And what do player colors mean?

The colored bars don't have any special meaning. They're just there to distingush chars more easily in a large crowd.

They probably just mean what Adano posted.

But I used to think that the color of the bars had to do with how a player distributed character attributes.

Blue meant a general mix of everything, red meant more strength oriented, etc.

Just a remark:
When I was fighting orcs, and flies....
Flies with red colors hit me harder then flies with green bars...(or maybe it is just my impression)

The staff has said several times that these colors don't have a special meaning. Many people did suppose they would be somehow connected to attribute distribution, but I see no reason why the staff would deny an implemented feature.

and another question!
Whats the difference between Parry and Dodge??

Parry is when you parry a blow, dodge is when you dodge it.

-> You parry with your shield or weapon, but you dodge with your "body". Dodging means you avoid the blow, parrying means you take a blow but deflect some of the kinetic energie.

Dodge: No damage (afaik)
Parry: Lowered damage

So when I have a shield on it trains my parry
When I only have a sword in my hand it trains dodge (without shield)

Odd, then dodge takes a long time to train. Isn't dodge mainly trained against long ranged weps?
