#You can't parry if you're invincible

I've found I like using the chip that gives you invincibility after a perfect parry, it's nice for boss fights and being able to fight recklessly for a few beats after feels really satisfying.

It seems like the game is coded such that parries only interact with attacks that are about to hit you, and since you're invincible you're not able to parry an attack. It would be nice to be able to parry these attacks to build stun or score.

I've also encountered some strange interactions with invincibility and parry challenges for the same reason, a perfect parry leads to not being able to block the rest of it so you don't get the counter hit since you didn't technically do the challenge

you're not invincible if you parry, only if you Directional Parry
the 'good' and 'perfect' only indicates if you did it on time with the beat or not, but Direcional Parries apply invulnerability to the next beat and a bunch of other stuff

sorry, I meant directional parry, not perfect parry

I noticed this when I was farming parries for the achievement mural. It would be nice to still be able to parry while invincible so we can get points or build more stun.

Ditto. I've actually had to stop using Directional Parries because they hurt the combat flow more than they help because the invincibility interacts oddly with certain mechanics, most notably Rhythm Parry Attacks.

Hopefully they allow multi-parries for D parry
