The only attacks that i cant consistently parry are bosses dash attacks. Attacks like tempest memphis dash and scars dash seem to hit me before my parry lands.
the two techs ive noticed for this is to either use a jump -> grappling -> ground slam attack, as you wont get punished for doing ground slamming too slowly, plus the atk hitboxes are more generous. Alternatively, just use the parry at the end of their "charge" duration (the period of time where they stand still before dashing at you) and if it doesnt parry you can just click dodge and 95% of the time one of the two will prevent u from taking dmg
The most reliable way to parry with Baizhi is jump -> attack because it brings her creature to her. Verina's Intro is also very reliable parry. Great video, all of it is really clear, and the examples are good.
OP so ture. Certain ranged normal attacks cant parry like gunfire and encore R, but others can. You need to play up close to be more consistent, since ranged normal parries have particle travel time.
I have no idea how I consistently parry with Verina. I'm just spamming her autos and boom. I parry. I tried slowing down, paying attention to her moveset, only attacking when the yellow circle shows, everything, really. Nothing works unless I'm relentlessly spamming her autos. I'm playing with around 200 ping if that matters. Very good video with valuable information. Good job!
Did some experimenting with Mephis, Verina's first basic atk can parry along with skill and intro. Interestingly though, I could only parry when I was point blank to Mephis. There may be a distance factor to whether some atks can parry or not.
Heres a tip: In combat, characters automatically do 1 BA right after swapping. So u can use the swap to a sword user as a parry button when the DPS on field cant reliably parry
im so bad at these boss fights bc 99% of the time my strat is just "mash buttons quick to get forte circuit charge and then do big damage" my real issue is i always immediately dodge/parry whenever i see the attack coming but then there's like a whole second more of windup and then i just die because i timed it way too early :/
you can also parry and dodge consecutively, so that if you mistime it, you'll still be able to dodge the attack. The reason this works is because your parry hitbox is independent from your character's action, so dodging after parrying won't just instantly cancel it. If you try this, sometimes you even trigger the dodge animation even after you parry the attack
I subscribed on the premise that you'll be delivering other simplified guide for noobs Even better if you made specified character guide especially melee character (I plan to main Jianxin and Taoqi). I'm still confused about outro
Lmao i was so taken aback when i saw your subscribers. I thought you would be a well established UA-camr hearing you speak, the way you made this guide. Everything felt way too perfect and man, i had 0 idea this was your first video, you have amazing potential, you got a sub! I expect really good content from you!
Ty earlier rather than later, the dodge windows is VERY generous so maybe your trying to time it too much and missing it, its not exactly when the attack is gonna hit you more like when the attack is getting close to hit you
My biggest issue is multiple enemies and weird camera. I really recommend to turn off camera settings like auto adjustment etc, it's way better to control camera myself without this crap.
I would suggest if someone wants to practice parrying, then fight crownless. Crownless' attacks after waking up from being vulnerable is also a good practice ground to practice dodges. If you you want to practice your timings then fight thundering/tempest mephis
My reaction time is too good, so I tend to parry the moment I see the circle, because I'm used to high ping affecting this. Doesn't seem to be the case in this game however.
Encore's into and skill in her ult state also can parry, I think her jump + attack and some regular attacks also do the trick, but the results have been inconclusive so far
Some bosses make it look like their attacks are parry-able too. Im looking at you Tempest Memphis, your one dash attack looks similar to your other dash attack thats susceptible to parry.
