Main / Skills / Fighting / Defensive fighting

Defensive fighting increases your parry chance and so prevents you from getting hit too much, but also lowers your attack speed and so the chance that you hit your enemy. Defensive fighting is best used with a sword as these weapons have a high parry change and possibly a shield to increase the blocking chance even further.

When fighting an animal with a group, the fighter taking the damage (the tank) usually uses defensive fighting to minimize injury, while the other players use normal or aggressive mode.

Defensive mode has no defense movement penalty for running around.
