His attack could not be before the activation, since I was at so little life that I would have died if that was the case. I got the revenge overshield before he hit me and so revenge was activated and he should have been parried.
edit: I can somehow see it in the quoted text only. I see what you mean, but what I said above still stands, my health was too low for me to survive if the attack came before the revenge activation. If there's a delay between the activation and the parry window that would explain it, but that's also something I would consider a bug.
Yeah maybe there is a bug where if an attack is already far enough completed it won't be affected by the knockdown / parry pulse on Revenge activation but the damage will remove the Revenge shield. We're talking split second stuff here.
This might be why your shield appears so briefly, it's almost impossible to pause the video on the right spot to even see that you ever got a Revenge shield, and it's gone when the blow that kills you comes in. Basically the shield was removed by an early attack that missed the knockdown / parry pulse but did damage that was still applied to your Revenge shield.
That would be unfair and messed up if it is the case, but I can see it being possible if the game records damage taken / shield activation / parry + knockdown activation slightly out of sync with each other. Hope that makes sense, it does in my head, lol
