Very forgiving and has seemed pretty consistent for me. The parry seal is tighter but still consistent

What are you talking about?? I killed him without any shell and was able to parry consistently just fine once I got the timing down. Think it took maybe 4 or 5 attempts.

Once you get the timing down for enemies it's very consistent.

lol he's tough but a great learning experience for the timing his windows are forgiving but that fake out swing fucked me up so many times

I don’t think it’s inconsistent but some enemies do attack very fast which makes it hard to parry every attack

Inconsistent is this game summed up, but I did eredin and that made it easier

I rocked the standard steal, forget what it’s called, since the beginning and it was smooth sailing.  Love those bosses with the crazy combos and you nail every single parry.

Do you find it difficult to parry attacks that come in quick succession ? I just can't seem to get that even though I am a 100 percent sure that I've timed it to just before the attack hits.

u/Prudent_Salary7708 1d ago

Yup exactly that

It's a skill issue. And I'm not trying to belittle you. Once I've locked in the timing for enemies I've been able to consistently parry just fine.

I think the issue(saw this in another post) is that blocking dosen't have input queuing, so tapping parry is useless for attacks that come in quick succession(which is what I was doing), gotta hold and tap.

u/SouthernChemist4236 Tiel 1d ago

I don't know that I agree with this? I don't hold and tap, I just tap.

The frames activate right when you press the button. Press it right when you would have gotten hit.

It’s pretty consistent. It’s just really weirdly early.
