I got that surprise message this morning!

I do see messages from time to time of this nature:

a <MOB_NAME> attempts to attack but misses.

I always assumed it would increase my Dodge skills, not my Parry skills. . . Should I have, seeing how it was 0 before? (I somehow thought we needed to have at least 1 in a skill to use it??)


Does this mean that eventually I will be able to gain skill-ups in the other Physical - Defensive skills, like Block, Dodge and Parry?

It was a lot of kills before I saw the skillup though . . . How often should thoes types of skills increase?

What other skills that are at 0 can be increased?

-p

It is kind of random defense choice, between Dodge and Parry and if you have a shield equipped then Block. However, you should not have had the value increased when it was 0 to begin without first training the skill. I will have a look and see what is going there, I probably broke it when I changed the skill leveling stuff around.
