*Enhanced sekiro deflect* this apply to all shields, also only greatshields should have the possibility of hiding behind it for any given period of time. Irl if you tried staticly blocking with a medium shield: everyone would just aim for everything you're not covering. So this is how I see it: (Blocking input while 2handing a weapon, or 1handing a weapon with something in the left hand that's not a shield or spell item): - Sekiro parry with chip damage taken (Blocking input with a small/medium shield): -Has to be timed -Still recieve chip damage on sloppy timing -On perfect timing you revieve no chip damage and parry into a reposte. -Small shields have more forgiving parry frames, but you recieve more chip damage. -Medium shields would be the opposite: less parry frames, but more forgiving chip damage. (Blocking input for a greatshield 1handed and 2 handed): -Can hold the block button for a constant guard. -all of these shields block 100% physical -1handing is like normal in Elden Ring -2handing greatly reduces stamina damage taken -Attacks while 2 handing with greatshields heavily stun, but you deal very little damage unless you're using the cannon and flame thrower shield ashes. Everything with to do with blocking and stamina is taken away exept with shields. Every other way of blocking relies on "posture mechanics". Also status effects still work the same as in game: if you parry you're not taking any damage or meter build up. Ps: As a bonus I think it would be cool if you did increased posture damage while poise attacking/using poise to trade into an enemy attack.

i really like the idea of sword parries being a way to make them viable for blocking. instead of leaving the enemy vulnerable it just prevents you from taking damage and, in the case of the attack you parry not being a particularly hefty one, allows you a faster response time than a roll would. functioning similarly to the sekiro parry, but still having enough drawbacks to prevent it from being abused in pvp or become the overwhelming meta.

Found the mod used: it's called swordsmanship. It does everything seen here from new animations/combos to deflects to dodges. It plays very well so far. The deflects are a bit funky (mostly bc you can't spam it like in sekiro, so you need decent timing which can be tricky on delayed attacks) and aren't always useful; however, it is pretty good to parry then guard counter right after. The step dodge takes a bit of getting used to but also feels really good.

Yup. With how fast this enemies are, this is a good system. The parrying tho, doesn't fit in my opinion, but the dodging does. If only fromsoft will make the dodge snappier, because it really feels slow af. Example is of when you try to dodge that attack of Godfrey, where he place his axe back then suddenly does a overhead swing in lightspeed, your instinct is to dodge at the last moment but because of the slow input of the dodge, you will get hit when you feel like you weren't supposed to.

@@ncrranger6327 You still have posture in ER, they easily could just tweak the damage numbers so that not parrying or dodging was devastating and an imperfect parry while low on posture results in a break, plus imperfect parries would still incur damage. I played Sekiro with the bell demon on from the moment I heard it existed, you genuinely had to learn your opponents. Elden ring kinda just follow a "He's swinging so it's time to dodge spam" mentality. Or worse, you hold block. It's not like the system would be hard to implement, they've already done it in other games. fights in elden ring are generally trivial though, I don't really understand your statement that THIS would trivialize them. Like you die alot in ER sure but they're rarely actually a case of you not being able to keep up. many of the primary methods of fighting involve either just face tanking with 100% damage negation or staying the fuck away from the enemy until they do one attack and then jumping them. Mages quite literally JUST stay the fuck away most of the time unless they're running some carian shit to feel spicy and then they're just playing sword builds with resources and magic damage. In many cases just spamming an Ash is your whole playstyle. These ARE trivialised fights. There's nothing really to them. Most of the difficult fights aren't hard because they take skill they're hard because the enemy either blasts big health chunks, has a huge AOE or just spams attacks. Or there's two of them....And they do all of these things simultaneously but out of sync And your main defense is basically to find your own form of cheese that you can spam. And even then, many bosses that are tough, stop being so if you just dump points into vigour because raw damage output is often a bosses main reason for being hard to beat. When your health bar is half the length of your screen many of them stop being so punishing and you can do that practically before you even finish two areas. I was starting to lose interest specifically because every weapon and style I picked up just had a gimmick to it that you spammed. Dual curved, just jump attack with some kinda debuff and you applied it instantly. Cool? Now what? Oh do it again? Okay I guess? Big swords? Jump attack big dudes for big damage, permanently stagger smaller dudes with every swing. Nice. Katana you just spam till their health bar explodes, knives you spam faster, etc And you're kinda punished by trying shit out because some of it sucked straight out and some of it was TOO good but was a pain to get off and the stuff that DID work and wasn't boring, became boring. Because you spammed it. I stopped playing at the gargoyles just because I was like "Yeah, I can and have beaten both of these enemy types separately even while underleveled, but there's two of them so now it's literally just their movesets getting spammed out of sync." I could jump ones sweep, land and block the follow up and dodge through the next attack then come up, block and power counter, in my sleep. I haven't played in like 2 or 3 months and I can practically still SEE that fucking gargoyles combo. But add in another gargolye and suddenly I'm getting smashed over the head after jumping the first one because their move set requires contradicting actions. That's literally just artificial difficulty. They're both easily beaten on their own I couldn't and still can't fathom why they didn't use sekiros combat as a template. Like you could do so damn much with that games attacks, chaining five or six different methods of attack back to back in a high speed combo, Running attack in, parry, counter attack, dodge backwards, jump to avoid a following sweep, land and throw a star that you could then chasing slice through, jump attack, back step, jump forward, kick off them and land to release an art that you could chain into another prosthetic and that whole thread is realistically about 5 seconds of combat. And elden ring basically has all the same shit sekiro had, they've just decided to remove how fluidly it all went together which is baffling because they COULD have made unique combinations out of all the variety in the game between your weapons, throwables, ashes and the enemy types, where every fight flowed as brilliantly as Sekiros boss fights did with a fuck tonne of combat customization to be done by you in the moment But instead, you just pick what aesthetic flavour of whacking stick you want, and you whack people with the same 2 moves over and over again. Parry and step dodging atleast would reintroduce the need to learn an attack pattern because really in ER if you didn't know the pattern you would probably survive just spamming roll anyway. Tweaking this mod to be like bell demon Sekiro would just make the combat better in general. Punishing but fair, learn the moves and you'll survive

