Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone~
Hope you're all doing swell and had a fab Halloween! It was raining in England again this year...shocker..


In Vahrin's Call you'll be able to block and parry incoming melee attacks. Incredibly useful if you're not a sword swinging psychopath such as myself, and prefer a slightly more tactical approach to combat.



I thought I would take today to go over those two mechanics in a little more detail, and so by the end of this you should have a better understanding of how blocking and parrying work in the game.


Let's start with blocking!



In Vahrin's Call, you'll be able to block enemy melee attacks, preventing you from taking damage.

You can do this with any weapon you have equipped (besides the bow), but it's important to remember that not all attacks can be blocked...If you find yourself pinned down by a greti, then I hope you have the firepower or stamina to deal with the situation and escape unharmed, because those giant fists will smash through anything in their way.



Speaking of stamina, you'll want to keep an eye on that if you plan to block often.
You'll find that with every attack you block, your stamina will decrease.

If you try to block an attack while your stamina is low, your enemy will tear straight through your defence and leave you open to attack.



That's about all there is to say when it comes to blocking, so let's talk parrying!



Much like with blocking, you can parry attacks with any weapon of your choice, minus the bow.

Parrying an enemy will cause them to stumble, leaving them open to attack for a short while.
You can parry an enemy by blocking just before their attack hits you, but again be careful, not every attack can be parried.



Hitting the attack button immediately after parrying an enemy will deliver a counter-attack.



Lastly, if parrying isn't your kind of thing then you might want to consider using a shield. Unlike with other weapons, shields offer a more defensive playstyle, automatically deflecting enemy attacks.



So! That concludes today's update, taking a closer look at blocking and parrying in the game.

Whether or not you decide to use these mechanics in combat is of course entirely up to you, and will largely depend on your chosen playstyle.

Regardless, I hope you enjoyed today's read!

Have a lovely weekend and we'll catch you again next Friday~
