Why doesn't blocking award xp?
Blocking without a shield can be a challenge and is very satisfying when it does go well. I have been working on a sword master type build and have blocked 100's if not 1000s of blocks and it should seriously reward xp. If blocking with a one hander it should boost One handed skill or whatever the type of weapon class you are blocking with. The experience system only rewards spam hitting which kind of is bland specially after playing a game like Kingdom Come Deliverance where blocking rewards xp.
What do you guys think, should blocking boost the skill as well?
