Unfortunately all you'll really find on the subject is a debate, as others have said while parrying is a source of damage mitigation it only works on direct physical damage, it becomes completely useless vs mobs that do not have physical attacks (T2, ultima, avatar laser shower), and vs physical damage is unreliable at best. You will always be dealing damage while you will not always benefit from an increased parry rate, if it's a parry that stands between you and kissing the floor, you'll be looking at your healers, not the deities of RNG.
