Need some advice on Melds

go Parry if you want to feel slightly safer (some would argue it's useless)

I don't think you seriously get how Parry works, you want to rely on something as RNG that MAY or not block hits, more often big hits we are talking about (because CDs are there for a reason), horrible scaling, 20% flat even if you have 1k Parry IF attacked, gets checks from BLOCK first if you are PLD, Not any useful when you become OT due to some tank swap mechanics. Times to times again, Parry is just underwhelming to get if you can have other alternatives.
