Parrying in Elden Ring is a defensive technique that allows players to deflect enemy attacks, leaving them open for a counterattack. To parry, players must press the parry button (L2 on PlayStation, LT on Xbox, and Q on PC) just before an enemy attack lands. If timed correctly, the player will deflect the attack and briefly stun the enemy, creating an opportunity for a follow-up attack.
Parrying is a difficult technique to master, but it can be extremely effective when used correctly. It can allow players to defeat even the toughest enemies with relative ease. Additionally, parrying can be used to interrupt enemy attacks, giving players a chance to heal or reposition themselves.
