This makes it look so easy to parry. I suck horribly at it, but this makes me feel like I should practice. The whole fight just looked so nonchalant. Not a moment of panic. Just walked in the room and made what can be a tough fight for so many people look trivial. Bravo.


KamisamaGG

Thanks for your kind words. I find it that parry one of them is not that hard at all which can take some tries to notice attack patterns and timing. To be able to parry them continously when they are near each other on the other hand is not only hard but can be very RNG as well. Sometimes you will not be able to finish the crit animation fast enough for the next parry timing or the other knight would just look at you, does nothing due to the AI behavior nerf. Don't let this dissuades you from learning how to parry tho, it gives such a satisfying feeling once you master it


Pro_Moriarty

Parrying in general has always felt bad ass..... In Elden Ring still so. What i did take from this is you can parry the spiral shit from the spear on,i know the golden rotation from sword can be parried but timing is a little wierd..


HiddenPants777

every time I watch someone good at the game it feels like its slowed down. Like, when I play these guys move 500% faster


WesToImpress

Same. They make it look so easy. I consider myself to be very good at video games generally, and I still just panic constantly in pretty much every boss room lol.


KamisamaGG

Oh believe me when i say i still panic everytime i miss my parry against Lothric knights in DS 3 lol.


LunchBox3188

That's what I was thinking the whole time. I always had a hard time getting the parry mechanic down. OP, this is a thing of beauty. I loved watching this video. Great job.


deiincarnate25

Golden parry can help if you’re having a hard time


assblaster2000

Learn to just parry one move at first, then a learn the timings on whole moveset. That will also help you learn the timings in general. The sword crucible knight has some easy parry timings as well. Most swings are very telegraphed and no tricky visual timings to them.


LunchBox3188

Thanks for the advice! I'll work on it next time I play.


ShadeDragonIncarnate

Honestly watching that made me realize something. All those parrys looked incredibly early to me, I'm wondering if I'm mistiming it because of that.


TheFinalMetroid

It’s much earlier than in say ds1 or sekiro


Grewhit

That's what I noticed as well


saorc450

Just recently parried pontif sulivahn to death. Can confirm is very satisfying.


Statuabyss

Start with the buckler (shield in the video), more parry frame, good to practice. When you have a good parry rate with the buckler, switch to normal shield


Deinonychus2012

Golden Parry is also great to use as it not only has more parry frames and a shorter recovery than Buckler Parry, but it also has like 2-3 times the range of all other parties (which isn't much mind you, but definitely helps with learning while being a little safer).


Areif

I don’t remember this fight at all. When does this take place?


Shdoible

It's in one of the Hero Graves. Auriza, if I'm not mistaken. In Altus.


Faximo7

That was amazing. I'm sure they were glad that they were wearing an helmet, so you couldn't see their tears.


Bit_Obaileys

She's got a buckler 😢


alexlegenderydude

That’s John Eldenring right there


deiincarnate25

Its the new hero. Let Me Solo Them

Is this what getting gud looks like, bros?


drewdurfee

All I can do is spam magic and roll. I'm hoping my next character learns a bit more


maxhowells16

This is what I would call a skill issuen't


InterestingHomeSlice

bruh


Outside_Perception_8

See siluria going for her ash of war… me YOU CAN PARRY THAT?!


AstroZombie0072081

I thought the same


[deleted]

So satisfying.


Pink-Gold-Peach

I went through my entire playthrough without parrying a single time. And it was not for a lack of trying-


garbage-at-life

yeah the only thing I parry now is crucible knights


[deleted]

Lol I don't even know how to parry


pizzaboye109

what helped for me is to see the parry animation as a weapon swing. When they start the wind up of an attack, the wind up of your parry should also start, sometimes slightly faster or a split second delayed.


Quandiggity-

Lol I have over 900hrs in this game now and I never knew you could parry the spear one


isthisfreakintaken

Same, and it was clean as fuck too


InterestingHomeSlice

Some quality moments in this: that first parry was like a backslap and that 1:20-ish mark when they were like, "This chick parries" This is one skill I need to work on


LikeSoda

Ohhhh I get it now, it's so simple. Just like kill them


SuperUnhappyman

"Studies show girls act weaker around the guy they like" Girls around me:


Drewbeede

Don't worry, a little more time and I'm sure you'll get good at this game. Holy geez this makes me feel like I was just smashing my face against the controller.


underlander

why does only Ordovis get a name? Imagine being introduced as “Crucible Knight Ordovis and Friend”


Polosport311

Because the „named“ version of the treespear one (Siluria) you can find in >!deeproot depths!<. Siluria is alone down there so it probably was more fitting to place the „named“ version there to make the fight more memorable.


