The Realm of Shadows.
The shadowy outline of a twisted forest casts a dark gloom here. Ravenwoods and blackthorns spread
out from a cleared circular area in every direction. A canopy of battling branches twist together
overhead, scattering the little available light into a twilit gloom. The grass below is cool to
the touch, and littered with thorny vines and sharp broken branches. Tendrils of shadow pass
through and around the trees, the waves of inky blackness seeming to move like a living creature.
The air warps and distorts in every direction, revealing glimpses of locations within and near the
Glomdoring. In the shape of an open palm, a metallic sigil lies here. A sigil in the shape of a
small, rectangular monolith is on the ground.
You see exits leading north, northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest, up, and down.

So I thought entangled and paralysis stopped shifting parrying but it doesn't seem to be the case, and other's thought the same thing, so the question is What exactly stops you from being able to shift where you are parrying?
Unknown2010-05-24 15:43:33
Being prone for one, afflictions like cracked elbow impact it as well. Removing the offending arm. You can adjust parry while off eq/bal, but not stance.
Rael2010-05-24 15:45:14
Maybe if your arm breaks and you unwield your weapon. As Kurama pointed out in the log, oops.

Also you have two questions.

"What stops parry" and
"What exactly stops you from being able to shift where you are parrying?"

well the real question is what stops you from shifting parry, it was poorly phrased so I edited it to clarify
Unknown2010-05-24 16:26:54
Being asleep or stunned seems to be the only thing that really stops it, but more testing may be needed.
Ssaliss2010-05-24 17:54:01
I've honesty got a hard time seeing that as a bug. Shifting the focus of your parrying is, to me, like a mental note saying "I'll parry my head now", it doesn't actually cause you to move your weapons. If, however, you don't stop parrying even when you're paralysed or entangled, I'd say that'd be a bug.
