Talking about dodging and shooting: You can dodge with mantis and shoot, but it pretty much requires you to retreat and enemy to chase you, or when you dance at the endge of fireing range (witch does not do you much good cause mantis is not frontloaded)
You can also attempt dodgeing aurora while moveing towards it, but once you get close can't dodge anymore.
Overall it is just bit hard, can't do big angle turns, and if you do you will waste dps...
If you just want dodging i have not noticed mantis being really significantly better at it... Dodging can be helpfull, can avoid some ACU/t2 pd/tank fire, but if they chase you and you just dodge it will be useless cause you can't run away while dodging
