Those who excel at Dodging are rather difficult to hit. The dodge skill is central to defensive combat. Every attack of which a character is aware can be thwarted with a successful Dodge or Parry check.
Difficulty
Typically, dodge attempts are opposed, and the DL will be that of the attack coming at the defending character. The GM can institute a DL for a task that has no opposed roll, for instance, getting out of the way of a collapsing ceiling beam.
Opposed Rolls
Dodge rolls are most often in direct opposition to Attack Rolls to determine damage dealt.
Retry
Dodge attempts cannot be retried without the expenditure of a fate point.
