What is the BEST Parry Tool in Dark Souls 3? 

Bro, you are a legend

Force of gravity is the only answer

Duh, Because you are that spell 🤯

Bruh have you never heard of that polish guy who knows how to parry like a god?

.

Bruh I got to check thst

I still don't understand the benefit of parrying on main hand vs the normal way.

@@goblingamer606 Main hand = 5 startup, 6 active Offhand = 5 startup, 5 active

@@smujb5544 so it gets only one extra frame

@@CreamTeam3000 In 30fps yes. If you're on PC or PS5, it's two, and the frames are doubled as it runs at 60 fps

Why you gotta do grandpa like that 😂😂

D: how could you. Crab behaviour and the smallest damage possible were useful informations... To me ;)

Exactly! It's disgusting

Old Man is coming for you, just you know

And not as much missinformation about poise 🤡

​ Hollow knight is harder than dark souls imo. I suck assat platforming games edit: spelling

@@noonewatchesmyvideos3891 i thought it said better

They were lazy at ds3 sadly. Surprised they didn't fix it with a simple patch

Yeah. A double parry would be a good boost for all the downside. A parry in front the player, then one on its back preventing backstab. I can only imagine people managing double parry to look cool. ^^

I would ask the question of "wtf were they thinking" when it comes to parry system as a whole....in pvp the risk vs reward is just not there, if you are seriously trying to win, parry wont help you, imho parry window should be like 3-4 times larger for all parry tools but the damage must be scaled down to offset the high parry chance.

@@tezwoacz at high levels its pretty essy to parry so everyone plays safe, and the animation takes too long for this easy but more parries stuff to work

@@huleyn135 if you have like 5000+ hours in dark souls then EVERYTHING is super easy, problem is that you`r are 0.1% of ds players then, for majority of players its hard, unreliable and unrewarding.

Well you aint wrong

What a legend!

I came to the comments just to see if others had this same question/concern. Thanks for the written list, i'm lucky you happened to update it the day before i watched, when the video is posted 4 months ago lol.

Heads up you forgot to put Rapier Parry and put 2 Off-Hand Small Shield Parry

@@riverrebstock5939 Fixed!

curved sword = double first place because of the clout.

Holy shit yeah

The parry is bad tho

you can main a great shield and off hand a rapiar

you can parry with parry shield in the main hand

This is why artorias has a shield.

They are the same but main hand small shield spell parry has same frames as offhand for parry startup and window

@@Amir0 I meant it more for the purposes of styling and disrespecting on wizards.

I use the sacred bloom shield just to flex on mages

The main problem with spell parries is that they're basically all risk, no reward. If you parry a spell, you don't get to do a riposte. So you might as well roll to save yourself a bit of stamina and improve your positioning.

@@WolfHreda well that's no way to flex, is it?

A buddy of mine swore by the katana parry. He had been new to DS3 at the time and found the Uchi, of course, really early on. He was actually able to get some sick parries off, even right in front of me against randos. Then he went against myself and a few other experienced reds and got backstabbed and baited to death. I dropped him a Llwelyn Shield after that and told him to be more careful. Poor guy. He just wanted to do some sick parries.

@@Eric_The_Cleric That pretty much sums up why I hate the “PVP Meta”. Want to have fun? Too bad because I take video games way too seriously.

@@Eric_The_Cleric But this is a problem with parries in general. You don't want to spam them or you get punished for it. A sublte Katana parry can be used occasionaly when you get the right feeling for an oncoming attack.

Yes exactly, each attempt on them with it usually has a diminishing returns when it comes to your odds. You gotta catch them in moments where they likely are not thinking about it, eg. they are playing very aggressive after you made a bad play.

@@Amir0 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ufmWxqOvmGQ.html 0:18 is a perfect exemple how i use it … i bait them to be agressive they usually don’t see it coming

@@Amir0 so what youre saying is make bad plays, noted

@@baw285 yeah, I want to find more places I could do a main hand shield parry out of nowhere where it would not be obvious

@@tylersm360 you may be joking but it's a viable strategy. Appear weak when you are strong.

yeah

sunlightspear + 60fth You can thank me with gold coins later

it makes me die inside everytime I hear it

Speech is what is actually spoken, not how it’s supposed to be... Gg ez

stanima

stanima is easier to pronounce to stamina. its start up frames are faster and has better tracking. that's why stanima has a well deserved 1st place

@@djkramnik1 this is why I love this community

Ya, it does similar to that when y don’t meet reqs on other tools

As a Dark Souls novice, I was pretty lost at times, with no idea which tool he was using.

i took one attempt on that course and I just gave up

Amish also loves to use that move :)

Thanks! It was an honour

Ty :)

Rest in peace.

