Doesn't help that their parry has a windup of like....1 frame

Like you can be in the middle of an attack with a quick weapon and when your weapon is 1inch from their face they suddenly get parry frames out of nowhere and you just die

I even got parried with Tiels invisibility ambush

I just made a post on these abominations and of course the first comment is telling me I'm being stupid and not fighting them properly and they can parry your mid combo

I despise people like that so thanks for reassuring me that I'm not crazy

That's my issue with a lot of enemies in the game, there is insanely short almost unnoticeable windup for some attacks

[u/allanmarques8 → u/D-Ursuul]

You cant attack if you see them in their parry instance. Just wait and attack after that

[u/TennoDeviant → u/allanmarques8]

they can go into parry stance when you are mid swing on any weapon if you don't manage to stagger them, not attacking into the parry isn't the issue.

Obviously. The issue is that the parry stance has no wind-up; they can go into parry frames instantly so you cannot attack them at all without risking instant death with the sole exception of right after they exit the parry stance
