    [Clarification] Parry & Block

    I was wondering if we could get some further insight into this as the tooltip for STR still states that it affects parry & block strength, and DEX states that it aids in parry & block rate.

Blocks percentages from what I've read correlates to the shield type and from what I've done with my lvl 50 pld (enemy level/gear level) as I was getting 30% block mitigation on lvl52 enemies using dreadwyrm shield whereas others were stating a lesser percentage with sane types of shield s

    Parry is no longer affected by STR. flat 20% parry stat will only increase rate not amount.
    I believe block is also no longer affected, but the % can changed based on the shield.
