Blink ability? (and a bit of class advice)

[alexshiro]

Is there a good movement ability, like Torchlight 2's Frost Phase or good old Blink, somewhere on devotions or one of the classes?

I picked Demolitionist for my first class and there don't seem to be any here. I'm holding off on picking a second class, is that a big mistake?

Though needs to be targeted on an enemy and cannot be used on ranged weapons.

Otherwise Blitz (soldier) or Shadow Strike (Nightblade) both of which also need to target an enemy.

They are more for closing distances as opposed to teleporting away.

Holding off isn't a terrible idea since the early game is pretty chill but you shouldn't overthink it too much. As Matthew said, your best bet is a dash ability from nightblade or soldier but there aren't any blinks or teleport abilities.
Lucky for you, demolitionist works great with everyone.

I dunno, there seems to be a bit of grumbling about Necro/Demo synergy. I'm quite sure you can even brute-force that to work, though is more item dependent with certain conversion items.

Commando (Soldier + Demo) seems to be a poular choice for a lot of players as a first class. It is flexible and can be played in just about any way (shield, guns, caster, 2-hander, tanky, glass cannon).
