    It doesn't say Parry rate but Parry = Parry Rate. It's the same thing.
    I'm going to have to disagree here, if it (Parry and block) were the same, why would all tool tips differentiate? Why wouldn't Warrior be able to "Block" if the two are the same?

    Ook, So we only get PV (Parry Value) from strength, RAW? That's terrifying. And no, Parry and Block are separate statistics determined from strength and values from gear. Block is not Parry. It is a different statistic. otherwise Why would a Gladiator be able to do both?
