Pretty useful, requires balls to find them all on your own ;)

Parrying a boss actually doesn't worth the effort at all in DS2. They're recovering VERY quickly, and you can see that from the video. To parry a boss is a nice and cool thing to do, but it's not useful at all. Except for the Pursuer, of course.

It's quite acceptable on the single bosses, but all the group fights should have prolonged/riposteable parries. The gargoyle fight is impossible to win with parrying.

Seems only useful of Velstadt and the pursuers since they are the only ones with lenghty recoveries, the other bosses have really short windows, though it's nice to see that From actually added parry animations to these bosses instead of just being like DkS1, were you just took no damage from the hit and the boss was unaffected.

yeah...at least you can land two quick attacks with a rapier...but dodging is in fact the safer and more efficient option...sad but true.

I just played through the game again, partially because I had worked out a SL 150 Rob+Flynn+Sacred Oath Build, partially because I wanted to fight the new boss and the new ending.

This same playthrough I also started parrying a couple bosses for ♥♥♥♥♥ and giggles when I thought I could get away with it.

Ending up parrying the second of the Twin Dragonriders five times in a row on my first attempt, absolutely failed at parrying the Looking Glass Knight, and had enough success at parrying Velstadt that it didn't get me killed at least.

It's fun enough if you can manage it.

yeah, it's pretty fun to humiliate bosses...but other than that there is sadly no real advantage :(
and trut me, i died a lot to the glass knight cause I was thinking "damn, he HAS to be parryable!" :D

Also is this music from Witcher ?

lol, if i would have played as male character there would be plenty jokes about my "strong left hand"......^^ but i like the idea of the diamond-dagger :D
regarding the music: it's not the witcher music, but after you said that i realised the analogy...they sound pretty similar.

I couldn't parry that one either, is it possible that he's actually unparriable?

I think so! but there are posts around which say that he is parryable. the same for smelter demon and old ivory king. people state they parried them - but without proof.
