dauntless shield had the most satisfying parry sound effect. Especially when its a perfect parry (It glows red when doing a perfect parry and glows yellow if normal parry)
@@ArmoredGdauntless shield is the best one to use as it compliments an offensive playstyle which is the most fun ofc. rn im playing on ng+ and fighting the berserkers is really aided by the parry on the dauntless shield cause after parrying once you can straight up attack back without slowing down an inch.
I've beaten this game and still to this day I can't get the timing on parries for the big brute einherjar. Everything else I can do. Berserkers dragon grabs,. Grim spin jump attacks, Bjorn multiple slashes. Anything. Except those fuckers for some reason.
If you're trying to get used to the timing, try using the Rond of Deflection for a larger party window. It makes a good difference if you're still getting used to parrying.
@@dantesparda5103oh really?! In the game?! You mean you’re NOT King Candy/Turbo, jumping from game to game, grabbing what you want from it to use in your own?!
How am I just finding your channel! Like this is really great. The explanation about the “flourish Bullshit” 😂😂 was super key. And to keep your eye on the weapon. Dam, man. This is my new game tips place! Also the editing , magic! And to teach and show and be entertaining without over explaining is a talent in itself. I’m thankful and throughly impressed with the whole presentation! ❤
nice tip on focusing on the weapon! yeah my rhythm game brain keeps thinking the indicator is a timing mechanic. thing i noticed is that you only have a buffer before the attack hits, and not after (unlike GoT and rhythm games)
@@RazorIancein rhythm games you can press the button after you're supposed to by some amount and it was still count (in the same way that you can press jump after your character has stepped off a cliff and in most platformers will still count.
This video focuses on how and when to parry, but just a reminder here are the types of attacks, and which can be parried: No Rings : Can be parried, dodged and blocked. Yellow Ring : Can be parried, dodged but blocking will break your guard and stun you. Red Ring : Can only be dodged. Blue Rings : You must interrupt it in order to avoid damage (shield strike with double tap L1). So you can parry pretty much anything that has No Rings or Yellow Rings, including projectiles and melee attacks. Even huge bosses and crazy attacks can be parried! You can parry with any shield, but some have different ways in which they will counterattack.
..problem is not the timing but that parrying often does not flinch or stop your enemies from completing their combo. Parrying + counter a melee attack often is dangerous. The only time you can safely counter attack is if the attack being parried is the last of a combo or if it's a single attack move only. Projectiles can always be parried/countered safely.
during the fight with the berserker in the video, I noticied you parried like three time in a row. I didn't get this yet. did you just hold L1 all the time or hit L1 3 times perfectly? I'm guessing the latter because I try to hold L1, it blocked the first attack then they hit me up pretty good
How about getting the shield to WORK in the first place? I'm sick and tired of mashing L1 knowing an attack is coming, only to get NOTHING. The shield doesn't come up until AFTER Kratos gets hit, which is HORSE SHIT. I'm also sick and tired of mashing "∆" to get the axe back after throwing it but NOT getting the axe back. This game's control mechanics are TERRIBLE. I've defeated Ghost of Tsushima on lethal setting and Horizon Forbidden West on the hardest with no problems, but GOW Ragnarok is easily the worst game I've played when it comes to the controls simply not functioning properly.
Iav got the the point now it’s not enjoyable to play because one’s they get a hit in that’s it I know am dead. I’ll try and hit or shield and absolutely nothing works! What also annoys me is the camera lock I’ll see energy within sight but I cannot for the love of money get him to turn so I can stamp on it! 😡😩
How the hell do I stop slow motion when I am getting hit by an enemy with the yellow circle? Cause every single time I pull up my shield and get hit Kratos throws his left arm like a mile back and leaves his front completely open to all attacks.
Bro this helped me so much as first I couldn’t parry as good and my timing was off but the way u broke it down and explained when to shield strike and showed us how that helped me so much also they way u said the how bosses do extra move to scare me into parrying to early was so true now I’m reading and anticipating their attacks before it hit me thank u so much man this vid deserves so much more love
How do I do this because I do it a bit before then it just blocks but if I do it right on time he takes too long to take out his shield? And I only have like half a second to react so I can't get an in between
woah! 2.6 thousand subscribers already! i feel like it was a week ago when it was at 1 thousand, also thanks for the tip i was having so much trouble with this!
From projectiles? What happens differs from shield to shield, you can try out and see which you like. Some send it back, some do it faster, slower etc.
Just to clarify, are the parry timings in Ragnarok are still the same with the last god of war? Because I have played the last god of war and the dark souls games so I'm quite used to parrying. Just wondering if the timings in ragnarok have changed.
The sound of the shield when blocking is definitely a great innovation in the game. One of my favorite sound effects.
Naw. The sound of your moms but cheeks clapping is waaaay better. Trust me. It’s one of MY favorite sound effects
dauntless shield had the most satisfying parry sound effect. Especially when its a perfect parry (It glows red when doing a perfect parry and glows yellow if normal parry)
I wish I could get that sound as a text alert on my phone.

