So I am unsure about the parry change.
A) Is it purely cosmetic ( changing the description to match its function )?

Is it still worth rank 3 for the core of every mastery build?
C) I unlocked and ranked it to 3 with stone cores from classic difficulty event quests like ultrons assault will I be refunded units or the cores?
D) with a longer stun now on stupefy is it better (for a longer stun duration) to max parry and not max stupefy or only 1 in parry but max stupefy ?
E) is parries role more similar to dexterity now in that 1 point in it is essential for pretty much all content but any more is considered a waste?
Thanks any help appreciated
