Your ability to defend against a weapon is boosted by your weapon skill. Assassin are generally worse off trying to defend against someone using axes.
What about parry though? Do weapon skills effect parry at all? Just strength? For example, how good are assassin at parry axes?

Players with assassins that branched parry must be rare.  |

Having the weapon skill gives a bonus to parry them. Higher is better.
Parry gets bonuses from agility.
Assassins without parry will hardly ever parry chopping weapons.
Assassins with parry will do about as well as their skill+stat bonus. They don't have the chopping weapon skill to add further bonus.

That sounds like defense skill. I heard somewhere parry was strength based?

I've been noticing a parry here and there even though I don't have the parry skill branched yet. I didn't know that was possible, what would allow a charatcer to parry without the skill or is that normal and I never noticed it before? That's tied to your invisible defense skill, as is your chance to dodge and block with shields. Every class has had an innate chance to parry. Same with offense. With a high enough offense skill, one can land kicks, disarms, and bashes. Certainly not to any reliable degree without the skill itself in your list though. |
