Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 So it seems Parry has been weakened a lot in G3: with Parry of 10, my early game Guardian is getting a parry chance of around 20%. What it looks like is that the cheap cost of Parry as a skill is sort of misleading, because to get anything worthwhile you really need a lot of points in it: 10 is the new 4. But, if you put it like that, I guess it's okay. Or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Dolphin Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Parry is defiantly weaker. The first time I played I put a good number of points (12) into it thinking it would prevent me form getting killed, but discovered I was getting hit anyway. The times thereafter the only points that went into parry were what the canisters gave. Having used those 12 points in endurance, spell craft, and tool use was far more beneficial.

Easygoing Eyebeast VCH Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 At level 15 parry provides 30% chance of deflection. Parry may not totally prevent damage. But it does reduce damage significantly. While it might be annoying that most creatures still hit you, look at how many HPs they are taking off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Contra Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 As i have pointed out before; Yes, Parry is nerfed. Parry shpould be ignored alltogether unless you are playing as a Guardian, something i have never done so far since recent reports indicate that they suck nads.

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted May 12, 2005 Author Share Posted May 12, 2005 It wasn't really worthwhile for anyone but Guardians even in G2; the point is that even for Guardians, who can easily get really high Parry, it now seems a poor investment.
