PARRY
This skill allows you to parry some of your opponents attacks. It is a passive skill, which is used automatically. The more strength and dexterity you have, the greater chance of success you will see with this skill. Also, if you are wielding you will get a bonus to your chance of success. If you are also dual wielding, you will get an additional bonus as well.
The Improved Parry skill will increase your chance of parrying.
