I elaborated on this another comment, but long story short, quick parry and composite parry are entirely identical outside of two cases. While sprinting and mid dodging, quick parry is slower than composite parry. You can check frame data for parries here naraka.wiki/Combat

I personally run full stamina in the left, top and right glyphs, and full grapple range in the bottom glyphs. For solos that's a workable glyph board, but if you really want to minmax, you probably want to also use some rage/dmg, rage/dmg taken, rage/s and cooldown reduction glyphs. It sort of depends on your character, Takeda for example really likes full CDR glyphs so he can pull off certain ToDs with his V1, since CDR affects how fast he can use his furen charges back to back. Another example is that Ziping gets a dash that doesn't cost any stamina after using her F, so she can get away with sacrificing some stamina glyphs for rage/s, rage/dmg and rage/dmg taken, but wants at least a few CDR glyphs to have her F more regularly to compensate You can either try to minmax around your character like that, or just be lazy like me and be full stamina, full grapple range warrior

@@taco2718 Thank u grandmaster Takao

Want Polyphia next time? :b

It does indeed. Spacing, knowing common release timings and understanding the range/speed of focus attacks are major pre-requisites to hold dodge more consistently. These are not things that can be easily picked up, but it'll come with continuous practice over time, and in combination with these parries will end up being really rewarding

There isn’t any difference now that’s just what he’s using out of preference

They are identical in the absolute majority of cases. However there are two specific scenarios where they're different, and that's when mid dodging and sprinting. During either of those two actions, quick parry is still slower than composite parry. You can check parry timings here naraka.wiki/Combat If you keep holding shift and a movement key after hold dodging, you enter sprinting state, in which quick parry is slower. I don't actually know how commonly this affects dodge parries without focus hold, but I prefer to just use composite parry to make sure. Might totally not be necessary, just a habit I've developed

@@taco2718 Thank you takao for linking actual frame data. I'm only picking Naraka up fairly recently and still confused due to conflicting info about quick and composite parry.

@@glisteningDiamond2512 No problem! Quick parry used to be extremely bad, so there are some people/videos out there with the outdated opinion that it shouldn't be used, but these days it does indeed work quite well. Such type of outdated info is unfortunately still common with Naraka. Regardless, I'd keep composite parry active for the two edge cases where quick parry is slower (and to discourage yourself from button mashing kek)

@@taco2718 just played some match using scissor parry now, and it's much quicker than using quick parry, thank u so much!

Appreciated! Yeah 120ms is quite high unfortunately, makes dodging focus attacks really difficult in the first place, on top of delaying when your parry becomes active. Could definitely mess with a few if not most of these. Wishes for more servers have been forwarded to the devs plenty of times, but who knows if and when they might listen
