[Slayer] Dual Wield Parry Rate

Post#1 » Sun Jun 28, 2020 12:52 am

Hi,

Background:
i am playing a slayer and recently i was thinking about build possibilities etc.
Therefore i asked a lot of people different questions and what i picked up from a lot of them was.:
Using dual wield weapons gives 10% parry rate.
Because i was playing 2h since i dropped the 1st one at level 2 and never switched i thought, NICE! i want 10% parry every day over the bigger hits with my 2h weapon.
I am level 20 now and i have 2 lvl 20 Scout's Emblem 1h hammers equipped. But they do not influence my parry rate whatsoever.

Question:
So my question is why not? WHere do people get the information from that wielding two weapons gives a higher parry rate?
I again, asked several people ingame and no one give a concrete answer, it was always answers like: i think, i believe, probably or maybe this and that.

TLDR:
I heared using dual wield weapons gives me +10% parry chance, but it does not, why?

2H weapons have a hidden 10% block bypass. DW has 10% parry. Not sure why its not working for you. Bugged maybe? .getstats not working?

Okay okay now i get it. yeah it does give me 10% more parry.
So the .getstats do not get added on the Character screen?
