- Benefit: When holding a light or one-handed melee weapon in your main hand, you can use the weapon to deflect melee attacks made against you, gaining a +2 deflection bonus to AC against such attacks by taking a -1 penalty to all your attack rolls that round. When denied your Dexterity modifier to AC, you lose the ability to parry in combat. This feat stacks with the effects of the Combat Expertise feat.
