dodging and parrying

[Cr8ToR]

Why i so inconstant ?
im no parry master in souls games but this i ridiculous, and im playing on "normal" im not even want to try hardest difficulty because of this

Expert is pretty easy actually. First time encounter die allot. 2nd die a little later. learned attack moves, still die. Mastered attack patterns and slay the boss.

i think you didnt understand my post.
Dodge and parrying window time is EXTREMELY low and fast. Sometimes mob/boss dont even "telegraph" or have a windup time

There is nexus mod to tweak parry window. I use x2

I'm currently at the weird water level and every enemy telegraphs. Even the annoying mine enemies with their lightning attack. Sometimes it's visual and sometimes its by sound.

Then dodge if you cant parry. Dodge window is wider than parry. No need to ruin your experience

quite simple really, because every enemy has different timings and some even mix timings during the same attack window, if every parry timing was the same the game would be absurdly easy

yeah iv done some digging, dodge is 0.03 sec "faster" than a parry :D

Like the previous person said. As you progress through the game enemies will try and juke you with slower attacks, tricks and wind ups. The game will even throw some jump attacks in the mix as well. Increasing your parry window isn't gonna help you if you are having trouble with the basics.

So far the parrying in this game is far more consistent and easy than in most soulslikes.

In games like khazan the parry window is before the attack lands, just to artificially complicate it. In this game you parry the attack roughly as it lands; it's one of the few games with parrying I've played where you can actually react to the visual.

Bosses only have a few different combos/attacks they cycle through, they're visually distinct AND the game tells you which one is coming.

This mod is meant for everyone having those troubles, give it a shot.

if you parry an attack when it "lands" you will get hit. You should parry it a few moments after the attack started.

Not really. Slightly early is probably the most consistent, but this games timing is the closest to "as it lands" as I've seen in this type of game.

I'm playing on expert, though, so I think the parry window is tighter. Maybe on Normal you can parry really early and still land it consistently.

no the devs need to release games in a playable state that does not require additional mods
