I didn’t know that Kinetic Deflection could cause overload, before update it’s never did this, I hope this is bug upd. tested one more thing, it causes explosion only when I try to parry at max peril, while simple blocking do not cause overload

[image] ridjess: it causes explosion only when I try to parry at max peril, while simple blocking do not cause overload Not a bug then: [image] Bound by Duty - Free Update Out Now (Psyker class only) Added 4% Peril cost to perform the Special Parry action,

oh, ok then, somehow I missed description of dueling sword, thank you

i’m pretty sure its a bug the tool tip starts with “whole below critical peril” meaning it should work above it
