How much of a defensive difference does Coule make?

[Israphil]

<div></div>I guess the subject kind of says it all.I'm planning to go wisdom and strength line with my brigand, but having seen the thread concerning the merits of traumatic swipe, I'm wondering if coule is really worth it. How much of a defensive difference does the +15 defense/parry from coule provide? If anyone can give me a %, that'd be awesome.Thanks in advance.EDIT: I'm basically an idiot; posted this in the wrong boards, after having been redirected here to read the traumatic swipe thread. Oh well, swashie opinion is still pertinent I suppose; better than having posted this in the templar section.<div></div><p>Message Edited by rckmer on <span class=date_text>05-09-2006</span> <span class=time_text>01:09 PM</span>

I'd estimate approximately 8% avoidance. It will vary depending on whether you have existing parry and defense skill bonuses and if you group with people who give you those bonuses. Essentially the more you have, the less it's worth.
