Bug - Parry range attacks
I was being attacked by one stonedwarf. It was out of melee range. It threw a rock at me. I hit the button to block with my shield. The rock was blocked, and apparently I timed it properly to get a parry result. Even though this was a missile weapon attack the enemy reacted as if I'd parried a melee attack. I've only seen this once so far but I'm guessing this shouldn't be happening.

MyuFoxySounds normal. I parry ranged enemies like that all the time. Very useful for the archers in the swamp where a normal arrow block would break your guard and stagger you allowing the melee enemies that company archers chain hit you to death.

DanHappened to me a couple of times with skeleton/draugr archers as well. Would make sense just to block the projectile, not stun the oponent, since they're far away.

miniLGuess it depends on how hard you parry, and the distance between you. I bet if you wack those small stones hard enough with your shield, you could fire it back at him. I know a baseball player could ;D
