Perhaps this has some merit, as this ring can shut down caster builds a quirk to ignore it's effects in PvP would make sense.

I got it, but you are an idiot

I think the point here is that it's misphrased. The parry is automatic right, so technically it happens with every shield, weapon, etc... maybe it's just a phraseology thing?

It works fine I tested it with all my medium size shields and it worked, I also tried with a few weapons and it worked too, I used a ps3 and I was testind it at Shrine of Amana

I can support the fact that this ring doesn't enable spell parries for shields. My testing with a Clerics Parma got a 100% success rate (out of 100 spells) in the Shrine of Amana, while using a Crimson Parma I had a success rate of about 70%. This leads me to believe that it is simply proc-ing at the same time I attempted to parry.

Alrighty Fex thanks for the info I'll test it some more later today to be sure. I'll let ya know afterwards.

But that's what the game actually says it does... if it is broken, then we should add a note that it's bugged, not remove the intended effect.

But all the game says is "can deflect spells". That's not saying it grants spell parry to everything, it's saying it has a chance to deflect spells passively. Remove the line saying it grants everything spell parry and edit the note about its durability to specify manual spell parries with spell parry shields (and fix the grammatical error in the process).

works

*2 Yes, over 2 years and I came back to fix it.

All I can say is, get a life dude.

returning again a year later to point out that I'm just awful at Dark Souls.

returning at the turn of the year to add that my ***** is just extremely small, which I distract myself from by saying that dark souls is rubbish

Dark Souls has rubbish in it, like the item called: "Rubbish" but the itself is in fact, not rubbish.

more like Trubbish

*replying to the trubbish comment* Trubbish actually has a use though.

ive 100% every soulsborne game and i upvote this

I see you're a man of culture as well.

Look closely at a larger image, and compare it to Vendrick’s shield. They are similar, but not the same. Vaati was mistaken.

Yes instead, they are literally identical. The best comparison you can do is between the model game of the Shield of Want in DS3 and the thumbnail of this ring datamined from its cut content.
