dark souls 1 how to parry?
Press L2 (PS3) / LT (XBox) / TAB (default on PC) at the moment (the first frame) the enemy's weapon begins its motion towards you (i.e. after the windup). On successful parry, the enemy will be thrown back for about one second, and you'll hear a echoing cue sound. The enemy will be in an unique staggered state.
