Category:Movement actions

Movement actions are actions that can alter movement speed of the user or allies, or change the position of a player. While some actions only affect movement or positions, most movement actions have additional effects.

Gap closers

Gap closers are movement actions that reduce the distance between a user and a target (usually an enemy) to bring the user within melee range to the target. Some gap closers will bring the user to an object they have summoned instead of an ally/enemy target. If the user is already within the hitbox of the target, the user's position will not be changed. The following PvE actions are designed as gap closers:
