> I'm thinking of beginning a warrior with hand-to-hand spec.. Can a beginning warrior parry with his bare hands with the reduced damage, or can you not parry until gaining the skill 'ironhands'. I recently started a felar with hand-to-hand spec, and it seemed I never parried.... didn't play him that long, either, so don't spit on me... As much as I enjoyed being a hand to hand spec, I found some of the skills to be a bit... lame? I was hoping for more wrestling-ish fighting moves like headbutt, graple, etc. but I got evade... now what in the hell kinda skill is this? I get feint at a lower level, I can't feint/evade in the same round, I can't evade while another warrior feints... sort of makes it useless (in my opinion) Ah well... enough ranting. To answer your question, you can't parry bare handed until you get ironhands.
