Dodgingis one of the abilities that has been tweaked inThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, so players might be wondering how to unlock this ability and how to use it efficiently in combat.
For those nimble fighters who prefer Thieves, Rogues,Assassins, Battlemages, Rangers, and Witchhunters, Dodging is key to survival. In Cyrodiil, they will encounter thousands of enemies that can send them to an early grave with just a swing of their weapon or a snap of their fangs. So, here’s how to unlock the Dodge Ability and how to use it inOblivion Remastered.
How To Unlock The Dodge Ability In Oblivion Remastered
To unlock theDodge Abilityas soon as possible inThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered,players need to level up theirAcrobatics Skilluntil they reachlevel 25. Doing so might be easier than they think, as abilities from level 1 to 25 can be leveled quite fast.
One of the things players can do to accomplish this isto jump aroundCyrodiil for a while: As silly as this might sound, it will start to grant them experience in Acrobatics, and this will eventually lead to them unlocking the Dodge Ability.
Players who have unlocked this ability will receive a message on their screens notifying them about their new ability, which is a perk from the Acrobatics Skill and is always active from the moment they unlock it.
Dodgewas previously unlockable at level 50of Acrobatics (Journeyman), butOblivion Remasteredhas changed that. Now players are able to use this ability Early (Apprentice level). It makes more sense to give players the ability to dodge much earlier during the adventure, since they need it the most when they’re squishy and weak.
How To Dodge In The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered
To dodge in Oblivion Remastered, players need to press theBlock Buttonand theJump Button, and any of the directional buttons (keys or stick). Dodging is especially useful to deal with enemies like Scamps, and other Daedra who use Spells and projectiles all the time. However, it loses effectivenesswhile exploring dungeonssince dodging in enclosed spaces might not yield good results, to always be careful not to be cornered.
Here’s the right combination ofcommandsto use the dodge ability inOblivion Remasteredfor PC, Xbox, and PS:
Remember that dodging consumes Stamina (Fatigue) each time players perform this action, and dodging too much will also increase Fatigue levels, so be careful not to overuse this ability.
Of course, players can also increase their Stamina levelsby increasing their Strength, Willpower, and Agility, and the more they do so, the more times they will be able to dodge more times without exhausting themselves.
