Hah funny you mention it because that's exactly what I tested this morning. Stagger locking the knights in iron keep on ng+ you'll be able to see the magic as their animation drops frames to make it seem like a different faster move erupting the closer the A.I. is to death. It's the bullshit factor.

Today I died to a knight with a spear. I would prefer to die on the end, but what happened was his attack completely missed me. I was slightly worthy though, as his hand moving the spear a foot brushed my character dodgng and then lovingly tallied the entire weapon into the blow. The. Bullshit. Factor.
