Parry people (namely Duelists and Black Knight, the 'only' classes with those) don't use Shields or Guard often enough due to how it nullifies Evasion or sometimes puts them at disadvantage because they know you're using a Gigantys.
I wish Gigantys was a weapon of no crit but high non-crit damage too, as Spo said. That would certainly be more fitting overall. Not hitting with Gigantys puts you at a major disadvantage, and missing is already really easy for non-Katanas... because by investing in STR, or atleast the bare minimum to be able to wield it, you'll be giving up on SKI/LUC, which pretty much bosses around your Hit ratio. And how dodge works nowadays, it makes this weapon impossible to be used without Plisfa's Masochism.
And that's super boring, given this is a 10* weapon. You can't even hit monster NPCs, hell.
Just to let you know, Gigantys' heavy swing guard breaks, so it does ignore parries in its entirety, allowing you to attack safely from the front of a duelist or black knight without proccing eviter or stalemate ever, even if they are not guarding.
