| Effect |
- The saying "Pity the blow that falls short"always puts a cunning smile on your face.
- In combat, you can use an evasive maneuver. You can perform it by pressing the jump key along with a directional key. You can use it to quickly dodge attacks, move to a safe distance, or even move closer to your opponent. What's more, if you perform a dodge in the timeframe for a Perfect Block, your opponent will lose his balance, and it will be easier to break his defense.

| Effect |
- The optimal block is one that is executed using the smallest necessary movement. This makes it fast, reliable and opens up the possibility of immediately transitioning into a counterattack.
- The Perfect Block is the best way to deflect your opponent's attack. It doesn't cost any stamina, and certain attacks can only be blocked with a Perfect Block.
- The shield on your combat rosette will light up green when you're able to perform a Perfect Block.
- If you attack right after performing a Perfect Block, you can perform a counter-attack - a riposte.

| Effect |
- In combat, especially sword fighting, getting the timing of an attack right is half the victory!
- You can perform a riposte, i.e. attack immediately after performing a Perfect Block. To perform a riposte, press the attack key as soon as your weapon touches the opponent's during a Perfect block. A riposte can only be defended against with a Perfect Block. This technique is very effective against inexperienced swordsmen, and a duel of two master swordsmen is often a chain of Perfect Blocks followed by ripostes until one of them slips up.

| Effect |
- Tales of knights who could barely move under the weight of armor are just silly tales. Nevertheless, armor does weigh something, and an inexperienced fighter can easily tired. You are accustomed to the burden and know how to properly fasten and adjust your armor to limit your movements as little as possible.
- The weight of the armor you wear affects your speed of movement and how much stamina sprinting depletes. Using this perk, your armor will weigh you down 20 lbs less, thus having a lesser effect on your stamina. Neither the actual weight of your armor nor your carrying capacity will change, however.
