How Do I use the Rogue's Uncanny Dodge Class Feat? (self.baldurs_gate_3)

So I’m familiar with how it works in 5e and how to use it in 5e dnd, but I don’t understand when or how I use it in BG3.

Is there supposed to be a prompt when I take damage to use my reaction (like whether to use divine smite)? I haven’t seen anything like that yet, but maybe I’m misunderstanding how it works in BG3.

It appears as a passive ability in my character sheet.

Any insight (checks) would be appreciated.

It doesn’t appear in the reactions list (oppo attack, sneak attack, and sneak attack (crit) are listed).

I put the passive ability on my hotbar. When it’s on my bar its tooltip says “togglable passive feature”. Activating it puts a circle around it, and it turns off after taking a hit it seems.

Oh wow so it’s one of those. The togglable passives aren’t really on my radar so I’m glad you could figure it out!
