Over 700 parry on 250 set.
maybe i see that 20% parry every 1/17 hits on War(maybe PLD blocks more bcuz of shield).

because of the shield he is actually parrying less often.

I still doubt that parry doesn't affect block rate, since the tooltip actually says so.

of course not. but blocking is calculated before parry. so you get hit. it calculates the block and decided: yes, this is a block. then he don't even start to calculate the parry. the more often you block the less often you can parry.

It doesn't matter. You don't want specifically to "parry", you want to reduce the incoming damage. If you block, it's only better.
And PLD reduces more hits in the end.

I seen this new set and the first thing that came to mind is SE might be changing parry sooner then we think.

It's possible, but something to keep in mind is this is the gear we'll be going into the new expansion with so they could easily just do the change w/ 4.0.

I personally feel Parry should become an important stat for say DRK and War, while Blocking needs to become more important for PLD.

Is this confirmed?

I know we finished the crummy Alexander raid, but we're still missing one of the Triad and one 24-man raid. Further, A Realm Reborn ended on 2.5, not 2.4. That would imply to me that we have at least one more set of weapons (Triad Ex) and one more gear-set (24-man raid armour). That's also not including the last installment of the Relic Weapon, as well. Savage armour/tome upgrades will probably still be BiS by the end, but the secondary stats on the 24-man raid set might make some of those pieces the preferred choice. It would depend greatly on how/when SE changes the Parry stat.
