    The currently accepted theory is that Parry converts at 35 points to a percent, so 1000 points in Parry would convert to roughly +28.5% Parry rate. Natively, iirc, tanks have 5% Parry rate (don't quote me - might be 10%), so 1000 points in Parry should translate to a total of ~33.5% Parry.

    I have speculated that Parry behaves similar to Accuracy (really, that all stats do), such that different encounters have different coefficients to affect their effectiveness--but unfortunately I lack the data to investigate or confirm. If this were the case, 1000 parry could be ~+40% against the Curator in Fractal Continuum, but could only represent ~+20% against A8S. Mind, this is completely speculation, so I have zero confirmation; all I can say is that such a function would not surprise me in the least.
