Block and Parry

Well, i guess it's just me.
But I have never got it into my head how they can make players able to block, without a shield. Parry sure, like single hits but never ever anything like magic projectiles or arrows.

    I hear ya, but lets face it, the game is hardly realistic is it?

    greatsword could be big enough that u can use both hands on both ends to block something equaly big....

    staff can have magical properties that can block stronger than a piece of wood does....

    dual-wields.... you get the idea.

    None should be as effective as an actual shield, but i see it happening.

    Then again, i could walking next to a fire-breathing horse trying to get demons ported from another dimension off my tail and everything as normal as day.

    Oh trust me dude, I wish it was, or even remotely on the same universe as realism.

    Could get flamed here, but shrugs, I don`t care, pre 1.6 was the time of harry potters with staffs and mainly bathrobes, and my preferred way of playing, stamina was regarded as noobish.
    And to really venture forth into utterly fantastical realms, a LA staff user could be nigh on unkillable due to unbelievable game mechanics, anyways rant over....

    If the game even gets close to some kind of believable realism, then I will probably be dead of old age or at least gave up on the game long before lol
