With the Tyrannid warrior and some other elites, they have multi-hit combos where you cannot "perfect parry" the first swing, but can perfect parry the final hit of the combo.

THIS. You are right brother. I understand the game is new, and people may be overthinking the system but tyranid warriors with whips and swords have combo attacks, there's no way to "perfect parry" and stop these combos but to get you on the right track to anticipating their next attack, in which like you said, their last attack if parried, will stagger them.

1000% this. I'm pretty sure the game doesn't make any sort of distinction between Parry and "Perfect Parry". The gunstrike parry followup is purely whether or not the specific part of the enemy's combo was interrupted. It's why you can parry the first part of the Whip Warrior's attacks, but need to parry his second attack (backswing) to get the gunstrike.

I agree with your point about the “Block” defense weapons not having enough stats to compensate for the lack of survival and damage potential of perfect parries. HOWEVER, I think it’s important to remind everyone that perfect parries aren’t the only way to open up gun strikes. Perfect DODGES also open up gun strike opportunities vs ALL enemies, plus the added bonus of not accidentally hitting parry instead of dodge for red highlighted attacks. Using a block stat weapon is likely an alternative play style for people who don’t want to parry or are simply too bad at the timing to utilize it, so fully utilizing dodges instead with some added stats could prove more beneficial to some. 😊👍
@Blackthorn869
@Blackthorn869 3 ай бұрын
I find that for certain classes, dodges and rolls are more viable than parries, because they open the enemies up for the Gun Strike while simultaneously taking you out of the line of attack for some follow up strikes.

A simpler to way to explain it for me is the bulwark parry animation raises his shield then swings sword upwards, you want to try and make contact with the enemy with the sword swing part of the animation and not the raising the shield part. Meaning you should hit the parry button earlier than expected to get to the sword swing part of the animation when the enemy is going to make contact with you.

The 1st Swing on @10:55 is still a perfect parry. The slow-mo effect still confirms a Perfect. Unfortunately, it seems that not all multi-swing attacks can stagger with a Perfect Parry. Perfect Parries can lead into a Gun Strike. Gun Strikes always lead into a hard stun. However, Gun strikes have no i-frames so its not always safe commit into it when your Perfect Parry does not lead into a Stun. Carnifexes, Hive Tyrants, HelBrutes (with Raveners + Lictors) have multi-hit chains that are Perfect Parryable but unsafe to Gun Strike into because they do not Stagger on 1st swing.

Correct. The warrior for instance has 4 different attacks and one of them (starting with 1 sword wide above its right shoulder) doesn't trigger a gun strike nor a knock back on a perfect parry and lets it continue the combo chain unless you perfect parry the second hit.

I finally got my vanguard to level 25 last night. The road to the top with a vanguard can be pretty frustrating because they absolutely are glass cannons, but for a good chunk of playing him I used him as a long range support guy with the battle rifle who would fuck you up with my combat knife up close, no melta to be seen. It makes an interesting support vanguard build who flies in to save the day whenever someone goes down, and flies out afterwards whenever he’s getting overran. All that to say this: that build is very good at teaching/mastering close quarters encounters. In the thick of things you’re the squishiest close quarters character and you don’t have the big bulky weapons, you’re supposed to use your melta shotgun, which I did not have. There’s a simple combat loop in the melee portion of this game, that once I learned it, I went from usually going down whenever a bunch of captain guys were surrounding me (even worse when things like lictors or the burrow losers were around,) to basically being able to sustain myself inside of the middle of a horde of enemies completely surrounded indefinitely, and you can do it too! 1st: Finese weapon. Just pick the highest tier melee weapon you got, and look no further, finese is all you need your safety depends on this stat. (Pretend you’re now getting overrun,) this is the following gameplay loop that if you do it and get good at it, you’ll become almost impossible to kill in melee. It goes: Strong attack. Not light attack strong attack, or any combo, just use strong attack (running attack if your approaching them head on) This strong attack does 3 very important things for you, it creates space (and breathing room) in front of you. All units (including the captain level guys and even the lictor/burrow bitch) are staggered for a sec, since strong attacks break through guards EVERYTIME. 3, and this is the main thing btw, is a smaller unit will fall on the ground with a reticule signal over them which does something amazing for you, if you press the shoot button and your looking in that general direction, your character headshots that creature, killing them outright and producing 1 bar of shield.) That one strong attack left you with 3 options that are all surprisingly safe to make. Guys jumping at you and creating a blue ring of light are total freebies and you need to be able to 100%parry these guys from whichever angle they’re coming at you. The games audio clue is all you need, it’s a free shield point and s, I love whenever enemies do this move. First non negotiable option is parry whatever a nearby captain is throwing at you, it’s free Iframes, free headshot, stuns them for a bit, and the next few options are the make it or break it. It’s so critical having the finese weapon for this reason alone. 1st and best option is actually shoot that guy with the reticle, it’s fast, you’re invincible, and you get some health back along the way. Added bonus if you have a lot of temporary health going down, it’ll restore all of the temporary health while making you invincible while also restoring some shield while also killing an enemy. It’s a really powerful option! Option 2, roll back: delay shooting the guy to get a better position, it’s also invincible and you have more space and a bigger window of time to make a decision on how best to deal with the mob (roll back into grenade being my best one.). If you’re fighting multiple captains the roll back is probably what you want to do. 3: Shoot the guy on the ground, and swing your weapon at whichever enemy is CLOSEST to you. This is the worst option, but ammo can be hard to come but, and your melee weapon is if nothing else, great at killing smaller guys, and the ones closest to you…. Are the only ones attacking you…. The best way to use the melee weapon is to have the enemies funneling in one by one towards you, and you hit them as they come in killing them outright. Just aim your swings at whichever enemy is closing in on you and your light attacks will do all the work at zero cost of using ammo, and without needing to reload…. Just DONT FORGET TO SHOOT that guy, it’s just free health basically! This is the move I’d use if the group is more scattered rather than swarming… Gameplay loop goes: opener is strong attack/running attack (they accomplish the same thing. Pick one of the three options (the one that’s most appropriate…) and then in the middle of all of that, priority 1 is always going to be parrying what the other generals, and killing the blue ring jump guys. Soon as you feel slightly overwhelmed repeat the strong attack into the gameplay loop decision. My no melta having Vanguard become the hardest guy on the battlefield to kill, that’s about all there is to it.