I probably should parry instead of jus goin ham on the enemies even if they overpowered like yeah i have skill its just im purely too lazy and forgetful to use it 🥱 but i do go off sometimes but anyways the vid was great im subbing leaving a like reminded me to parry more often and actually reminded me to wait thats super important (my phone is pretty much one gen behind the minimum recommended so i get the frame drops and stops yes stops but its fine wuthering waves is really good so im willing to even go back to mobile for now until i can get a console and play it if its on there? Or a pc nvr know but if you made it this far your honestly a chad and thank you for reading this😂 also have an amazing day✌️😁
I just can't hit the timings. Well like a third of even less of them to be fair, but in hologram fights it usually means that I'm coocked already (hello mourning "fuck you" bird) ah, also Taoqi and Calcharo is so damn hard to parry with
the attacks which cant parry actually varies logically, for example baizhu can pary with BA 1 but BA 3 and 4 cant as far as i have noticed maybe because youtan doesnt physically block the attack like how you would physically block the attack with a sword to parry, encore cant parry unless with her BA3
Been having more consistent success parrying with just mindless mashing on most characters or Baizhi's jump attack than actually timing it.... Parrying is weirdly inconsistent I swear... 1 outta 5 times I get trucked over when parrying at the same time frame as when it usually succeeds. Makes 0 sense on why they fail too.
Sounds like a lot of people share the same lament. Ping I'm sure sounds to be playing a big part of it. Using characters who attack a bunch seems to be a decent work around lol. I find myself accidentally parrying the most when I'm using Rover and anytime I've used Jiyan when he joins you I've just been able to mash most of the time and he attacks fast enough he just parries everything.
Eh ill just avoid parrying in general, dodging is more important to learn especially to those enemies that bait you into dodging early with their charged attack so you don’t have enough time to dodge the attack cuz of recovery frames
Man I play rythm games like OSU and I main parry related characters in most games I play if they have them, so you could say parrying in games is my specialty, but I cannot for the life of me parry in this game. Even if I left click the exact moment both circles align, I still get hit almost every time. But if I randomly button mash, half the time my character still ends up parrying. Not sure if you're meant to click before the circles actually meet, or after, but so far from my testing it doesn't seem consistent from boss to boss.
definitely a ping issue I've had dodges and parries I *know* I hit whiff cause of it. They know it's a problem, the game is currently most optimized for higher end systems iirc? and they're working on it....until than I live and defeat bosses by the grace of Baizhi lol@cloudybrains
Weird Question but can the Grapple Parry? I was doing that roguelike-ish mode and I got some Grapple upgrades and I think it was around the last bossfight where I accidentally missgrappled into the boss but instead of taking dmg it procc'd the Parry. I've been really confused since then and I can't consistently replicate it since my ping goes to red whenever it feels like it so I've been wondering if anyone else managed to do this and if it's either a bug or a feature.
Hold on, I don't remember seeing the gold circle before. Like it comes closer to another gold circle before you parry. Is this like a signal or cue to parry?
There is a little audio queue to let you know when it's ready. there is a small gauge to the left of your health bar as well that fills up. once that is full, you can perform an intro attack! The portraits of your other characters will also get a feint glow around them when the intro attack is ready to go.
The only thing stopping me from parrying is my insanely high ping and disconnects
Same.
im with 200ms but i love this game lol
Reallll. We ride with 999 ms
Pick server closest to you or try other servers that gives you better ping. I play on Asia with 20 ping, tested SEA 60 ping.
Ping doesn't matter in this game, im sea and play NA its just your connection
start
sees yellow thing
yellow thing pops
hit parry atk
being happy
boss wakes up
hits you again
yellow thing is here again
miss the yellow thing
get one shoted 💀
being sad

