'''Defend''' (Originally '''[[Parry]]''' )is a very basic stance appearing in every installment of the {{DQSeries}}. Upon use, the character reduces all damage by 50% for that turn. Since it is one of the most basic commands, it's located in a character's main action menu. | '''Defend''' (Originally '''[[Parry]]''') is a very basic stance appearing in every installment of the {{DQSeries}}.
