Default Using Warp in combat to evade attacks

Is it possible to use the Warp Advantage to dodge attacks in combat, and if so, how?

By RAW, you can just use it normally, see B98. To Warp instantly is at -10, though, so you'll either need to burn fatigue or have several levels of Reliable.

See also the Blink enhancement in Powers, which is cheaper than Reliable if all you want to do is dodge once in a while.

The description of Warp in Basic Set answers your question.
