"perfect" deflects with LB1 is actually retarded too, because as you no longer have an animation for parrying like you did in dark souls. You can literally spam LB1 as well without having to time anything and you get a perfect streak of deflects. Every time you see an enemy winding up an attack literally start pressing LB1 and you get perfect deflect every time. Same during enemy combo attacks, literally just spam LB1, no need to time anything. And the best part is you never get punished for spamming it.
