‪Ayyy, it's finally my time to complain about #silksong. While i love the game dearly, i just got to act 2. After defeating the boss i got into a very cog-heavy area and tried parkouring my way through it.
However, every third dive at the mobile cog things would end up with the "parry/pogo" ding, but then it would still damage and reset me. That was quite unpleasant.
Is it a skill issue guys? I wouldn't know, but that kinda was my first real "damn that is getting kinda meh..." moment.

@zahatikoff Try using the ravager crest for extra attack range. Although I also struggled. It's still doable with others, even the wanderer crest that reduces range.

@Damdy it's just weird. It's as if at some very specific angle the force they apply to the character to get into the "rough area from where you can jump wherever you need to" goes through the actual cog

Edit:
Hypothesis 2, I miss the cog teeth and hit the thing just right so I touch 2 hit boxes

@zahatikoff it happens in hollow knight too. I believe there's a slight delay between hitting and gaining upwards momentum, so you hit down but your hitbox touches the spikes before you go up. Just takes getting used to. Can be annoying though for sure.