Thank you!

he's the limit setter

Iron weighs one less

Well, claws but not the claw, that one is slow

No block frames during the parry tho, but that would work!

@@Amir0 People don't expect you to be able to parry if you have a Greatshield, but boy they're in for a surprise

He says it again around 19:35

and?

WOOOOO

correct me if im wrong but i think its a modded painting guardian set

Yeah idk wtf from was thinking on that one

Brain size doesn't correlate to intelligence

@@jacobhoover1654 That's a pretty small brain answer my dude

@@SpookyJinx Einsteins brain was 1230 grams while the average brain size is 1350 grams

Your brain got bigger but your skull stayed the same size?

@@jacobhoover1654 who cares

I wouldn’t mind rocking a medium shield with a parry as I could still parry the attacks with lots of parriable frames pretty easily still, and it’s nice having that ready in those situations. However I like instantly being able to use my weapon arts, but that could be because I’m a hard swapper for the most part.

​@@Amir0 Hm, I suppose it just depends on what the opponent(s) is bringing to the fight. A large portion of my pvp experience has been through mid-level invasions since i find it easier to find match making in a variety of areas. The Character I use is named Weapon Master as he hard swaps to random weapon classes every estus or so, I try to living up to the name the best I can but sometimes when fighting multiple opponents and I want to win; I end up swapping frequently to the Medium Shield just to have the ability to not fully commit to a series of attacks, and use the parry no one expects as they think i'm using it strictly as a defensive tool to deny damage. So they typically just try guard breaking with R1s which often leads to them being parried as a result. I just think generally swapping to any sort of small shield/parry tool will give away your intent. Typically better players will see that and use tactics to counter a parry or be more mindful on how they attack, effectively slightly changing their playstyle for better or worst. For invasions I can't really think of any decent offensive attack based WAs to use against multiple opponents dealing respectable damage or Poise Weapons as most attack based WAs are a risk that looks cool when successful but feels like a coin flip of whether or not the timing is right or if they receive damage in a position where my opponents won't be able to easily to get damage in once I'm finished hitting them (due to their stamina regenerating while their stunlocked, and mine being depleting as I'm performing the WA). For example Curved Greatsword Murakumo WA - leaves you in place Lucerne WA - Leaves you in place UGS Stomp - Leaves you place Of course more Defensive and Shorter WAs like Perseverance and anything with Guard Break is definitely useful. So i can see WA shields being useful then, but I mean just pressing Y as you equip it only takes a less than a second longer to be able to even activate it. Using a WA shield will allow you to be a lot more reactive sure, but at mid level it's not as practical due to the risk of going over 70 in weight. (depending on build, armor, and weapon weight itself ofc) I'm sure at Higher Levels Vitality isn't as much of an issue to be able to just equip it vs mid level where points can't just be freely spent. Quick Step also being a good way to escape, but I prefer using my FP for Actions that will result in Damage. Besides having a dagger on Weapon Slot 2 allows for a higher damage soft swap riposte, and quick step. Though I imagine in such scenarios where you don't have to worry about having 3 people on you or just dueling it'd probably just be preferable to just use whatever is gonna get damage and still have that a block as an option, since as you mentioned yourself Duels are much different in approach to a fight compared to invasions.

lol fighter PL does those and it's not serious, it's just a meme video that people asked him to do, he always shows clips where he gets destroyed because of the poor level balancing since he has 99 on 1 stat and the others are left behind, i don't know why you are making such a big deal about it.

it looks cool.

-60

It does but I also like the players who use this give me so much time to run around and bs.

Check my community posts, I shared my key binds there

@@Amir0 Oh awesome thank you!

:)

Just use whips, it has deceptively Long range with its Weapon Art AND can't be parried.

Meh, not like they don't use it already ( Llewelyn "Tryhard" Shield). Atleast maybe they will stop with pathetic parry fishing with Caestus, thinking nobody notices it in their off-hand.

it works in classes so there's not really any big exceptions aside from the shit weapon parries

@@BigDBrian yeah but there are a ton of unique(ish) parries, he even goes over them in the video, like the parrying dagger and the farron greatsword and theres the special parry for small shields
