How to quickly increase Parrying while having Bushido

• Method:

0-50 With a two-handed weapon* in Old Haven while being attacked** by birds (to benefit from Accelerated Gain Quests)

50-120 With a two-handed weapon* while being attacked** by sheep (there are fences with sheep in Yew)

* A two-handed weapon different from our combat skill, for example, if our combat skill is Swordsmanship, we arm ourselves with a War Hammer (Mace Fighting).

** Try to occupy all tiles with creatures in peace mode. If for some reason your character attacks automatically while in peace mode, make sure there is a creature that cannot reach you and mark it as your attack target.

• Explanation:

Increasing the Parrying skill with Bushido with our combat skill starting at 70 begins to slow down, however, when using a two-handed weapon of a different skill, it increases at a remarkable speed (can be applied from the beginning).

As a personal comment, I don't know why it's faster using a different combat skill, but that's how it is. While searching for information online, I found this information (about using a weapon with a different skill than ours) in old forum posts. I tried it, and it really works.

I hope this helps those who were unaware of this so that they can level up this skill more quickly, which is slow when you have Bushido and use your combat skill.

Its effectiveness has been tested with Publish 120.
