How to GB after Parry if opponent is out of range | Forums

[MostlyRages]

(FEEL FREE TO SKIP AHEAD)Having a lot of fun, great game. I highly reccomend switching around classes frequently for the most enjoyable experience. However I've recently taken a keen liking to the cancer that is orochi. I've been trying to avoid my inner weeb, but it's just too strong. SO ANYWAY (THIS IS THE PART WHERE I ACTUALLY STATE MY QUESTION) Are you just screwed (i know that's a broad and unjust statement for the following) if you parry someone and they're left out of range. I beleive I've seen orochi's rush and guard break after a parru, but I have been unable to do so. Failed to find another thread about this subject. If you can only do lights after an orochi parru that's understandable, but is their anyway to atleast get the two overhead lights in. I've also seen this with berserker, so help with either of these classes on this subject or any other class that has problems with this subject the tech is greatly appreciated.

For anyone looking for the answer I found it, you can get the top lights after a parry, but no gb AND THAT'S for certain classes (i.e. nobushi, probably lawbringer(?) and idk what else), but you're better off getting a deflect and light if assasin. I'd do some more testing in practice mode if you're planning to learn how to follow up a deflect, but I was just told to deflect (if you have the option) when you can't get a gb after a parry which is mainly nobushi.

But Nobushi can get gb after parries. I fought a nobushi who managed to parry 90% of my attacks, and managed to get a gb after every single parry, no matter what attack I did (from top/side, light/heavy). Not sure if was his equipment or mine that made it possible, or because I was a peacekeeper, but needless to say, I got destroyed. And yes, I did feint, a lot.

You have to press the guard break button immediately after you parry, without attempting to move or dash forward or anything, just parry and push gb.

And even if you do this perfectly, some classes will sometimes be out of range when you parry them, these are nobushi, lawbringer, kensei, valkyrie and shugoki I believe.

Yeah im saying if you parry a nobushi you're more than likely not gonna be able to get the gb off, not the other way around, since you're a peacekeeper you would have been better off deflecting, however it just sounds like that guy was too gud, feelsbadman

Anyone with a long range weapon cannot get GB'd after you parry them, unless they are in a corner. If you have to dash forward to GB after a parry, they will be able to react. However, Warlord can parry into GB anyone as long as he lands the shield bash counter as it closes the gap between you and the opponent.

Oh, my bad then. And yeah, she was damn good. Ran in to another parry god like an hour ago... Just have no clue what to do against turtles who predicts feints...
