You can parry the cheap guys in the horrid stealth section
The timing is quite awful for it but you want to do it when they raise their dirty hands to grab you, I mean its this or enjoy being in there for a long time trying to use the horrid stealth mechanics.

Just another example of how this games are just "10000 ways to abuse the player".

You can always parry them with a small shield I use buckler and let them teleport to me turn your camera facing you then roll to the right and spam parry

carian retaliation on any small or medium shield is another good option, especially when unfamiliar with parrying as it has a visual indicator for your parryframes

I take it you tried to stealth past them using nothing but bushes and crouching? You have so many other tools at your disposal, mate. Try using the Black Knife armor or the Assassin's Approach incantation. You can also use Unseen Form if you're a sorcerer or use Miriam's Vanishing if you're detected.

If you want to be extra bold you can just stack a lot of HP and Focus stat to be able to survive the Madness buildup, then just run, roll, heal and repeat.

It's not a difficult game, buddy.

And? I never got this note and I don't know where it is, probably most people don't know.

Look buddy I used the most effective tactic to effectively eliminate them from the game, once they are parried they are gone.

I mean you're right about that. The note is found in Midra's Manse, which is only accessible after you've gotten past the Aging Untouchables in the first place. It is likely a way to educate players after the fact. Another cool thing is that once you parry/riposte one of them and kill them - they never respawn.

A discarded page ripped from a diary, bearing a passage written in a tremulous hand. "I touched him, but only once. When he thrust his staff in my face, I brushed it aside. It was then that I touched him. The aging untouchable."

And that guy has the balls to bring it up like we can travel back in time to tell us this information and create a paradox.

The dishonesty of the fanatics never sease to amaze me.

It factually is, this game designers are just looking to ways to abuse the player and the people that enjoy it are masochists lmao you can not deny any of this because its a fact, how so? look at the fanatics of this game, prasing constantly the increase in difficulty and abusing people that criticise this, look at the developers how they develop their game, the mechanics, the kind of stuff you find in this game like this stealth section out of nowhere in a game where never had forced stealth into anything because its not designed to be that way, you can not kill the enemies, they are immune, they one shot you and the only way to kill them is to parry them by luckily getting the super tight timing to work and unless someone tells you this you will never find out before you already finished this forced stealth section and once you find out its like a way for them to laugh in your face and here are you, defending them for this abuse.

Blocked, stay being a masochist.

You could try using Golden Parry as it provides further range and more frames to "hit" over the regular versions. I have gotten old and slow, so I had to lean on this to get it done. Still takes me on average 3-4 tries per Aging Untouchable I successfully land a parry/riposte on.

You'll get it, buddy. I believe in you!

I was watching a video today on how to kill them. A lot of work, I will pass on this one.

You don't need to find the in-game note if you read the signs on the floor there was one that said "try parrying" before the very first one of those madness guys in the stealth section. Read the signs they're sometimes really helpful! Except ones by the cliff that say "try jumping" of course
