Renewed Request - Please Delete Parry from the game

[Brannigan]

If they want parry to be sought out they need to
1) add passive mitigation to it. It still won't be great, but at least it will have a place.
2) greatly increase the mitigation of parry procs.
or
3) add more traits for every tank that rely on parry to be useful

Easy brainless additions for 3 would be stuff like chance to gain Wrath on parry, chance to gain Sheltron effect on parry, increased damage dealt after parry, eliminates MP cost of Dark Arts after parry, parry also increases accuracy or crit, instant cast Clemency after parry, etc. Stuff that is REALLY good if you're tanking because you can't access it if you're not. Really, it's just dumb that they made this stat worse AND more boring (doesn't get stronger from STR anymore) while simultaneously making crit better (increases crit power too).

If it stays like it is now into 4.0 then, yeah, you might as well delete it since anything it's attached to instantly becomes the bad piece of its item level tier.
