I ain't even mad, my own fault for being reckless and I paid for it, especially since he tried to parry and got lucky yet I ignored it. Now I know how to avoid it.
Dark Souls thread, any stories? Post builds.

Go for jumping attacks against baldur's they're unparryable

I parry jumping attacks all the time

I usually just dance around then until they attack, which I then roll. Or go really aggressive. Besides them holding their rapiers up, they shield is small enough to go offensive.

It's like choosing charmander. Oh well, hopefully my new Fire Mail Breaker will give me the edge when I get back from work.

I heard magic wasn't very good in this game, so I thought it was the perfect time to do magic. Bloodborne tired me out of my usual dexfag build.

If they block, kick their shield. It works when they bring their rapiers up too

In my very first invasion I walked backwards off a bridge and died.
