Any advice on parrying with medium shields?

I'm already fucking annihilating people with the turtlepoke bs tech, using a shield has also eliminated pretty much all of the problem weapons I've faced with a spear in the past (washing pole, halberds/glaives in general, gotthards rolling L1, etc).

I don't think it's worth the 3 extra stability points for the black knight shield when I never use my weapon skill, so parrying is a lot more useful. What I wanted to ask is, any advice on parrying with a LK Shield? I guess it's just practice and focusing purely on setup parries, right? I know for example like with this washing pole user, or spears, I can tank the first hit and immediately queue up an L2 and it works surprisingly consistently. That said, can't do that with glaives/halberds or greatswords, seems like I have to wait some short period of time after the first R1 to get the parry to land (can't just queue up a parry as soon as humanly possible after the first hit). Also trying to figure out shit like the dark sword, I fought a guy today who was just R1 spamming so I thought I'd tank the first 2 hits and then spam L2 ASAP, but it didn't land. I'm not sure if my timing was wrong (should do it after the first hit rather than after the second), or if it was just latency. Or maybe I should even try prediction parrying against those sort of people? Not sure.

tl;dr let's talk about medium shield parrying for a sec. It's the last thing I need to git gud at because I'm in love with the rest of this LK Shield + Gargoyle FS set up. I never use the weapon skill so I might as well find a way to make use of the parrying.

Parrying is more about instinct than strategy. I find myself rarely parrying in PvP. I find the more I focus on trying to parry, the worse it turns out unless they have a weapon that's really easy to bait.

The timing on the medium shield parry is fine for telegraphed moves such as running R1s, but unreliable for SS spam. In my experience, anyway.

>>146683079

Eh, I've made set up parries work enough times in only the past 2 days to get the feeling that there is definitely a trick to timing it against certain classes of weapons. I'm pretty sure that prediction parrying is mostly not worth the risk, but that's probably be against running attacks which I just block and move out of the way of anyways. Hell, with the GFS I can often just poke those running bastards anyways, so all the better.

But setup parrying? I can definitely see it being something one can get consistently good at. Mostly a matter of learning the weapon timing of different classes of weapons, like I said things like spears and katanas you can block the 1st R1 (even running R1) and immediately queue up an L2 and you parry the 2nd R1. That pic I posted was the second time in the same match I did that, killing him. Can't be too hard to rely on if I could do it twice in the same match, when I'm still pretty new to it.

That said, turtlepoke backstabs are insane, apparently if you backstab with the guard up + R1 instead of a regular R1, it initiates the backstab animation much faster, where you can even cancel other people's attacks in the process. Learned about it from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42bxVd4_YF0

That, I can do pretty consistently now. But I've already got the parry medium shield so I figure might as well start gitting gud at parrying too, I mean why not? Not like a weapon art shield would be of any use to me with a fucking spear. Figure I just need to learn setup parry timings but thought I'd ask around here just in case there was something I missed.

>>146683795
yea because you totally used it strategically and not infinitely pressure opponents from 10 miles with a greatsword

DLC WHEN

i've already pretty much forgotten Dark Souls 3 even exists

>>146683549

Good to know, I'll keep experimenting with it. Definitely want the ability to punish people R1 spamming into my shield, and latency is always a concern of course, but if it winds up being too much of a risk I'll change up my strategy. It's definitely a skill I want to cultivate so I still have hope, though.

>>146683492

It just involves initiating the backstab with your guard up while pushing R1, you'll be right up next to them and walking around them (not running) when you do it (running will cause you to do a running R1 even with your guard up). Apparently it initiates the backstab animation much faster than a normal R1, and can be done with any weapon with the turtlepoke ability (so like, estoc would work too).

Watch this video: >>146683809

>>146683932

Nah, I'd say setup parries are the main way to parry with a medium shield. You tank the first 1-2 hits and then parry on the 2nd-3rd hit. Against certain weapons, like katana or spear R1 spam, you can block the first hit and immediately queue up the parry and it lands basically every time. I know at LEAST this is true from my personal experience. As for other weapons, like say greatswords or halberds/glaives, you can parry the 2nd hit but you need to "pause" for a certain period of time that I'm still figuring out. Immediately parrying after the 1st hit will be too soon. Straight swords I'm still trying to figure out too, I thought it would be mashing parry after the 2nd hit but that didn't work for me against a dark sword recently, but it could be lag too so it'll require more testing on my part. Might be mashing L2 after only the first hit, not sure. Latency problems might inevitably make it something you either try to prediction parry the first swing of an obvious R1 spammer or you just avoid in general, hopefully that's not the case though.