But good info regardless for anyone who hasn’t, I’ve been playing tactical and use a gun with 60 rnds, I usually just side or back pedal while firing from the hop to kill swarms of enemies pushing me, I’ll parry any small enemy that performs a normal “non-indicated” attack and kill them while I fire, I also reload off any execution and get a full mag from them too so it’s honestly amazing for hordes of enemies

Knowing this makes the game so much more fluid and even gives you a better power fantasy as you feel unstoppable.

Balanced is in the game for players who are good at parrying and don’t need the extra assist fencing gives. Balanced weapons usually come with better stats than fencing. And block usually have the best stats out of all the types, but with the trade off of not being able to parry, which in my opinion is not worth it

Block works if you're using it for the stats, some have better cleave/dmg so they do better against trash mobs that you won't bother parrying much(just dodge, use run/dodge attack like knife shoulder tackle, and then gun strike on trashmob that's knocked over if needed). Although the top level block knife sucks against horde too. The problem is melee typically sucks at damage either way so increase dmg from block variant generally do not matter.
@webbc99
@webbc99 3 ай бұрын
So balanced I don't understand at all because the stat gain vs fencing is minimal, but the block weapons do have insane stats, if you look at something like the power sword, it attacks noticeably faster and does a lot more damage - it's very significant because you are able to make enemies finishable much quicker, which is very strong defensively since you gain the s and the armor back, and with tyrands especially the swarm of little ones will back off when you kill the leader, so you can just run in and kill it very quickly.

Great video brother! I found fencing/bulwark a breeze minute I unlocked second tier. Before that it was a struggle! And as you say being good at Dark Souls or Sekiro means little. Being good at God Of War tho is a game changer. I started thinking of the parry more like that and it has carried me through nicely so far. And I have moved into the later 2 difficulty settings now on Operations. The wind up in my honest opinion is counter productive to new players trying to learn the system. Use your eyes instead of that window, just use that as a warning it is incoming only! If you are new to any parry mechanic. Don't think you are limited to tactical/jack of all trades class. Try them all. I settled on bulwark after going through the others, but as the video and I just said....FENCING WEAPONS if struggling brothers!!! Anyway. Great video dude. Earned a sub 👏👏👏

From my own observations and experience playing, I don't think the parry system works quite how you've described. I don't think it's the timing of when you press the parry button that determines a normal vs a perfect parry. It's the attack itself. Looking at the video, you triggered the "normal parry" on the exact same attack animation every time. There are specific attacks that some enemies have that wont interrupt the attack chain and trigger the Gun Shot, no matter how precise you are. I could be totally wrong, but that's what it feels like it going on

parrying in this game reminds me of parrying in Ghost of Tsushima. Your time to parry is related to when your opponent takes that first action. So when the step back or move that arm up to make their strike, that's when you want to engage your parry.

I’ve been seeing what I think is a bug with the Bulwark and the parry. A couple of reddit posts even talked about how ppl are seeing a perfect parry where you trigger the shock grenade and it drops but you and the enemy just stand there with no animation and then the enemy can immediately follow up with an attack as they don’t actually get stunned but your Marine just kind of awkwardly stands there for a second. I’ve been playing with it on M&K and I find the only way to get as consistent as possible is to double tap the parry to avoid it. Regardless it’s still inconsistent compared to all the other classes I’ve tested on.

If you watch the footage here you can see he never gets a gunstrike counter from a right handed attack perfect parry. Its part of a 2 hit combo that he cant be staggered out of. Spartacus calls them as "normal parry" but you can see it is a perfect, because there is a slowdown effect and the sound cue. Do correct me if I am wrong

No, you 100% correct. You need to perfect parry a 2nd strike in a chain to trigger stagger state and be able to riposte with gun strike

@@leonidemelin1131 Correct, the first hit of this specific combo is only blockable and is followed by the same animations than another 2 hits attack in the moveset that you can parry.

