TL;DW
Not all parries are equal. They vary per character and per attack. Parries are usually rated by first hit in a combo. Rover is my golden standard, since I have most experience with Rover, everyone has Rover, and Rover also has very generous hitbox shapes and lifespan. The two concepts today are Pre-Parry and Parry Cancel.
Pre-parry relies on a Resonator’s lingering attack hitbox, allowing you to take other actions while waiting for an enemy to collide with your parry hitbox. This allows a much wider Parry Window by setting up Parries far in advance of the normal window. Hitboxes do not disappear until either hitting an enemy, or expiring naturally. By keeping your distance and swinging a lingering hitbox early, you essentially set up a "trap" for the enemy to run into, making certain annoying moves a lot easier to counter. If you directly hit an enemy with your weapon during a Pre-Parry, your hitbox will prematurely expire and the upcoming Parry will fail.
Parry Cancel relies on the delay between producing a hitbox and an enemy being successfully parried. There is a delay even on point blank attacks that allows you to take action before the parry completes, but is measured in milliseconds and difficult to take advantage of. Normally, a Pre-Parry has a massive delay between producing the hitbox and an enemy being Parried. Your hitbox remains so long as you do not cast an echo or swap off. Therefore, your options are skill, or Perfect Dodge. Perfect Dodge is the preferred method to generate Resonance Energy and Concerto Energy to speed up or add tolerance to rotations, while still Parrying the enemy. The Dodge must occur before the Parry lands, meaning the enemy needs to be close enough to be considered hitting you at the moment of Dodge.
Jiyan cannot Pre-Parry well due to noticeably shorter first hitbox lifespan. Calcharo can Pre-Parry, and thus can also Parry Cancel reliably with practice, giving massive damage from his Resonance Liberation’s Dodge Counter, while still destroying shields from the Parry itself. Yes, this elevates Calcharo’s rotation damage even higher, whereas Jiyan cannot take advantage of this.

I now also stream on Twitch! While the main game will probably be Warframe, I am planning on keeping my Twitch on variety, so that I can enjoy other games there. My RU-vid will remain focused on Warframe for now.
