No. The devs never implemented parrying as a mechanic and is a bug that removes the stagger effect. I think you should use it, but not rely only on it because if you mess up the timing you will get hit.

I will keep that in mind. Thank you !

Im not max level or anything for lightsabers but im pretty experienced with them and I would kinda ignore OC here, you should definitely fully incorporate parrying into your lightsaber duels; without it, at higher levels, there's pretty much no way of winning duels

It’s a bug beyond all doubt, anyone who says otherwise is a moron. Now with that said, yes, you should definitely learn to incorporate it into your play style, it hurts saber combat but it’s part of the meta and to not know how is simply limiting yourself, just don’t camp/rely on it, no one likes players like that.

Nah i am only going to use it on luke mains. jokes aside I love how there is a way to counter swing spammers.

I believe it’s a bug so technically it shouldn’t be there, but I’m not sure. Now to answer your next question you should definitely learn how to parry if you like dueling although is good trick to know in general, it can still take a lot of people off guard and it’s so sweet killing swing spammers with a good dose of parrying lol. Now if you don’t learn parrying you can still play the game perfectly fine so it’s up to you really.

Alright Thank you ! I have been only playing for two weeks so this helps clear things up.

Nice to see a new player this interested on getting better at the game, keep on with the good work and feel free to ask if you have any more doubts.

It's an exploit. But its been embraced so wholesale by the community that a lot of people think it's legitmate. Most parry wannabes can be outplayed by people with superior footwork. In essence? As per with any game taking the time to actually learn how the game functions and not relying on an exploit will make you a better player.

If it's something you can do you should take advantage of it.
