While warriors wear various types of armor to absorb their opponent's strikes, most agree that it is better not to be hit in the first place. Unfortunately, this can be a bit of a trade-off, as the heavier the armor, the harder it is to dodge blows while wearing it. It's also worth noting that successfully dodging an attack can leave an opponent off-balance and vulnerable to a counter attack. Each attack can be countered either by block or by dodge, never both at the same time. Therefore, most warriors choose to concentrate on one of these defensive skills. |

Dodge is one of the skills in The Age of Decadence.
While warriors wear various types of armor to absorb their opponent's strikes, most agree that it is better not to be hit in the first place. Unfortunately, this can be a bit of a trade-off, as the heavier the armor, the harder it is to dodge blows while wearing it. It's also worth noting that successfully dodging an attack can leave an opponent off-balance and vulnerable to a counter attack. Each attack can be countered either by block or by dodge, never both at the same time. Therefore, most warriors choose to concentrate on one of these defensive skills.