I think that has less to do with the dodge animation and more to do with the fact that "dodge" and "sprint" are both assigned to that button, and are prioritized in such a way that dodging happens when the button is released instead of when it's pressed. If they simply made it so that a dodge is performed when the button is pressed, and then holding will let the player transition into sprinting, it'd feel a lot more responsive. Though I still think the quick step animation would be a much better animation for that transition.

@nigrum_angelum66552 жыл бұрын
@@cold1895 I'll always imagine the "perfect blocking" to be more proper deflections; attacker's stance wouldn't immediately break, but they would lose a whole lot more stamina when their attacks are deflected, thus multiple deflected attacks could finally break their stance and open them up for a riposte. In fact, they already sort of implemented this; parry-able bosses requires multiple parries before they could be riposte'd. And in contrast, the defender who actively perfect block would lose much less stamina. Regular blocking already makes you lose varying stamina based on the weapons attacking you, and afaik it also applies to attackers based on the weapons they're wielding and what kind of shields they're attacking. Perfect blocking would then modify these stamina consumptions, increasing combat's dynamic. It would've been a safer, more long-term alternative to parries, more of an instant result with higher risk of receiving HP damage when you could have not. They could've even integrate it with guard counter, and poise as well.

Definitely love and miss the quickstep! It should've been in the game. However, there would need to be major balancing done in order to implement the parry mechanic properly, so it wouldn't be the best option as it seems pretty Op in this demonstration. Sekiro was designed around this parry mechanic. ER is not designed around this mechanic. I love duel welding katanas like my favorite turtle Leonardo! How would we make it possible for duel wielders like myself to parry, or str builds that wield hulking swords? I imagine it would look pretty silly if someone who takes 5 seconds to swing a massive sword would be able to parry. Would it only be possible with certain weapons/builds? Could it be an ash of war? Maybe a finite number of parrys, as in it consumes your FP meter. If you expended all your FP meter you'd still be able to parry, but you would take a certain amount of damage; thus pushing you to start evading or be more aggressive. I have many other ideas in how it might be implemented properly. I love the idea and it looks absolutely epic! So much potential here to add a whole new playstyle. Imagine the big boy bosses that would slide you back a good distance when parrying them. I loved the super aggressive gameplay of Bloodborne(my favorite Soulsborne game) and miss the rally system. Sorry, I could go on forever. I'm going into game design this fall so thinking about these things really interest and inspire me!

Elden ring feels too much like the other souls games without taking much of any pointers from sekiro or bloodborne. I feel like if the ash of war system had more of a back seat presence and they focused more on the universal combat, like in the video having a reason to two hand a weapon and block with it or maybe have more variety in the movesets between weapons. In darksouls 2 especially in the dlc the weapons varied and i feel like each weapon had its own personality; like they were wacky and cool and whenever you get a unique weapon that had a L2 you got excited! Hell even darksouls 2 had parrys on a lot of the heavy weapons. Parry should be a universal skill for every weapon, and there should be perfect guards and with the very limited selection of paired weapons either remove the block and make it a stance/ give it a unique move or make it actually look cool like you are blocking with two giant swords and not just holding out your hand.

It felt fun exploring the world but I never grew to like the dark souls roll combat and bosses. Like bloodbornes quickstep and sekiros deflect much more. Idk but with elden ring I don't have the urge to replay it any time soon, since I don't really feel like there a lot of reasons to come back other than the open world, much of which I already experienced.

