Bug HonorBlade/Samurai|ParryMagic - Doesn't actually block/reflect

[Delikin]

So I've been noticing that in PvP when I use parrymagic against most magic skills, it doesn't get blocked at all. Skills such as arcaneblast, fireball, icebolt, fireblast, magicbolt, and entangle are not blocked at all. In fact, the only magic ability that is blocked by parry magic (at least coming from wizard) is bolt. On top of all this, the damage that is blocked , is not reflected as the wiki and in game tool tip says it is. (I tested this all tonight while I was in town with a buddy of mine.)

This makes using parry magic kind of useless TBH if it only block a few magical abilites.

This is do to skills not being labeled as magic and instead as light or fire damage. Changing all damage types of non physical moves to magic would most likely fix this issue and fix DevourMagic aka buff runeblade.

Was this not fixed last map? I remember it being broken then getting fixed.

I just tested all these last night, none of them are blocked, and not even the one that is blocked reflects the damage as the wiki and in game tool tip say they do.

Samurai is the neglected class that everyone wanted but nobody wants to fix and balance

Yeah, this is one of those things that kind of needs to be fixed for samurai/honorblade to be viable in a real fight.

@Donal
Bump, anyone? This is s pretty necessary ability for Samurai/Honorblade.