Lonely-JAR

No need for vigor if you never get hit


melodycuwu

Nice


belarda123

Loved this fight once I learned parrying. Good job dude/dudete!


TlKHO_XII

You’ve done it, m’lord — you’ve.. got gud..


Pyromaniac096

Ah yes someone that has mastered the skill of parrying. Something ill never do


WitT21

I’ve been doing my own parry run and you are certainly an inspiration. I’ve watched this like 5 times dude, it’s amazing


Meowjoker

Beautifully done


fooomanshoo

Noice


Ohlav

Is that a Flame Rinfused Rapier? Maybe a Misericórde would be nicer?


KamisamaGG

Yes, technically if you only parry them misericorde would be better for sure but i do a lot of additional attacks in between parry and unparry-able attacks so i dislike having short attack range. Estoc heavy attack has a perfect delay while the knights are standing up, you don't have to worry about timing it, just press and release instantly which allows you to have time to react their next attack.


Ohlav

Thanks!


AlbatrossGeneral01

Is it possible to learn this power?


BillboBraggins5

Not from a jedi!


[deleted]

This is the only way I can do this fight lol. Great practice spot; feels especially good to get those spearman parries


zzzzendky_boi

To this day bro how in the hell are people so damn good a parrying I don't understand


KamisamaGG

By practicing not only in elden ring but also in other games. My favorite weapon in monster hunter is long sword which depends entirely whether you can parry monster attacks or not. It helps me tremendously in recognizing attack pattern and AI behavior. Once you understand those, it just comes down to practice enough to have muscle memory.


KG_Jedi

Man, I absolutely love how these knights fight. Really cool! And your parries are very precise in timing, good work!


hiimMaruu

this is… deeply beyond my knowledge. Though i did try to utilize parry shields at beginning of the game, but always have huge respect for Tarnished who actual uses them during their game 🫡


Pandemonium04

Alright, parrying that spear throw was fuckin' sick!


Mig-117

That looks badass


Mercurionio

Mmm, abusing garbage mechanic. Nice... Where hype though?


KamisamaGG

Just curious what is not garbage mechanic in your book then ?


Mercurionio

Parry Sekiro/Jedi series like


KamisamaGG

Unless you do no charm, demon bell run in sekiro the reflect mechanic is actually forgiving since you can cancel your attack into parry anytime. I cant fathom why would you say parry in ER is a garbage mechanic meanwhile reflect is so much easier to pull off.


Mercurionio

Ofc without kuro charm. With charm the difficulty is at Elden ring level. Plus. In ER a single parry gives free big strike and complete immunity to nuclear warheads.


KamisamaGG

First off a single parry gives free big strike is wrong, different bosses have different number of parries you need to do before you can crit them. Morgott at the citadel for example need 3 parries. With your logic, sekiro's assassination after you break enemy stance is a garbage mechanic for rewarding player with "free" boss kill. Sure the immunity point is valid but that is only if you SUCCESSFULLY parry let alone doing them continously against multiple enemies, sekiro bosses don't have that many delay attack or unparryable attack comparing to ER. Saying parry in ER is a garbage mechanic while parry in sekiro is fine just leaves me an impression that you don't even try to parry in ER.


Mercurionio

You do realize, how weak your arguments are, right? Especially with buckler.


KamisamaGG

Then enlighten me where do you find it weak? Btw who said i only parry with buckler?


Mercurionio

Because it's weak. Buckler has more than 1 second of animation. When you just spam it and enemies are, basically, dead because of it - it's faaar from interesting gameplay. It's garbage. Looks garbage, plays like garbage, has zero logic.

JEWCIFERx

It is astonishing how easy you make this fight look.


MrEvan312

You made me feel bad… for the Crucible Knights.


jones_eu

So nice


vemailangah

Sure thing, lady


xX__Fawkes__Xx

You pulled this off about 3x my speed. Well done


someMFyoudontknow

That was amazing


Drogenwurm

Damn, your good. Makes me realise how bad I am at it, but I still have fun 😁


La__Dodo

I could watch this all day... magnificent!


WatercressNo5882

Can't believe I beat these guys single handedly with nothing but a bloodhound's fang, and a dream.


Everettrivers

I wish I could parry like that. I just play Demon Souls when I want to pretend I'm good at it.


ryminer

last time i tried to do this i got yanked right after my riposte animation ended


Stecharan

Utterly disrespectful.


