Parry window

[Crom]

So how short it is parry window? Like 0,0000001 sec?

Because, after few successfull parry, ita like for me 1 parry from 20 tries.

Depends on the shield. Smaller shields like the buckler have a wider parry window than the heater shields, and definitely better than the great shields.

I don't know what the frame data is but if you're practicing parry:

Pay attention on success, red sparks will accompany the parry success sound in the location your shield needs to meet the enemy's weapon. Practice timing the press such that the shield is in that location each time.

you have about a 15 frame parry window with the buckler parry with an almost negligeble windup.
If you wanna parry start as the thief class the clossest runner ups are things like storm wall and golden parry i believe but still not as good as buckler parry dont bother with the parrying dagger it has like 5 parry frames and a long windup it will feel horrible unless you are a parry god and even then itll feel really bad compared to the buckler.

There is no real advice, no calculations wil ever help you. Keep practicing and suddenly your instinct will kick in and most your parries will be successful using whatever parry shield you are comfortable with. I use 100% block medium shield, it's fantastic

I recommend watching a video about the topic as it's hard to explain just in text.

speaking off parries im currently running my misercorde at +8 in limgrave but i cant really remember any weapons that would be better for ripostes i was thinking maybe some rapiers might compete for ripostes anyone have any good reccomends for late game riposte weapons or just +25 my misercorde

[Tikus Tycoon]

I tried the golden parry ash, brilliant but i still have to quickly run up to enemy to repost, so normal parry is good for me. The ash of war on the shield, carian retaliation, is great for turning enemy's spell into a spell that attack the enemy back (lol sorry not sure how to explain it well in english)

Blade normally does the biggest damage for repost.

blade? kinda vague also if you like golden parry stormwall is worth checking out its the same thing but at slightly closer range i find it easier to riposte with than golden parry in most cases. golden parry is good for bigger enemies

Heheh, sorry i dont know which blade, but that type of weapon normally does the biggest repost damage. I only quickly 2 hand whatever weapon im using to reposte enemies then quickly switch back to 1 hand so i can be ready to parry again.

Took me quite a while to learn parrying tho, not easy at all but we all will develop instinct for it

im thinking of going misericorde with Royal knights resolve and seeing how that works out dmg wise

Where did you get these values? Is there a dust loop like place for souls games, I'd like to poke around if so, looking for something more traditional in "press on frame of or before attack "
