Dodging is an essential combat mechanic alongside parry, block, and riposte. It allows you to create distance between you and your opponent during intense battles, offering the perfect opportunity to land critical attacks.
When you enter combat with enemies, you will notice some mechanics change, including the central icon shape. One of these changes is the jump/dodge function. During combat, you can’t jump; instead, pressing the jump button triggers a quick dodging move, allowing you to strafe rapidly. You can dodge by pressing:

How To Perform Perfect Dodge in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
While dodging helps you evade enemy attacks and create space, it consumes a bit of stamina. However, standard dodging may not work well against tough enemies, as you need to execute a perfect dodge to land critical strikes. To perform a perfect dodge, time your dodge precisely like a perfect block.
Watch out for the Shield icon on your screen when an enemy swings at you. The moment it appears, press the dodge button to execute a perfect dodge. This maneuver gives you a strategic advantage, allowing for a quick counterattack. However, mistiming or failing to execute a perfect dodge will leave you vulnerable, resulting in getting hit.
