Parry doesn't parry chops

Post by Chebermech »

From what I've tested multiple times, Parry works on Feigned Dodge, Left Hook, Low Blow, Punch and Steal Thunder, but not on Chop, basically only works against UA skills. I've tested with different values of MC and UA, with the same result. Is it intended?

Does the chop go straight through the parry? If an attack breaks the entire parry defense, then its useless.

This sounds odd. Can anyone else confirm this?

Doesn't work either way, and also when the unarmed attacks break the parry it still hits back.

In our spars chop bounces off the parry. You made b experience the event when you have. Defence up on Another character and the chop aggressor aggros after?

Parry did not block Chop when sparring, can confirm this bug.

Parry only blocks melee attacks, it does not return them. Parry only deals damage when hit by unarmed attacks, because if you punch a sword that's how it goes.

Working as intended, but will update the descriptive text to avoid confusion.
