Parry Notes & Trivia

  • This skill is incredibly powerful when maxed out. Pretty much any melee attack can be parried, including boss' attacks. The skill's parry window stays active for the entire duration of the initial swing, and the ability to apply stun means it also benefits from Execution.

      This is actually a ridiculously useful skill to have, and maxing its level gives you a pretty wide window for blocking attacks with the Parry, not to mention it chains with Execution for even more damage. Quite handy to get and blocks attacks you wouldn't THINK it would too.
