This is kind of how poise should of worked. Instead of not flinching to enemy attacks, it should of just ignored an instance of damage. Higher damage means higher percentage of ignoring. It’s durability would then go down each time an attack “deflected”. Basically giving you extra tankiness, but not immunity to daggers and small arms.

Finally, immolation has a use!

you didn't include that walking has parry frames, but if you move while targeting something, it will reflect spells (it will reflect shrine of amana priestesses shots; no further testing)

The real reward for beating the sunken king dlc. Comes with a free crown! Also, the parry thing is working in Sotfs. I bounced ten shots with my mace of Insolence. I'm not that lucky to have 50% 10 times in a row. Trust me.

So for me the red phantoms in frigid outskirts almost always get the rings effects. Idk what the true percentage is, but whenever Feeva or I tried to attack them with spells, they got deflected. Or it's just, "let's make the ****tiest area in DS history even more BS by adding spell resistant NPCs on NG+ cycles." And before you ask, I complete every NG cycle with all bosses, even Lud & Zallen so no evading that for me.

Is the affected by the bracing knuckle ring?

"Grants the ability of spellparry for all weapons, shields and greatshield bash."
This is completely untrue and was proven so 3 years ago. Why is it still here?
