    I love the feel, when im under a flurry of attacks, and i can pop Deflect and hearing the sudden PINGPING PINGPINGPING PING

    Sooooooo satisfying

    need a nice 2 second long animation to go with all these new defenses now to make it epic,

    Shields jsut hold the shield in front of you, Parry maybe twirl your weapon for a sec (like at the end of doubleslash), Dodge maybe jsut quickly lean back and to the side a couple of times.

    I bet folks like @Sara Dreygon are gonna be stoked about parrying arrows AND bolt-spells

    Parry is essentially a weaker Block now. Shield users are gonna have doubletime defense and dual wield is certainly seeing a buff from this

    PvP archers may be sad about it tho. Piercing shot cand be blocked and parried @Chris i dunno if thats intended

    Is that supposed to read can or can't? If Piercing Shot can be blocked or parried then that's probably a bug.

    I could see blocked with a shield, but parried? Arrows should only be able to be dodged.

    With piercing shot, I could see it delivering partial damage.

    There description says that it ignores armor, so it most definitely should not be blockable.

    I can see it ignoring your armor (resist) but it shouldn't ignore your block skill when using a shield.

    Agreed, I was actually going to post this too. A shield that can not block an arrow? Cmon.
