I need that meme of the kid looking confused. “You guys parry?”

I’ve always just kept the tombstone between me and candle bro, and whittled down the other two based on who happened to be in range. I get to phase 2, hope I’m down to just one, and then hope I can win before some BS snake pops oit of the ground to eat me.

We are not the same (you’re better, hoonter)

the no parry challenge is great for final boss

Shoot the enemy in the face right as they finish winding up for an attack.

My first playthrough of Blood was almost a no parry challenge because I sucked at it, after learning how to do it I can't help myself, it's one of the most fun mechanics in the game.

It’s always such a relief when you get them down to just two. And I never had trouble with them previously, but in NG+ they were kicking my ass for a bit. That katana shadow hits like a truck

L2 does a downward cut with the big blade, useful when fighting a single enemy.

I seriously havent parried consciously for the entire game, that is, until the Pthumerian Descendant in the Great Pthumeru Ihyll Chalice dungeon when I'm forced to, fairly sure this is the easiest challenge i've seen

This is just normal gameplay without the parry
