 Parry (Sn: 219) (Skill)

Help Parry

Syntax:  Automatic.

The dodge failed, and that axe is falling towards your head at unbelievable
speed?  Best try to parry it.  Parry is very useful for deflecting attacks
that would otherwise hit you.

Parry may be used while fighting unarmed; however, the damage will only be
reduced, not deflected completely.  The best use of parry occurs when the
defending target is skilled in both his and his attacker's weapons.  Also,
suffering from blindness severely inhibits the ability to parry.

Primary-class warriors will find more benefit from this training compared
to other classes, but it will never be completely ineffective.

Primary Stats: Strength, Dexterity.
Affected By  : Luck.