Biggest problem with ER combat is that the enemies don't play by the same rules as the player. - Enemy to player damage ratio aside, a lot of enemies have a combo of poise/HA while being incredibly mobile - so it does not play by Dark Souls rules of "If it's fast, it's squishy but hard to hit. If it's slow, it's easy to hit but is tanky as hell". - Enemy has infinite stamina while player is stuck with arguably very slow stamina regen and high stamina costs across the board - so it ain't playing like bloodborne either. - Finally, using anything other than greatshields is a suicide agains a lot of bosses, but rolling is at the same time unreliable at best with a plethora of multi-hit combos timed so rolling on 1st will get you hit on 2nd and stunlocked into the 3rd, rolling on 2nd will get you hit by 3rd and 4th etc... with no defensive mechanic like deflection, so it does not play like Sekiro either. Bosses behave like a hybrid of BB/Sekiro enemies while putting the player in DS1 concrete-filled pants, it's just a giant mismatch of who is affected by which ruleset

As with most games, a lot of content was cut or rushed in order for the game to be profitable. Another one is that it's an open world, and this changes development a bit.

EDIT: thanks for the comments! Some are saying that it doesn't throw balance out of the window and works with most weapons. I should try this more than maybe 5 minutes, lol. HOWEVER, one point should stand: this mode needs to be as powerful and effective as in Sekiro, instead of just doing what a shield+counter already does in the game, otherwise just feels the same. Fromsoft maybe could add an deflect ash of war with cost, commitment and great effectiveness.

As much as I love this idea, a lot of things would become even more unbalanced then before! Which weapons would be able to deflect? It would be ridiculous for a colossal weapon to do that, so they wouldn't be able to, but then we'd have to balance that out somehow by giving them something else. Not every weapon has to be viable, but every weapon should be usable. then quickstepping would also be incredibly powerful and it would definitely be tied with equip load, so nobody would use heavy weapons because that would require more endurance to be able to quickstep. Every weapon should have it's own little niche that it succeeds in, and as it is already, ER fails in a lot of this, so a system like deflecting and strafing would disincentivize a lot of people from using heavier weapons. Cool showcase though.

@nathanbrown81962 жыл бұрын
It's not so far fetched as it seems. There is two very simple things would make this viable. Firstly, deflect would need to function like "guard stability" for weapons and scale with endurance. Second, make armor viable. Let me explain. First bit, guard stability for weapons would mean having deflect pull from stamina. Heavier weapons would have higher stability meaning two-handed weapons become viable for defense. It's likely that greatswords, polearms and spears become the meta for this mechanic. UGS and super heavy weapons would be great for deflection but slow on recovery. Shields would obviously work best at deflection becoming more relevant in skill based play and getting beginners familiar with the mechanic. Secondly armor and "defense". Armor is largely ornamental in current iterations of FromSoftware's game design. However, in ds1 and ds2, armor was a viable means of defending from hyper specialized players and enemies. Essentially if you couldn't block or dodge, you could count on your armor to shunt part of the damage based on the current level of resistances granted. The problem was there were "go to" armors in the game and everyone abused them. I would suggest, give all armor sets a relevant defense value (physical OR magical, but not both), and have armor grant guard stability. Include a scaling endurance or intelligence/faith buff so armor stays relevant as you progress. This keeps hyper specialized meta from overwhelming the player base but still rewards creative play and probing for weaknesses in armor. Dual wielding will need a few tweaks, and damage scaling (desperately) needs a rebalance. All in all however, it would be fairly easy to implement without breaking the game... But that's just my opinion.

I was so disappointed when the trailers came out showing they were basically just gonna copy and paste dark souls combat, this was supposed to be the culmination of everything From had learned over the years but they decided to take a step back from both BB and Sekiro, which had the best melee combat of any game period. I really would have liked to see a system that incorporated both quick stepping and dodge rolling (hit the button once for quickstep, double tap for roll) while also incorporating deflection but still allowing shields to parry. If they were worried about deflect spam I really think there’s a very simple solution which would just be to make deflection have like a half second cooldown if you miss, that way you have to more deliberately time your deflects, but you could still spam it for flurry attacks as long as you are properly deflecting each hit. I will admit I think Sekiro was a little too forgiving in this aspect, missing a deflect didn’t really matter, I think this system would punish panic deflect spam better which would in turn allow deflection to be in a pvp setting without devolving it into two dickheads spamming deflect at each other accomplishing nothing

Elden ring is really boring when u realize torrent is useless for every boss and that barely any bosses have jumpable attacks.
@mutilator972 жыл бұрын
I use torrent in literally every dragon and night cavalry fight. And why do you want jumpable attacks? That just makes the boss using it look stupid for even trying that shit.

Torrent is insanely good for most of the open world bosses, what are you talking about? The only boss that Torrent sucks against is the Wormface boss at Altus Plateau.

@@utisti4976 and the fire giant. You don’t have I frames dodging with torrent and he’s only really good In fights for chasing down bosses that run away. You do way less damage on him and the only time I really use him is to take advantage of his I frames while mounting. Grounded combat is way more optimal for damage

you are all right i guess im just angry that i can't use torrent on the cooler bosses like godfrey or godrick or elden beast. Another issue is that u can fight all these bosses without torrent and your fine sometimes its more preferable so that you can actually roll attacks.

This should be the default combat style for Elden Ring! This is perfect. Sekiro style deflections are so satisfying.