To know you have done a perfect parry it will leave you with the gun strike target, that’s when you know it’s perfect. When you see the blue parry icon double tap your parry button to get a perfect. If there is no blue icon but the enemy attack, you have to hit your parry button as soon as the enemy starts his attack animation. When you fight the lichtor , when you see his blue icon double tap parry as he is halfway thru his lunge towards you, once you get the perfect parry then keep pushing towards him and time your parry on each of his attack until he runs away then time the blue icon parry attack again. Bulwark is the only class I use and when your surrounded use shield bash to make distance. Here is a good tip if your surrounded, dodge then melee right after the dodge, it will give you a gun strike every time to get that armour back up.

To parry on bulwark with m+kb is pretty easy. Just create a macro of the parry input and bind it to one of your mouse buttons. Then you tap it perfectly every time.

Always thought the perfect parry window was closer to when the attack actually hits your character, good to know the parry animation needs a tiny bit of time to get perfect parry to happen... and that each weapon has a different parry animation timing! Thanks

When I play as Bulwark and Assault... I kinda prefer perfect dodges and gun strike ripostes. I realize I have more survivability and get executions easier. I have the power sword and Hammer geared towards blocking. I know it's unorthodox but damn do I love it
@Cogbyrn

The only thing you're missing in that scenario is parry-killing gaunts/swarms of chaff. I've found it to be integral to surviving in the middle of a pack on higher difficulties, though if you have teammates cleaning house while you block it would still work fine. Either way, I've been meaning to integrate more perfect dodge as Assault.

I'm on mouse and keyboard and have changed the button to parry/block to be on the side of my mouse (MB 5, where I have my thumb anyway). It makes it way easier to parry in time that way for me. I'd recommend this in most, if not all cases

Blocking does have a purpose on Bulwark and that is closing the distance on ranged enemies. Combine that with the perk that reflects that damage back to nearby minoris enemies and watch them die as you advance on those high DPS ranged guys.

I have a bulwark at lvl 23 but I feel frustrated to play it. Problem is that it's different set of muscle memory compared to the other class's parry. In the middle of combat it's very easy to hold the parry button for a millisecond. I hope they fix it so it works similar to parry on other classes.

I got used to holding the parry button in the first place so I struggled playing Bulwark at first. Learned to just tap the button really fast, though some people say that double tapping ensures the parry since you naturally try to tap as fast as possible when you want to double tap a button.

The only time where the block defense is actually doable on a melee weapon is the Mastercrafted power sword. It just blows the other 2 in its tier out the water with speed and damage. It’s even better than the Artificer options in my opinion. Now, when you get to Relic, it’s a no-brainer on the fencing version. Just putting that out there for my block and dodge Bladeguards out there. I main’d that play style for majority of my Bulwark time until I finally maxed out the sword (I’m a purist so I refused to use the Chainsword or Power Fist as a Bladeguard)

at the point you're fighting with the warrior in trials to show parry and perfect parry, every time the warrior swings with his right hand and it doesn't knock him back doesn't mean you didn't do a perfect parry. He's doing a 2 hit combo which means you'll have to parry both hits before the stagger and gunstrike. They're not the only enemies that do this. Another example would be when the ravener does it's quick right and left swipe on you. You'll notice you'll never stagger it with its first swing. Try doing this with a Vanguard and the 50% more parry window perk. You'll never stagger that first strike ever.

If your playing assault they get a much larger window to perfect dodge and you get your gun strikes that way, might be worth trying a more powerful block or balanced weapon with them

I played bulwark on pc without playing campaign and the block being same as parry was hard to get used to. I did the trails and just left 1 warrior left and practiced the timing. As he said it has a wind up. When you see it and get it you’re good. But I still do not know how to change stance mid combat haha

If the shield marine got any passives that gave bonuses for blocking melee hits, it would make using block weapons more viable. As it stands, the only passive we get for blocking hits is blocking ranged attacks dealing small damage in a 10m area around us. Good for letting the enemy kill their own, but shield blocking won't protect against blue or orange strikes.
@artifixer
@artifixer 3 ай бұрын
Yep, fencing weapons are perfect to get a general feel how to parry and how strong it can be. You can then go back to balanced and tune the timing a bit if you want. But among relic weaponry, for most weapon types fencing models are the best.

While I do think that there's a lot of classes that actively spec into parries and benefit from gun strikes, I do think block weapons are underrated. Certain classes, like bulwark and assault, can actively benefit from an entirely dodge-based playstyle, and dodge is also more reactive compared to parrying, which I'd describe the same as the slightly-delayed Lies of P type parry. You can still gun-strike by dodging as well, and block weapons tend to have better stats overall, making the build more melee focused, but also easier to pull off heavy attacks more often to break through defenses. Block variants tend to have some pretty awesome stats, like chainsword and thunder hammer - definitely wouldn't write it off entirely.
