    Parrying: the other story - during mob TP moves

    Has anyone noticed that sometimes you're able to parry during a monster's WS without it showing in your log?

    Looking over my parry skillup screenshots, I have some examples to provide:

    Pecking Flurry - G Colibri:

    Battle Dance - Orcs

    And before anyone starts trying to point out or flame on me that I'm dumb and have filters set or something, this is how my filters are and always have been:

    Bhaflau Remnants 2F Flans:

    What's this show so far, to me:
    -Pecking Flurry is indeed multi hit, and you can get hit + parry at the same time
    -Battle Dance is two hits, and somehow can be parried AOE'd.

    You'll never see a "Aux parries the attack with his weapon." if you parry a TP move.

    IIRC, a Gaurd proc on a 1-hit WS can result in the log telling you it simply "missed".

    Tsuko is correct, but furthermore guard can proc on a multihit WS and it'll say it missed yet still deal full damage for the nonguarded hits, same for parry(though for parry it only applies to 1 hit ones afaik)

    Yah the only way to tell if you parried a WS is if you get a skillup or if you don't take correct dmg.

    Mob's multi-hit TP move can also be easily identified by looking on how many shadows it can absorb.
