Parry Rate

[Grekumah]

I have a question about it (since I'm leveling RUN next) is this a flat +5% parry rate or is it a 5% increase to the parry rate value we currently have?

This is a 5% increase to your current parry rate.

Another example is with the job ability Battuta. This gives a 40% increase to your base parry rate, and with each merit point upgrade into this ability it increases in 4% increments.

Additionally, the effect from the job ability Battuta and the job trait Inquartata aren’t determined by the enemies’ strength, but applied directly as a percentage. (In cases where you see "Parry skill" and "Parry skill +", these values will change depending on an enemies’ strength.)