truly relatable
I rlly felt that 💯
The only attacks that i cant consistently parry are bosses dash attacks. Attacks like tempest memphis dash and scars dash seem to hit me before my parry lands.

When they use dash just use grappling, or use echo morph, or ult
they re just too fast bro 😢
My problem isn't parrying. My problem is Dodging!!!!! There's so shining thing to see and exactly timing the dodge is so 50/50
This ^
Specially Inferno Rider. His sword flashes and attack 0.8s later
or y know remembering the attack pattern
L skill issue
It's the opposite with me. I dodge very easily.
The most reliable way to parry with Baizhi is jump -> attack because it brings her creature to her. Verina's Intro is also very reliable parry.
Great video, all of it is really clear, and the examples are good.
Verina's slide also work well. Just hold atk a bit early.
OP so ture.
Certain ranged normal attacks cant parry like gunfire and encore R, but others can. You need to play up close to be more consistent, since ranged normal parries have particle travel time.

Ping doesn't matter in solo, combat is client sided.
her mid air attacks and basic 5 can parry if i remember correctly, as well as her heavy attack and her skill
Did some experimenting with Mephis, Verina's first basic atk can parry along with skill and intro. Interestingly though, I could only parry when I was point blank to Mephis. There may be a distance factor to whether some atks can parry or not.
Heres a tip: In combat, characters automatically do 1 BA right after swapping. So u can use the swap to a sword user as a parry button when the DPS on field cant reliably parry
Pretty sure you're talking about intro attk
@@jammed_yam some actually do outside of intro. most even cut their sequence which is helpful for others in forte gauge building.
@@jammed_yam you can try it out, it doesn’t trigger outside of combat tho
im so bad at these boss fights bc 99% of the time my strat is just "mash buttons quick to get forte circuit charge and then do big damage" my real issue is i always immediately dodge/parry whenever i see the attack coming but then there's like a whole second more of windup and then i just die because i timed it way too early :/
Yeah the boss/mobs begins animation then you think ok I need to dodge now and you dodge too early and hit kills you.
One of the most needed videos for Wuthering Waves... 👏👏Thanks for the video mate
Awesome tips, was scared this would be a " look for circle and hit, easy"
Very solid vid, ww audience is just emerging but i hope it will grow
As an Ultrakill player, I see this as an absolute win
All those years of training will finally pay off
you can also parry and dodge consecutively, so that if you mistime it, you'll still be able to dodge the attack. The reason this works is because your parry hitbox is independent from your character's action, so dodging after parrying won't just instantly cancel it. If you try this, sometimes you even trigger the dodge animation even after you parry the attack
Nice tips! And good video, no unnecessary dragging out for watch time
Dodging is manageable, but parrying for me is so difficult. Must be a skill issue and device problems, cause it feels delayed everyday time
that swinging yo thang with purpose line was golden
I subscribed on the premise that you'll be delivering other simplified guide for noobs
Even better if you made specified character guide especially melee character (I plan to main Jianxin and Taoqi). I'm still confused about outro
This is great content. Concise and informative. Thank you
what an amazing video staright to the point without any yapping ❤..loved it and subbed waiting for future vids
Lmao i was so taken aback when i saw your subscribers. I thought you would be a well established UA-camr hearing you speak, the way you made this guide. Everything felt way too perfect and man, i had 0 idea this was your first video, you have amazing potential, you got a sub! I expect really good content from you!
Beating every single boss with my 67 hp solo danjin. Life has never been more satisfying
Good video! Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Now I need to figure out how to dodge. :) Even in the dodge tutorial I just got lucky eventually.
Ty earlier rather than later, the dodge windows is VERY generous so maybe your trying to time it too much and missing it, its not exactly when the attack is gonna hit you more like when the attack is getting close to hit you
Great guide! Will you make guides in Throne and Liberty aswell once it comes out?
I keep watching videos on shit like how to parry and the fact is 90% of the time it's the camera that fucks me.
My biggest issue is multiple enemies and weird camera. I really recommend to turn off camera settings like auto adjustment etc, it's way better to control camera myself without this crap.

The problem is some bosses need to be killed quickly on a timer
solid vid m8 deliberately paced combat is sicc as fricc
i wish these boss had no patterns for us to understand
mourning axis diving parry is something i need to practice on the timing, lost count how many times i got skydived by that boss
For that chasm guardian. I took the high ground and just peppered it with Mortefi range attacks.
Simple yet very effective tips thanks !
This is what seperates WW from Genshin. I love WW
Encore's into and skill in her ult state also can parry, I think her jump + attack and some regular attacks also do the trick, but the results have been inconclusive so far
I cant wait to revisit this video when dodging becomes nonviable
1:50 u can parry with baizhi if u are close of the enemy
I wish I can think much when in a battle
since most of the things I do rely on my instincts than my thoughts
For chixia you can parry with her normal atk when her guns are glowing red where she'll fire of an enhance atk
You can parry with Verina’s intro, skill and charged heavy attacks.
You can also use a skill that has no animation delay like MC, Jiyan, or even Baizhi.
Some bosses make it look like their attacks are parry-able too. Im looking at you Tempest Memphis, your one dash attack looks similar to your other dash attack thats susceptible to parry.
As far as i am aware you can parry with some plunge attacks too.
I probably should parry instead of jus goin ham on the enemies even if they overpowered like yeah i have skill its just im purely too lazy and forgetful to use it 🥱 but i do go off sometimes but anyways the vid was great im subbing leaving a like reminded me to parry more often and actually reminded me to wait thats super important (my phone is pretty much one gen behind the minimum recommended so i get the frame drops and stops yes stops but its fine wuthering waves is really good so im willing to even go back to mobile for now until i can get a console and play it if its on there?

Using Baizhi's jump basic attack makes it easier to parry with her
My problem is dodging, I always dodge too early. I can't read the boss telegraphs properly.
I just can't hit the timings. Well like a third of even less of them to be fair, but in hologram fights it usually means that I'm coocked already (hello mourning "fuck you" bird)
ah, also Taoqi and Calcharo is so damn hard to parry with
I’m just not confident in parrying so I dodge most attacks. And since I don’t deal with parrying I don’t feel confident doing it….😅
thanks, parrying the birb is really pain.
Good video, straight to the point
the attacks which cant parry actually varies logically, for example baizhu can pary with BA 1 but BA 3 and 4 cant as far as i have noticed maybe because youtan doesnt physically block the attack like how you would physically block the attack with a sword to parry, encore cant parry unless with her BA3
really good parry guide
Babe new content creator dropped.
Thanks man, I didnt know about intro skills & liberation parries.
So it's basically a rhythm game but I suck at rhythm games.. welp
Been having more consistent success parrying with just mindless mashing on most characters or Baizhi's jump attack than actually timing it....
Parrying is weirdly inconsistent I swear... 1 outta 5 times I get trucked over when parrying at the same time frame as when it usually succeeds.

