It is impossible for me to parry other players in DS2, any tips?
In the first game I was rather good with it.

I prefer medium shields over small shields
I also go 2handed and dualwielding

all tips are welcome

some attacks are unparriable, and the part of the animation that you parry is a bit different now

medium shields are on of the toughest to parry with

parries became harder to do in 2 when compared to 1
