I have already tried it twice and never felt satisfied with the choice.
1. I used it on a minotaur sword/mace. the sword I didn't like it with. The mace changed to a tank weapon. But I picked it to boost sword/parry/riposte which I failed it.
2. I used it on a felar h2h/staff. I wanted to be a better tank with staff, but I didn't see much difference. But the h2h was much better parrying.

I have a feeling about it, and I have a build to try it again and almost confirm it. But on the other hand, I cannot find enough motivation to waste some 50hr just to do so.

Could someone with access to codes (Or maybe good experience with it) answer either or both of the following questions? (Answer the 2nd if you don't like to answer the first.)

1. What does the ward legacy exactly do?
2. Is what I think right or wrong:
Ward boosts your parry up to parry-dagger-with-staff for your char. So, you don't get much better for sword or staff, but get a huge boots for dagger.So no sword build, even a human-con-sword shouldn't get this legacy to boost the parry, because they have low parry, but ward won't help them anyway.
