Talk:Blocking

This page lists Parrying as *blocking with the listed angle based on your weapon*, but elsewhere it (and other sites) list Parrying as a Timed Block that automatically staggers the attacker
 * The terminology of the game is a bit loose as there are no official terms(at least for Vermintide 2). From what we know "Parry" is blocking with the block/push angle, it is based on the weapon base angle and additional angle bonuses from Traits and class Talents, this gives a 50% reduction from the cost of a block. Blocking from an angle beyond that will use x2 of the cost of a block. There is an additional mechanic called "Timed block" or "Perfect block" which means "pressing the block button at the right time before being hit". Just as it sounds, this mechanic is very vague and not many know to use it reliably.
 * Also there is a trait called "Parry": Timed blocks reduce stamina cost by 100%.


 * Hope this helps. ~DeGreed