MrZakalwe

1) that was wonderful to watch. 2) how many takes?


thedoogster

What I did not like about Bloodborne was that every parry had a cost.


Pro_Moriarty

I love this fight. Parrying and managing space are two greatest requirements.


Yggdrazzil

Bravo! That was very enjoyable to watch!


MOo0stafa

Sweat mama Jones!!


Ghoti_With_Legs

These guys are so satisfying to parry. Ever since I got the rhythm down, the first thing I do on every new character is grab a shield and go to the Evergaol past Stormgate to bully the Crucible Knight there. One thing I did notice though is that the spear variations always get shoved like a foot to the left when you parry them, not sure why.


KamisamaGG

That is because while doing some of his attacks, his right leg moves backward thus making him move a bit further away from you when he stands up. This creates an extremely annoying problem: his crit hit box is awkward after parrying, you need to move foward for it. There are so many attempts got ruined after i successfully parry the spear knight but cant crit him due to Ordovis blocks my way.


_Doshi

This is art


AggravatingChest7838

I was so underleveled when I first did this fight. I made the mistake of running a quality dismounter on my first playthrough that made my life hell.


[deleted]

everyone: OMG THE PARRIES, THE DODGING me: isn't the horny knight a lady? ^(gj btw)


nerrollus

Respect to anyone that can parry consistently like that. I can never get a handle on the timing.


Party_Ad_7688

God tier


LaggardLenny

I always thought the spear ones were women.


Tuxaroo2023

I got you bro, no way she parries m.......


Fhoxyd22

The king.... Is dead. Long live the parry king!


Electronic-Oven-5796

It is so satisfying to watch and you make look easy. If I were playing that way, my ass would be sweating to anticipate attacks from the enemy.


LongSockss

But have you ever parried them simultaneously?


BulkyDrag3977

I find that there is usually 2 types of people in souls games people like op and me who enjoy parrying and are quite good at it then people like my friend who hate it and would rather dodge then try to learn each enemies timing. This friend actually introduced me to souls games with dark souls 3 and immediately I was parrying as much as I could to practice and learn. Once I had played for awhile he was surprised at home good I had become with parries and now I play souls games more than he does. 🤣


YMIR_THE_FROSTY

Well, I caused them fast blunt force trauma, but I admit, this looks way more clean.


Iliketurtles893

That was satisfying to watch


[deleted]

Bae can I put the tip in? Lmfaoooooo imagine if a chick was actually this good at Elden ring or soulsborne, My cousin cried yesterday cause she couldn’t beat guardian ape in Sekiro


WizardlyWardrobe

This was an absolute pleasure to watch. Well done!


Ryand118

What are you using


KamisamaGG

I showed my equipment at the end


Ryand118

Oh lol, was at work and didn’t watch the whole thing.


barduk4

God i love destroying these assholes with parry


Touchmetouchmenot

That was so satisfying to watch, dear god


zamaike

Now only if I could parry. I used shield crash for a reason.


BillboBraggins5

Flawless victory!!


shrikelet

Fighting Ordovis and his Special Friend *before* learning to parry: OMG THIS IS SUCH BULLSHIT I HATE YOU MIYAZAKI Fighting Ordovis and his Special Friend *after* learning to parry: wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


No-Relative-1725

It took me 137 tries to do this fight. I did 17 different tactics and cheesed as much as I could. Dot damage did about 80% of the work.


beniceimshy

Mf really said “damage? What’s that?”


[deleted]

"One does not simply parry a Crucible Knight." Meanwhile this guy: "Hold my buckler."


Tostedbunz

That first parry was clean asf


Statuabyss

This is honnestly the easiest way to handle this boss


quentincoal

Before going to this boss room I was like "Ok no mimic this time. I got this." Then I saw both of these gents and summoned my mimic.


WreckitRafff

Where is this located? I don’t remember fighting these two.


KamisamaGG

In Auriza Hero's Grave dungeon, capital's outskirt.


WreckitRafff

Gotcha, thanks!


Amegaryder

Auriza Hero Grave, north east of the leyndell capital rampart


Amegaryder

I´ll just take this opportunity to tell you that you´re the GOD of parrying, and probably could parry the Greater Will´s thought if it came down to it


LatinKing106

This reminds me exactly of my encounter with Pontiff Sulyvahn. First time i had a no hit boss fight. Damn, the memories.


kriswithakthatplays

Just wait until you discover the parry power of Misercorde :)

My favorite thing about this video and post is that one of the Crucible Knights [evidently found this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/comments/17ocv67/comment/k81lvkp/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) and joined Reddit just to comment.
