Hey guys! Ok so just recently got my character to max clade and my skills to where i want them. I have some questions about parrying, im not sure if it has changed ?

I can no longer perfect parry.. ever? and i can no longer get any counter attacks off. It worked very well in duels and vs zombies from the starter sword until a couple days ago. Now it *blocks vs zombies where i still take dmg, or i parry and take 0 dmg.. but the parry now doesnt make the tink* noise it sounds like it hits cloth armour? and my riposte or counter attack no longer does full dmg like it was before. ever. tried it on zombies all day with numerous weapons from torch to poleaxe. never once could i get a riposte off? did it change ? am i doing something wrong ? aah!
Thanks for any feedback!

It's hard to parry AI at the moment. The attacks sometimes are so random. Sometimes it's 5 seconds until they attack, sometimes it's 5 attacks per second.

You should be able to parry players pretty easily though. Try directional instead of mouse parry with guildies.

we were testing, and even knowing which side the attack was coming from, and parrying it perfect, during wind up, after wind up, pre wind up, i can never get the parry into riposte to fire

Seems like a client side issue. I haven't had any problems at all. Not sure what could be causing it

Is your char an Oghmir? It is all bugged out for Oghmir. The zombies are borked for my alvarin as well.

bug: some undeads cant be parried, they always hit the block

also there are desynch bugs who are maybe client side when your CPU has a workout

It is recent and specifically Oghmir. I have read others talking about it on Discord, but no word on when it will be fixed. It may be fixed for new Oghmirs already, I do not know.
Except for undeads, they themselves are broken somewhat for everyone.
Plenty of desync still in game, for sure, but this problem I have on my Oghmirs and not my Alvarin, so I think it isn't desync in this instance.
