Default Re: Is parry calculated from base skill or effective skill?

So parrying with your off hand* would be at the base parry, without applying the -4 to skill (which would translate to a -2 to parry)?

Or am I confused?

*say, because your primary has been crippled or lopped off... thank goodness the mage knows Regenerate.
