I'm not sure what you mean as guard breaks are different from parries.

He means after a parry into a GB. For some classes it is harder to do this chain. For example the Orochi has a short ranged GB. If you parry someone you have to dodge forward and then GB, which is two separate actions and can be stopped before you get to the enemy. Other classes like the kensei/peacekeeper have a chain in their moveset to do a dodge GB as a single action.

Ah, I see what you mean now.

nobushi and shugoki will ALWAYS be out of range (as long as they are not backed up against a wall)

kensei is out of range depending on your positioning.

it is what it is...
its annoying as punishing those classes is hard, but hey

So parrying is essentialy usless, thanks thats what I needed to know .. back to the drawing board with warden cuz I dont the **** know what to do now .. I watched numerous training videos that went in the lines if - you dont have cheap combos that deal 60% of enemie shealt (nobushi) you must masster the fundamentals and work with them - one of them being aprry leads always to guaranteed GB, now that I have realzied there is no such thing It makes me sad cuz it invalidated all I have learned so far
.I parry guy is too far away, normal attacks are not guaranteed, charge is not guaranteed ANYTHIGN is not guaranteed ... yay

As a warden aganist nobushi, after parry, you can get in guaranteed zone attack. Its not great, but its not the worst, since it does ok damage and she doesnt have that much health.

Which still doesnt convince me that trying to parry is useless, given the state of the ''servers'' and the non-resposne time the payoff for parrying is not there, simple blocking will do the job nicely ... god damnit this game is so sad .. if this is not addresed this game will be a ghost town like evolve in tops 2 months

If safe punish for roughly 15-20% health isnt good enough for you, than sure. I was personally pretty pissed about the connection issues in closed beta, but i have to admit it got way better in open beta withen population got higher and number of poor latency people i met dropped dramatically.

If you parry a light attack you can actually hit her with a guaranteed top heavy. Just do it 3 times and she is dead
