[Suggestion] Parry abilities of melee builds

12 votes

Parry ability of melee builds and/or items/talents for a more reliable form of CC. (traps, the higher chance of stun, slow with poison tipped spear? and so on)

We know you can be smart choosing the right clothing, food buffs, health talents, but I still see stats on clothing that looks to be something that needs maintenance in a live version of Icarus. But I do not see any form of parry function in the keybindings. A good parry function can be a way to mitigate some incoming damage to make it more fun to spec into this type of three. Don't want to build 10 spikes like I'm playing a modern Fortnite

There is no reason to use spears currently. Bows have more dps, without a ridiculously unreliable UI, and better buffs and debuff talents. Spears were designed as a defensive weapon. They should protect you from a charge and do knock back. They should make you, with skill, invulnerable from a single attacker.
