Can fist weapons parry?

As the title says, can I parry if I equip fist weapons?

I repsecced to my PvP spec a couple days ago and have yet to proc a single counterattack with fist weapons on.

Update: after letting a low lvl mob hit me for a while it procd. Seems like I’ve just been very very unlucky with my parry ove the past few days.

Try it irl or in game

mobs does parry without having any weapons xD

Not sure if you are serious, but yes every melee weapon allows yout to parry if you are capable to parry to begin with, and you can block too when you have a shield and the skill to block.

Stupid question but did you spec into counterattack?

I’d heard that in original Vanilla parrying with fist weapons was patched in later on.

Yeah talents picked and rank 3 on my bars. 30% chance to parry with deterrence up as well…

Yes, fist weapons can parry - this is partially why Eskhanders claw is still considered a decent starter tank weapon. Early in vanilla you couldn’t parry with a fist weapon though.

    Fist Weapons will now have the normal chance to parry that all weapons use.