I believe you can parry with ranged units by using their heavy attacks/jump attacks/plunge.
I need help parrying Crownless with Calcharo. Someone on reddit said it's easy with N1+E1+N2+E2+N3+E3 spam but none of them parry him at all
Parrying with Encore is so hard
I need the name of the soundtrack. I was jamming through the whole video while listening to your guide
The song is Vega's Theme from Street Fighter V!
@ilikeoatmeal_ THANK YOU! Have a good day bro 😁
Thank you oatmeal with a banana chillin as a pfp
Cant be patient , i need to whack my auto :D so i only use outro , ult and dodge :D
Great quality vid man
For mage like char their first only parries and jump skill for encore
Oh lemme put my parry button far and lemme be dodge god
I really hope the game is more enjoyable on PC cuz i’m playing on my ipad during vacation 😂

Might be a ping issue, because I have the same problem. Even when I hit the circle exactly on time, I don't? Its strange indeed
@@connor.chan.jazzman Oh yeah just noticed my ping is really high in this game for some reason, that might be it.
u also gotta be close to the boss to parry
definitely a ping issue I've had dodges and parries I *know* I hit whiff cause of it. They know it's a problem, the game is currently most optimized for higher end systems iirc? and they're working on it....until than I live and defeat bosses by the grace of Baizhi lol@cloudybrains
Pull Jiyan
Mash attack
Parry anyway
Profit
Weird Question but can the Grapple Parry?
I was doing that roguelike-ish mode and I got some Grapple upgrades and I think it was around the last bossfight where I accidentally missgrappled into the boss but instead of taking dmg it procc'd the Parry.
I've been really confused since then and I can't consistently replicate it since my ping goes to red whenever it feels like it so I've been wondering if anyone else managed to do this and if it's either a bug or a feature.
both encore and verina can parry, verina is alot easier than encore however since there is a short delay with encore's attacks
Can't Verina parry?
VERINA CAN PARRY VERINA SUPREMACY
me due the optimizations issue and ping spikes,forced to play it at 30 fps to well timed to dodge/dodge+counter and parries
I think I’ve parried with chixia’s hold e and mortefi’s e when his forte is full 🤔 but I’m not 100% sure so you might wanna test that 👀
me who plays on no less than 20 frames per seconds : got it
Encore can also parry, but in her ult/melee form
i think it's because she become melee when ult
Looking fwd to more from u bro
Pro tip: you can parry with verina
Hold on, I don't remember seeing the gold circle before. Like it comes closer to another gold circle before you parry. Is this like a signal or cue to parry?
Yes, you want to wait till the outer ring touches the inner ring! seems like results may vary depending on your ping
Guns can parry just different timing than melees
great video
bruh going to rename himself to "parryking".
there is no way we both fought the lvl 45 chasm guardian using a low lvl team, mine was lvl 8 and it took so many tries getting rekt
Good stuff
Then theres me who has a potato phone which the fps is always at 20 or below when fighting boss 😢
But nevertheless i love this game so much
Very nice guide...😎👍
youre so based for using cynthia’s theme. 😌🙏
How do you know when an intro skill is ready ?
There is a little audio queue to let you know when it's ready. there is a small gauge to the left of your health bar as well that fills up. once that is full, you can perform an intro attack! The portraits of your other characters will also get a feint glow around them when the intro attack is ready to go.
Now do a guide on how to parry on mobile with 538 ping and 19 fps
How about "guide to intro & outro skill"
As a souls game player... Its too easy for me 😎
i think all casters can parry (tested on verina with both her basic attacks and skill)
With verina specially you gotta do the jump attack which is pretty hard to time
I need a guide how to parry on 250 ping
Edit:i shud maybe just atk as soon as i see yellow circle
what's intro attack😭
I'll make a quick video on it soon!
@ilikeoatmeal_ thanks!!🫶
@ilikeoatmeal_ from the way you make your videos, i can tell your channel is going to be huge as the game progresses! you've got a sub from me❤️
What is intro attack??
The attack the character you swap INTO performs, when you change a character when the gauge left side of your hp bar is full.
Just use jianxin sheild 🗿🍷
Is it true you can't parry with a gunslinger?
Compact, straight to the points, informative...
Great video
thx 😭😭
Can we parry even with basic atk
yep!
