How to Parry in Valheim

You can parry using almost any weapon and shield. The shield in this case is a real assistant and an integral element.

Parrying technique: you must press the block attack button a few seconds before the enemy's attack. If you missed the time and pressed too early, the worst that will happen is that you will receive less damage. If you block too late, you will receive full damage. The exact amount of damage received depends on the type of your armor and the enemy you are fighting.
