If you plan on doing any PVP battles, learn these moves. Parrying and riposting can be extremely difficult, but is sometimes the only path to victory. Like a backstab, a successful riposte will trigger a special animation and result in high damage and a knockdown. Pressing RB immediately after a parry usually results in a riposte. Not all shields and weapons parry (for instance, greatshields do not), and not all enemy moves can be parried. If you parry just before the enemy makes contact with you, the blow will be deflected The exact animation and timing varies wildly depending on whatвЂ™s equipped, so make sure to practice every time thereвЂ™s an equipment change. Parry and Ripostes: Pressing LT with most shields or weapons equipped in your left hand will cause your character to perform a parry move. In most cases, only humanoid enemies can be backstabbed (for instance, you cannot backstab a rat or a dragon).Д¬ircling around an opponentвЂ™s left side and backstabbing them should be your primary means of engaging enemies that seem too powerful to attack head on. This triggers a special animation and always results in a knockdown. Visit a blacksmith to repair broken weapons.Д«ackstabs: Backstabs are high-damage attacks that are accomplished by pressing RB when you are close to and directly behind an enemy. These moves can be very useful, but they almost always severely degrade the integrity of the item. For example, if you hold the Drake Sword in both hands and press RT, youвЂ™ll send forth a vertical shockwave. Also make sure to try attacking with both buttons after a roll or after sprinting.ДЇor certain special weapons and shields, pressing RT or LT unleashes a special attack as opposed to a standard heavy swing. The exact moves can vary wildly depending on which weapon youвЂ™re holding, and further still if you press Y to hold the weapon with both hands. RB is the standard attack, RT is the strong attack, and repeatedly pressing either will usually result in a combo.

There is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support nor have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may cause your IP to be blocked indefinitely.

Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.

Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests.
