      Doesn't seem to roll twice on targets if you have advantage or the target as an effect which grants attackers advantage.

      • It's good to note that this Action doesn't proc the enemies Attack of Opportunity. I've used it many times to escape fatal damage as a repositioning spell. What's great is that you don't need a target to hit in order to dash as well! So you can use it aggressively as well by targeting the ground, saving tons of movement for the turn!
