Can you parry an arrow in pvp?

So an archer fires an arrow at my character - I have 120 parry for example - can I parry that arrow? If I have a shield does it increase my chance of parrying that arrow?

Back when I used to pvp there were no such things as pvp archers so I dont know the answer.

I think you can yes!

If not then talk to Olk Samsca about his amazing ability to miss everyone when shooting with his 120 archery

Re: Can you parry an arrow in pvp?

Its a bushido move that allows you to 'evade' blows, the book says spells & dragon breath, but it covers everything!

Your char say *evades* above you with every successful evade!

Re: Can you parry an arrow in pvp?

Yes you can parry an arrow.

Carrying a shield increases the chance, as long as you don't have Bushido.

If you have Bushido, it's best to use 2 handed weapons.

Ned pretty much summed up Evasion, costs 10 mana to cast and it lasts for somewhere around 4-7 seconds (Tactics and Anatomy give the timer a boost). Oh, and when it's said it can evade everything, that means all types of damage/curses, but it doesn't mean you will evade everything, there still the opportunity to get hit.
