      Remember that different parry tools have different timings. Some come out super fast but have tiny windows of parry frames while others might start the window a lot later than when you pressed the button but have a more forgiving time frame.

  • @redfish337
    @redfish337 6 місяців тому

    I don't know the mechanics... but just FYI out there... it's not necessarily an instant kill, at least on new game with most blessings.
    It's a lot less hassle/risk to parry kill them (or just run past them without bothering with stealth) if they don't instant kill you. You can just double heal and keep going or try another parry.
    Equip the anti-madness talismans so it doesn't proc madness during the main attack but is then out of sync and just procs while in their presence. And max life talisman.
    This gives you like 4-5 tries to get the parry before being sent back. Most of these are right by a stake so it's not a huuuge deal, but I think it's much easier to learn the parry timing if you don't have 30-60 seconds or whatever between attempts. You just back up, double "estus" and try again.

    I happen to be to close, that's when they just swing their stick but don't do the charge.
    The charge is much easier to parry as their weapon is basically in front of you.
    If you are too close, they do the swing, which is hard to time.

    FYI: I reccomend NOT using a medium shield or a weapon (except for a dagger) to parry these enemies with... As Medium shields and almost every weapon parry is a 2 frame window vs something like Buckler, which has roughly 8 frames, or regular small shields which have 6 frames

    I died a lot before a figured out the timing. Push your parry button (I’m on PS5 so L2 for me) when those mfs begin their animation, don’t wait for the last minute. As soon as they raise their stick push L2. To be honest the parry timing is way off.

      @@coreykuehl8519 I think it’s meant to make those enemies more scary and intimidating. U can’t run away from them with the horse and there’s only one way to kill them. Since u can only parry them u either succeed or basically die if u miss it. The whole thing is nerve wracking, which I assume is the point. It is a slog to get around though, but I think the trade off of ditching the horse is worth it. If u try getting on the horse in that forest u get a message saying it’s too scared to come to u. Everything comes together to make u feel scared. I guess it doesn’t work for everyone though

      You don't have to double parry. After you parry you can just attack
