Parrying
Skill details:
- Your Parrying skill is checked automatically each time you attempt block an attack with a shield.
- As your skill raises, your chance of blocking an opponent with your shield increases.
- At a very very high skill you have the chance of blocking spells with your shield.
- Be sure to remember to keep your shield and armour repaired by a blacksmith. Your friendly neighborhood blacksmith will be able to use his arms lore to verify how much your shield and armour are damaged.
- Parrying cannot be trained up to 30 skill by the use of dummy or archery butte.
Skill usage:
I recommend
to make combat easier to have this option unchecked:
"Hold down TAB key for combat, instead of tapping it to toggle combat
mode" If it is unchecked then TAB acts like a toggle for combat turning
it
on or off so you don't have to hold down the key durring combat.
