avoidance tactic? I mean, youre skilled enough to work those 75 jumps into your 'rotation', right?

    Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

    I was born with the wrong sign
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy
    I took the wrong road
    That led to the wrong tendencies
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
    On the wrong day of the wrong week
    Used the wrong method with the wrong technique

    Nope.

    Jumping in this game is necessary over terrain and on some areas.

    Blocking is necessary, should it be free?
    Jumping was never intended to be a 'dodge' and I do not see how a minimal charge for use would affect gameplay outside of the rabid jumpers in PVP.

    Yeah I could do it, just have to let me pause so I can drink like 20 10pt stamina pots and after you hit me I get to pause again and eat 50 cheese wheels
