Parry

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

Parry

Post by Anime Sword Fighter »

  • Parry now gives the equivalent of the AC bonus as one gets from Tumble, but the two do not stack. The higher of the Tumble or Parry AC bonus is what is used to the final AC. (+1 every five hard ranks in the skill)
  • When in Parry mode, double 1.5 rounded down the AC is applied to the PC of what the original AC bonus from Parry was. (30 ranks = 6 AC, PC will get 12 9 AC total from Parry when in Parry mode)
Why?

This would reduce the 'need' to dip into a class with Tumble to be an effective tank for that extra AC that is known to be a notorious reason people dip into Rogue, Bard, or Monk for. This allows for more classes to have that availability (and even more) at the cost of having to stay in the Parry mode, which is known for being less than useful currently.
