View source for Evade

'''Evade''' allows all classes to swiftly move and evade an attack with the push of a button. This function is available right from level 1 of a character. It is not to be confused with [[Dodge]] which is a passive ability of all classes that is more subtle but can also be boosted.

The Evade function is indicated by a small foot icon next to the resource globe. In the example below it is bound to the spacebar key.  You can bind it to any key you wish.

Evade has a <span class='white'>cooldown</span> of 5 seconds but this can be reduced with skills and items and in some cases increased in return for other benefits.

== Evade and Obstacles ==
Evade does not allow players to pass through objects or obstacles they encounter. It is specifically a dodge mechanic.

Evade also does not break [[Crowd Control]] (CC).

Evade is a new mechanic for the Diablo series on PC but was available on the console version of Diablo 3.

== Gear that helps Evade ==

Rare, Legendary and Unique boots are the only piece of gear that comes with benefits to Evade.  They can be found with the following [[Affixes]]:

* +3 Max Evade Charges 
* Attacks reduce Evade's Cooldown by 0.8 seconds
* Evade Grants +50% Movement Speed for 1 second

Regular Cooldown stats such as "''10% Cooldown Reduction''" do not apply to Evade.
