Why Avoid Parry?

[Syzygian]

Can someone please explain to me why anyone wanting to find value or potential value in defensive secondaries for tanks is consistently met with these absurd straw man arguments suggesting that they are trying to abolish tanks' ability to dps completely?

Most of these arguments are moot anyway as you have to have full sets of asavage/upgraded eso/diadem gear to choose from in order to have 0 parry on your character and finally be branded a good player. /s

And at that point you've cleared all that content and the extra dps is merely bragging rights. Its impossible to avoid parry in progression so bickering about whether or not to stack it is pointless. Just make sure you have the vit to survive and the most str that you can muster.
