We have Braham, a norn, who is the son of the last Dolyak Shaman, Borje the Sun Chaser.
Wait wait, Son of the last Dolyak Shaman? Wasn't Forgal also the son of the last dolyak shaman? Braham and Forgal were brothers? WTF MY HEADDDDDDDD

Now, what you mention about Mesmers, Engi's, and Ele's is true--they have decent sources of damage negation. But not dodging.
Not really sure why you just said that... Ele right now is like, the dodgiest class after thief. Vigor on crit and Vigor on cantrip use. Not hard to find myself having 1m vigors in fights. Coupled with the damage mitigation, 80% of the time I'm dodging for evasive arcana's effect rather than to avoid attacks
.To OP:
But yeah, thieves have the best dodging potential, even without vigor. You just have to start using the built in evades from weapons effectively. Felince grace comes to mind the most, that trait is incredible.
Withdraw traited is a dodge + vigor, that's perfectly enough for a thief to heal up, avoid being hit again. They key is to have some boon duration.
Also, SB 3 is nuts, especially in PvP. dodging while crippling is awesome, and you can even shoot it while running from your enemy.