Is it double tap L1 or or only 1 tap I need a answer
One tap is enough to parry, double tap is using shield ability and also you can interupt blue ring attacks or push enemy.
Watching this to try to beat Valhalla, Tyr is beating my ass 😭
If you're trying to get used to the timing, try using the Rond of Deflection for a larger party window. It makes a good difference if you're still getting used to parrying.
Where do you get it?
@@hende37 in the game, just you tube where to find it
@@dantesparda5103oh really?! In the game?! You mean you’re NOT King Candy/Turbo, jumping from game to game, grabbing what you want from it to use in your own?!
I know that would help a lot but my pride refuses to use this 'noob' gear 😂
I understood the instruction but I always seem to end up parrying with my face
1:30 😂😂😂 “Twirly bullshit….& now” 😂😂😂👍🏾
I got it
Realest shit I ever heard 🫱🏾🫲🏽
I feel like if you don’t know how to parry, you’re never gonna beat some of these bosses even on story mode some of them are hard lol
I beat them all without parrying(i didn't know hoe at that time so😅) but i think it will be easier now if i practise it
Focusing on predicting the point of impact and enemy movements actually helps a lot for many delayed yellow ring attacks
Finally - a guide that’s Actually useful!
Thanks for the tips. The circular rings cause me to mess up a lot.
I honestly think parrying in Dark Souls/Elden Ring/even Sekiro is easier than this game. I'm on the damn struggle bus.

Parrying is a really annoying mechanic, not only in this game but in any modern combat game. I wish they got rid of it
They make it much harder to do parries in Gow Ragnarök
This is excellent video. Much appreciated. *Scurries off to practice parries*
I just got through that first encounter with the raiders and your video definitely helped, thanks for the tips! ✌️
this is too hard. only works out of luck. this is why gow ragnarok is so frustrating.
i dont know why but i used to be a parry pro in the old god of war (2018) but now in ragnarok its hard
Thank you I could NOT figure this out against Hardfell the callous which is all parrying!

The only time you can safely counter attack is if the attack being parried is the last of a combo or if it's a single attack move only. Projectiles can always be parried/countered safely.
Another tip to get good at parrying in this game is if you complete sekiro, I think that's a much easier method
Thank you for actually explaining the green means nothing. 😊

you to hit it 3 times perfectly
i fought gna for 8hours and i still cant beat it
I usually only comment when I have some snarky, smart ass shit to say, but this video was very well done and useful in a practical way.
Well I got two words for you as well.
*S t o n e w a l l s h I e l d*
I couldn't get the timing right at all lol stonewall shield saved me
THANKS MAN! I keep following the yellow ring but they still hit me :(
Thank you, I'm playing on second hardest difficulty
This will be me
Thanks
Wait... I always watch my videos on 360. But the frame rate is insanely high on this video. LoL
THANK YOU!! This is perfect. GGRecon was 0 fucking help
That was a nice flourish at the end there; nothing like approval from the OG
That smirk at the end 😉
Parrying in. This game doesn’t do shit. It just gives them a wider window to attack.
Me: “I just know.”
Edit: also, love the guardian shield
How about getting the shield to WORK in the first place? I'm sick and tired of mashing L1 knowing an attack is coming, only to get NOTHING. The shield doesn't come up until AFTER Kratos gets hit, which is HORSE SHIT. I'm also sick and tired of mashing "∆" to get the axe back after throwing it but NOT getting the axe back.

Your guard broke instead of parrying so that's the punishment
In other words “practice makes perfect” 😂
“Twirly bullshit, and now” 😂😂😂

Twirly bullish haha
Twirly bullshit and now! 🤣🤣🤣
Ngl I forgot how to when I came back to the game
How do you counter attack?
How do you return the energy and punch them back with the energy in your shield?
Each shield has unique effects like that, so just depends on which shield you use
Souls fans where are y'all?
How do I do this because I do it a bit before then it just blocks but if I do it right on time he takes too long to take out his shield? And I only have like half a second to react so I can't get an in between
Awwww twirly bullshit… now lol
"0.5 before claws" is there a time less than 1 second like 0.1 seconds or is it just one time for a perfect parry?
This is my Guy people! He has created Fire ... Now witness...!
Yout he man bro........... Now it all make sense. SMACKDOWN.
Bro the twurly bullsh*t had me on the fukkin floor😂 1:31
im so bad at this game
The is the best example !!!!
Thank you!

Thank you
funny i keep doing this by accident but dont know how to do it on command…i go practice this
Can you make a video on how to breathe please, it's too hard i could use some help
That shit is hard,

Looking for shatterstar shield strike parry timing
Just tap? Don't hold it down?
Either way is fine, how long you hold it doesn't matter. What's important is when you start
Sometimes when you parry successfully there will be a second blow while your shield is down, how to I deal with that?
Side stepping
How do you throw back the projectile?
The parrysystem is absolut BS
Twirly bullshit and now!🤣
Can you do a vid overviewing the differences between the different shields ?
You have a great voice. Im jealous as I would love to make youtbe vids but have a horrible accent
If you want to, you should go for it. No one likes hearing their own voice, 😄 don't let that stop you
Thanks
This is amazing! Thank you!
Thanks this helped alot
Thank you, specific and helpful.
Thanks man nice and quick video
Good tip ty
the most helpfull guide out here. thanks dude
Perfect
Broo, thx!
Best video I've seen yet this helped me thank you!
Very helpful. +1
How do you launch an attack after a successful parry
Just press R1 kid
Can you parry with other shields in the game
Yep, you can parry with any.
How do you send back attacks?after a parry
From projectiles? What happens differs from shield to shield, you can try out and see which you like. Some send it back, some do it faster, slower etc.
Is the special amulet (that extends the parry window) still in the game x)?
There's "Rond of Deflection" you can find for the shield that increases the window
YES right, and it's paired most well with the "Emblem of Elusion" (also from 2018) what gives you more evavion distance/speed
What a great video. Thanks
Very well done video
Do u just hit l1 or hold it
You can do either, but if you're really parrying at the last (and right) moment, a quick hit of L1 is all there is time for anyways. Best of luck!

Good question! I haven't done any analysis of parrying in the 2018 God of War so can't offer a definitive answer there.