I don't parry ultra weapons, even 1H'd. They do too much damage if you whiff, and besides they're way too easy to just turtlepoke bs anyways. Easy.

I know for a fact I'll get the parry on the 2nd R1 from a katana or spear with a medium shield though. Straight swords are really dumb though (as in OP), granted, but I need more testing against them (surprisingly few people run them in my experience at SL120 pontiff duels, more often run into ultra greats than anything in all honesty). First need to see after how many attacks I should mash L2 and secondly need to see if it's something where I need to attack and hit them first and judge the latency before attempting it, maybe it can only be done with a really good connection, idk.

>>146684719

I think you'll find the more you focus on parrying, the less you'll find yourself doing it. If that makes sense? Most attacks that you could parry with a medium shield can be blocked or roll-avoided, then punished, rather than risking it.

The right moment to parry is the moment you hit parry and it connects. For me, anyway, it's 100% instinct and has nothing to do with prediction. Even with the caestus. Parryfishing is sad to watch when the guy could've probably countered and at least guaranteed themselves damage.

i really love it but the damage is so fucking bad and being a parrybait making it even worse.

So what's the difference between the Giants in DS2 and DS3
Yhorm clearly has a face and eyes

>>146685379

Yeah, I mean don't get me wrong, I'm not a parry king. It's just that I have the parry ability, it's much more useful than 3 more points of stability with the black knight shield, even if it's just to make people play around it even if I never use it (or throw some whiffs out at a distance to get them thinking about it).

I mostly am looking to git gud at the obvious parries with the medium shield. Like I said, I know I can at least consistently parry R1 spam from katanas and spears right now. Honestly mostly just want to learn how to parry people who are just R1 spamming into my shield with various weapons. That's the main parry punish I'm looking to git gud at.

Turtlepoke BS's are still my bread and butter atm. Straight sword + parry tool players are a pain in the ass though, I just know they're going to R1 spam into my shield if I try to block them.

I can get summoned to Mirror Knight (not that often, though), but no matter how much I wait, I haven't gotten a single player be summoned when I fight him. Am I doing something wrong? Should I disable cross-region? Should I change Steam DL region? Should I leave my covenant or try a different one?

>>146689238

Miyazaki has said that he doesn't like patching skips that abuse the level geometry. That skip is kind of pushing it though, just like the Irithyll skip because they rely on the Tears.

It's terrible. You will literally only hit people who are not expecting how slow it is and roll on reaction into a hit. And even then the damage won't be worth it. With Leo Ring counterhits you're looking at 400 damage at most in trades on a weapon with no hyperarmor and the slowest actual attacks in the game with what feels like one of the most narrow hitboxes to actually hit with as well. It's bad.

Nope, I only haven't played Bloodborne.

That "event" is a disguised gank

Bloodborne has a similar speed, just slightly faster than ds3.
However, be prepared for less weapon selection. There are less weapons, but each one has their own "trick".
It's much better than ds3, and imo the best in the series. Give it a go.

>>146694901
I found every optional area in the game and my first run was only ~36 hours, I'm genuinely curious about what took so long. Did you just die thousands of times? Grind loadsasouls to try out tons of different weapons?

>>146694880
There is a second phase?

do we have enough popes now for me to start being a defender

>>146695114

any popes on PS4?
feels pretty dead

>>146695110

Maybe he did PvP? I know it took me well over 100 hours to finish because once I got to post-pontiff I literally just stopped progressing for a long time to do SL70-80 duels.

>>146692808
>invade pontiff dsg
>keep finding people that have nothing to do with the event
wouldn't it be better to make this somewhere else ?

>>146694806
just say it you stupid faggot
no wonder your parents hate you

>>146695315
that would explain it, because I never pvp on my first run, I save that for subsequent runs when I understand the game's balance, mechanics and areas later. Pretty crucial to do if you want successful invasions

>>146695304

"PS4" and "Dead" seem to go together quite often these days, no matter the circumstances, in dark souls.

>>146695223
I'm invading retards that don't even have popes on it

>>146695110

Yeah I guess my grind was the Co-op. I really enjoyed being a helpful sunbro.

hey event shitposter o/

>>146695428
you're not supposed to invade
it's an option but you should remember most likely you won't get in

/dsg/ is supposed to be defenders & popes, invaders are supposed to be randoms, including /dsg/ if they so desire
