so i've been going on and on lately about a new theory to countering. my theory is that if you raise your shield and attack straight after their weapon rebounds, you can counter attack and your next weak attack will be stronger. As i promised i have recorded a video HOWEVER, idk what to think of it now as the Leo Ring does not boost the damage done. However, there is also a...say 20%-30% increase in damage, more or less. So, what do you guys think? Maybe this isn't countering, but a different mechanic we could dub, 'Rebounding'? This is something i doubt we have stored in our archives of data and i doubt we should just ignore this and wait for some other guy to 'discover' this.

the graphics are a bit trippy but with my falchion +15 or so, i hit about 237 on the Bloathead. When i do my 'counter' i hit 332 or so. The Leo does not change the damage, the difference between the two hits is about 105 damage.
