I get that Henry starts with no combat training but my sword skill is at level 8 and my defense stat is at level 5 and I can’t parry, side step, and perfect block because I didn’t do the main story. So I was wondering if there was a mod that fixed this? I looked on the Nexus Forum and didn’t find anything. It doesn’t make sense for the main story to hold these mechanics hostage. Especially since every drunk, bandit, and peasant has the ability to side step me to oblivion.
And for those saying to do the main story that is a non negotiable. I love this game but I will return it before I play the main story. I got this game to plunder towns, rob graves, and free all the horses from their human overlords.
