Wait wat You mean that bug is fixed on Uthgard? On live Dual Wield/CD/LA also halved evade, it's been a know bug/feature for ages, at least up to until I stopped playing live. Does anyone know anything about this?

Parry - A character's chance to Parry will no longer be penalized when facing a character who is wielding a two handed weapon. - The penalty to parry when facing multiple attackers has been greatly reduced. Evade - A character's chance to evade will no longer be penalized when facing a character who is dual wielding. They simply turned it off without saying it it was a bug or not.

The same thing happened with Friar dex a long time ago.

This was never a hidden bug. Such things have to be coded to behave like it was. If they didnt intend it then dual wield classes would face the same chances to block from the beginning of DAoC.

Then that is one lucky Hunter, or he was spamming detaunt. And some how I'm willing to bet you still won, Ronia.
