I think on this one - if you and your players don't mind extra rolling - is to say that some combination of "
missed by a lot" and "successful defense roll" means that the attack and positioning for the defense does not trigger the extra penalties typically imparted for multiple block/parry attempts. "The attack is so bad I can just stand there" should be a viable outcome.
