R9 Standing Endurance

  I confirmed last night that the roll really does cost you. At Rank 8, my Stamina went from 110 (full) to 91 after the roll. So it would seem, as foreignreign pointed out, that the roll costs less as you rank it (and it is never without stamina cost).

  No, you don't.
  
  You get superarmor frames, which you would even have more of if you stayed on the ground.
  
  But the point of rolling back is to get out of the way so you don't take any more hits.
  
  And Though it does go more than one direction, the direction is set for you from the moment you are hit, and it usually is backward, so I wouldn't talk about him not having the skill.

  
  
  Can you take a video of yourself rolling other ways? I've still only managed to roll backwards.

  Land on your back, you raise your feet over your head and roll onto your feet.
  
  Land on your stomach, you immediately just stumble onto your feet and roll out running.
  
  Video is uploading now.
  
  Edit: Video Up.

  Well, that doesn't really help since you're still rolling away from the boss. It looks like you have to be hit from the side or back to land on your stomach, which would have been the same if you were hit from the front in terms of the location you're rolling towards. Still not really useful from my experience.

  The roll itself or the change from forwards/backwards roll?
  
  The change isn't useful, I'll admit, but its a detail to be remembered.
  The roll itself is quite useful, instead of having a boss wail on you, you can get some distance away from the boss.

  Totally agree with roll is useful moving you out of damage. And I usually want to roll out, instead of rolling back into the boss' incoming attack.
  
  They should add an ability to choose where you wish to roll.

  This. I want so many better effects :p
  This is what I hope to have:
  r5 DC: less stamina cost, or bigger smash range horizontal wise.
  r5 1KN: less stamina cost on poke, and/or faster poke rate (can just hold L for pokes)
  r5 SD: ability to normal attack/move faster after sd.
  r5 GF: bigger range, or faster initializing animation.
  r5 smash mastery: lower stamina cost. :p
  r9 battle respiration: regen stamina per second even when moving (like zeal enchant :p).
