Best sheild for parry?

[void fog]

Give me top 3 best shields. (Tag me when u reply)

[cursive lance]

Buckler, Small Leather Shield and Caestus (not a shield but still good)

[visual shadow]

bro listed every answer except the correct one

[obtuse portal]

But caestus is fun to use :/

Cuz it's way lighter too

For early game, small leather shield is also good

[cursive lance]

Small shields have the most parry frames no?

[cursive lance]

Wdym for early game both of those are found in the same area

[visual shadow]

those are parry shields

which do but also have some of the most recovery

and on average worse stability than small shields

[obtuse portal]

I forgot where caestus was mb

I actually have no remembrance of where I found those fists

[cursive lance]

Oh you're right my bad

[visual shadow]

ban

[cursive lance]

😭

[dense crest]

"best shield for parry" not "best shield for blocking"

otherwise you just equip a black knight shield in your second shield slot and pull out a parry shield or caestus when not parrying

[visual shadow]

stability affects your stamina loss on missed/partial parries

[toxic pagoda]

iirc the llewellyn is one of the better small shields

[wind yoke]

Iron round shield for parrying

[obtuse portal]

It's pretty good yea

I use the Caestus for parrying even tho it ain't a shield lol

If I had to use a shield I would use small leather shield tho

Or llewellyn

[idle adder]

Parrying dagger, grass shield, black knight shield

[red roost]

Me when i purposefully spread misinfo online

[idle adder]

I just realized i misread the title.. i thought best shield only 🗿

But isnt parrying dagger better than buckler? In term of total parry window

[marble hazel]
