You're talking about how parry was supposed to work at half effectiveness if
one wasn't using a shield. Someone noticed that it was in fact working
normally regardless of shield use, and for whatever reason this lack of a
penalty became a feature instead of a bug.

Well not sure if it was reported or what not, but somehow I was the one that
looked at the code and saw the penalty wasn't applied. it became a feature
because it had been that way for a LOOONG time. course we're just talking
history now ;)
