Noob Sampire in training question..

[Marcus Blackwell]

I know this is probably a stupid question but do Sampires use shields? I know they run with 120 parrying but Im thinking somewhere in the past I think I heard they dont use shields for some reason.

 

[BeefSupreme]

No shields. Bushido uses your weapon to parry, with I think a 5% parry bonus if the weapon is 2 handed.

 

[Sir Kenga]

There are builds without Parry skill, those use shields for HCI, DCI, FC. But that's not exactly sampires
