Mechanics

Parry

While you cast Parry (0.75s), a single-target physical melee hit from your selected target deals you no Hit Points damage. You counter for half the damage left after Armor Class, Ward and Mana Shield, rounded, from 1 to 5 000. A 400-damage hit returns 200. See Parry's calculation. Fully absorbed hits do not trigger it.

Rounded means to the nearest whole number. Exact halves go to the even number, so 2.5 becomes 2.
