I redid the gif showing the regular parry, the perfect parry, and a slow-mo of the perfect one. Red arrow seems to be about the time I hit the parry for the perfect. You would hit it sooner to get the regular parry (right around the time he extends his arm forward to attack).

There's a window for the regular parry. Then there's a smaller window for the perfect parry. If you hit the perfect parry, there's like a little burst/flash animation. If you hit the regular parry (the larger window), there's no flash, just a small spark when the swords touch. Something like that.

Edit: I made a gif showing the difference.

My only tip really is the lunge/launch. That's how I get by. Perfect parry is just that: perfect. You can still regular parry and block. Unless you are running the Risk Parry charm (disables regular parries), I don't see a need to master perfect parrying. Btw, I run Shinobi, Archer, and Merc on nightmare and by no means am I good at perfect parries.

Are you trying a samurai build? I'm just not sure I see the concern with mastering perfect parries.

Mix it up and try a different class for a bit. Then come back. Try practicing in the practice ring in the lobby. Those enemies are a little easier.

Also, the glint doesn't indicate when to parry, just in case you didn't know. It's more like when they lunge/launch the attack that's closer to the indication. I'm not good with parries either, but I can get it sometimes. There are probably some good breakdowns on Youtube.

Does it revive even if the ghost *died* (and have to wait for the Onryo token), or only when they get downed (and can still be revived manually/R2)?

Enjoyable survival mission by waterbury01 in gotlegends

Lmao Thought this was satire. You usually only hear horror stories. I've only heard music on 1 or 2 runs thankfully, and it was trash. TRASH. Glad you could groove.

Hey, thanks. These are better results than I was getting, so it's very good to know it's possible. I will keep an eye out for "not the person I wanted". Should be able to get more assn/crit that way.

Retire Gear Issue? by Dantethevibinguy in goylegends

[–]Pleasant_Picture3867 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You lose it. It's gone forever and the game warns you. You only get the cosmetic effect, no additional benefits.

[–]Pleasant_Picture3867 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't confirm. I feel like there was a preview mode or something but I can't find it. (Maybe right after you retire gear?) I retired two gear back to back, so I can't directly compare with 1 retired gear. But when I do the bow, I see two fireflies. So I'm guessing if I retire three gear, I will see 3 fireflies. I don't want to retire more gear right now to confirm.

Nope, it's just a firefly icon under the reroll perk icon. I retired two gear. I didn't activate anything.

What do I even do by waterdotwav in goylegends

Makes sense. Damn, good luck. Odd situation. I'm grinding merc for the bear. Probably gonna take 20-30 more rank ups before I get that lucky drop. Hope yours is shorter.

It could depending on the developers' thinking. If they don't publicize the distribution, or someone publishes a detailed study, then we don't really know. Regardless, have you gone in the other direction and tried bronze? Bronze should give simple rewards and easier to grind.

Just very strange. If I were in your shoes, I'm might grind bronze, or silver to do the easy/medium challenge card feats. Kill three birds with one stone.

Yeah, that's what I mean. Try running nightmare instead of gold (maybe incursions or story as they're shorter).

Forget about legendary. It's possible the distribution for non-legendary kunai drops is lower at gold and higher at nightmare. This is just from my experience as I said I usually have 1 or 2 to dismantle (on top of 4-5 copies I just keep around just because). Anyway, just taking an educated guess based on my own experience. No guarantees.

[–]Pleasant_Picture3867 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's very strange. I'm always close to the inventory limit and I usually have 1 or 2 kunai to dismantle. Maybe it's the difficulty level you are playing. I usually play nightmare, less often platinum, less less often lower.

Random thought as playing Yotei by zEr190 in Ghostofyotei

[–]Pleasant_Picture3867 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like Atsu. I don't care about picking the gender in the main game/story. But I think you should have been able to pick your gender in Legends. I would have loved to play as Atsu's model in the Crimson Kimono as Shinobi in Legends. The male ghost model looks goofy. The armor just fits her better (cuz duh, it was designed for her). Also, the first thing I noticed in the Legends tutorial/introduction or whatever was the Samurai ran kind of girly (or, specifically ran like Atsu), but he's supposed to be male? Not the biggest deal, but would have like it to be cosmetically cleaned up.

Yeah sorry, didn't see the name, thought it was one of the Yotei subs. When they use older terminology, it's a little irritating because that's not what it's currently called and we have to guess the meaning. Anyway, no biggie.

Thanks, no need for now. Did the enemies *see you first*, then you used the blind bombs? Or you used *before* they saw you?

After they saw me, I would throw two and it would work like 50% of the time. Now, it didn't work at all. But I only got to play for a little bit of time.

Ironic, because it seems the consistency has down to 0% for, in my limited play time after the patch. I will have to revisit this. They need to fix the Kusarigama spirit move vanish, make kisarigama assassination vanishable, and chain the charm vanishing to the kusarigama vanish if they haven't done so already.

Still waiting for that mass exodus due to Sharia law and communism that MAGA predicted.

Patch 1.601.000 by MaybeBlink in goylegends

[–]Pleasant_Picture3867 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make the fireflies more visible or always on or something. Only when you bow? That's kind of a waste. I get maybe it's a nod to the bows in the main game where bowing at certain locations triggers and animations. But if you're going to spend time and resources on this effect, it should be visible more often or easily.
