How Parry ACTUALLY Works - Elden Ring

Sometimes i feel like you are secretly just vsauce using an ai generated ranni voice.

Yeeeeah I ain't gonna do all that. Happy for those with God like internet connections.

Funny story, i fought someone who was trying to pary me but little did they know, HULK SWORD🔥SMAAAAAAAAASH!!!!!🔥

I really did just beat the whole game with out parying didn't i?😑 Well ... that would've been the smart thing to do 😔

Why do you sound like round table but a chick😂

Well made







FOR THE ALGO

The add popped up for dominos right after she said i know what your thinking 😅 perfect timing

Parrying is a combat mechanic in elden ring


Peaple die when they get killed

I've never liked the PVP in FromSoft games due to the terrible latency issues every game they make has.

I would say that I used parry on a 2 % of the time, I started as samurai and once I got the shield barricade I equipped it on one of the golden shield of soldier of godrick once I did that physical damage was just a joke 🤣🤣

Ds3 did parrying so good they had to make it suck ass in ER

parry in this game can never be what it was in dark souls, just because of the opportunity cost of not using an ash of war. at best it's something you keep in your back pocket on the twin bird shield if you're 2handing a weapon and you have a solid connection and opponent is really predictable like always attacking out of hitstun. in those cases and only in those cases, you can swap really quick for a guaranteed parry. and since backstab angles were improved it's not bad to just wear the dagger talisman, backstabs are quite common in elden ring, and for some reason when gankers see you do a critical they always immediately lose 50 IQ points and start wildly swinging at your invincible body, hoping you'll come out of iframes during their damage frames and you won't be able to dodge in time. but instead what always happens is I just immediately ash of war and kill the whole party with waves of darkness, so there's that. parries can definitely save you in invasions. you're getting ganked by 3 players, and one of them spams moonveil in the most predictable situations like they literally always do, it's almost as if every moonveil user is just a different alt account of the same person and you just keep running into him over and over again. if the connection's good, then parry can be pretty solid. and for some builds there's just not much cost to having a parry shield, since you kinda want the twin bird shield or the bleed resistance shield anyway, just as a stat stick. stat circle?

Her accent switches and I can’t stop laughing 😂

All very nice info to know, but damn was it distracting hearing Ranni go through what must have been 5 or 6 different voices and accents, lol.

What about when i parry but the game doesn't and registers it and instead blocks BUT against PvE AI?

I learned to predict parry when i was a noob in ds1 its always been satisfying to land parries in pvp. There are things that are way easier to parry like greatsword R1s still feels great.

As for how much i parried on my first playthrough aside from pvp i think it was mainly only crucible knights that i parried and still to this day i continue the practice of parrying them into the dirt

Am I the only one who misses Super Parrying from DS2? Getting to party with my Zweihander was an awesome feeling.

well this was an interestingly condescending bit of unknown knowns. Good explanation though.

I was taking a shower while watching this… trying to parry the water… what she says it true it doesn’t work. 😔

I can't believe you used bugs bunny lost in time generic at the start, just got bombed with a random nostalgia !

0%, because my parry tool of choice were curved swords. Yes, I am very incompetent, how could you tell?

Latency was much easier to adjust to in ds1 I'd wager.
See wizard, time dodgeroll to avoid darkbead early.
See bigpadre,dodge zweihander a click early.
See havelmonster,use poison as their resistances arent great.
And often just use poison if you suspect the opponent.
Makes overall damage calculable since it all visibly tallies onscreen. So if you think they're the type cheap enough to be ping playing you,they're probably runnin a 99cent build or worse.
Kinda obvious when you hit for % bleed damage for 1000s of damage which would one hit ko any max level player. Still possible to take them though,especially as a lot of them just raise their hp to 99999 and forget about stuff like poise in favor of playin fashionsouls or still tryin to be under midroll weight even with 99 endurance.
If you're in the woods,may even get a buddy to help.
Good chance they'll disconnect though once they get to a fine sliver of a healthbar though.
Thats still easily twice your maximum.

I just backstab or use magic and I only rarely parry in dark souls 1 elden Ring sucks

"you can't parry the water droplets from the shower" Oh how you underestimate my parry skill.

Hahaha, you are such a genius to write these lines

This is the first video I've seen on this channel after searching "Elden Ring Timing".
Not quite what I was looking for, but this was awesome.
Love your content!

Bro how’d she know I haven’t showered today?

Oh that’s right, I play souls games…..

Thank you for the information, I shall now go and build a parry build so that I may do my best Dante impression and scream ROYAL GUARD at the top of my lungs after every successful parry. Also it's really funny when the ai activates it's drunken Scottish accent.

Why did Ranni keep changing accents randomly? 😂

Parried in Demon's, 1, 2 and Bloodborne. 3 seemed off when I would try so I deemed it not worth it and I was using greatshields by then anyway. In Elden Ring, once the game told me about guard counters, and I used it to both cause damage, stagger and a riposte. I knew that I would never parry again. 😂

I am a masochist so I find myself addicted to Left handed Shamshir parry’s. It is the most do or die test of your skill, since it barely has any active frames and requires absolute precision.

And this is exactly why I do not actively seek out PvP in these games. Never invaded with the express intent to kill someone for my own personal gain, never will. Just not my idea of fun. Oh yeah and getting hit by an attack that clearly missed and / or getting hit with a parry that happened two seconds ago and was faced in the opposite direction is not actually one of my favorite passtimes.

If she knew what I was thinking she would run for the hills.

Parry almost never works, either in pve or pvp.
Guard counter works better, is more reliable

why not just block attacks u need to time it fuck that trash no Ty

us mages we dont need to use parry we use magic spells

What button to parry bro?

I only use it for crucible knights and "heavy" knights making PvE a lot easier.😅

Why are your videos so good lol

The stat proc build up even on whiff has always been a really lame feature of souls pvp.

Ive never relied on parry in as ny souls games. Ever since Demon's Souls back on the ps3, i relied on sword and shield. Eventually, thanks mostly to Bloodborne, i started to rely on rolling.

Only enemies I felt parrying made quality of life better with is that one Tree knight in the prison in lymgrave, you know the one.
And certain bell baring hunters.

Investing yourself in a completely different skillset, apps and programs to become more efficient in the optional PvP mode of a game is probably the most try-hard thing i have ever seen.

If I'm brutally honest, I have around 100 hours in the game and I haven't used a shield or parry in all that time. My only hope is rolling and my reflexes, which sadly are not enough to time parrying.

if elden ring had sekiro type parrying, it might be the perfect combat in a game for me. Unfortunately, the way it is I prefer sekiro's combat way more, but elden ring is still a lot of fun.
