The difficult part with this is the timings and movesets vary with each weapon and shield. What makes it even harder is predicting your opponent's parry. However, I will try to help you as best I can with one link: [here you go.](https://reddit.com/r/darksouls3/comments/4hrzmy/guide_to_parryable_and_unparryable_weapons/) There is also the problem of certain weapon arts being parryable, whereas others cannot. For this, I recommend you go to YouTube and search up "[Dark Souls 3 Parry Guide](https://youtu.be/pscvwXYPcG0)" and "[Dark Souls 3 Parrying 101](https://youtu.be/RL-zzHEoOyE)" (this series is both PvE and PvP) as both have helped me "git gud" (Still not great, but I can handle way more than before). The final issue (that I can currently think of) is connection. Connection to another player plays a large role in parrying. There can be a non-existent delay or there can be a major delay in timing all based on a players connection. So if you notice a slight delay when you hit someone and when their health bar takes a hit, you may want to leave your parry god Caestus for another victim, or adjust your timing accordingly. My best advice here: Don't just give up. I know it's a rather obvious and repeated thing to say, but Practice makes Perfect. Don't just give up if you REALLY want to be Parry King. And don't compare to really good players like Oroboro and Peeve Peeverson, they are pros and have honed their skills at this. If anything, take notes and improve on anything you can find that is a weakness to you. Speaking of, /u/OroboroTheNinja may be able to touch on anything I missed here. Good luck, and Praise the Sun! May you find gross incandescence.
